the first pc game that i've ever played in my life!the bfg from this game is the greatest weapon ever!

User Rating: 9 | Quake II PC
this is one of the best fps's ever created!half-life has a modified engine of this game;)so think about it!
this is the first pc game that i've ever played,back in 1998.i was 9 years old & didn't even knew how to handle the mouse:)i was amazed by this game at that time & still i am at this hour.the gameplay is flawless!the music is missing(you can find it at the ps1 version) & the graphics are simply classic.those environmets are in the hall of fame from my point of view along with those from mdk!they just don't do games like that anymore:(
i think that quake 2 shares the title "game of 1997" along with tomb raider 2.
quake 2 is as good as quake 1-it's fantastic to create a sequel as great as the original...just like tomb raider 2.what i'm doing??why am i comparing quake & tomb raider?i'm i nuts?
...
the playstation version of quake 2 has only 1+ over the pc version-the music.
in rest,the pc version is near flawless.
you are a space marine that makes an unexpected landing with a pod on on a planet populated by the strogg.bad guys that look almost like you,well with some exceptions...
through out the game you have to take acces cards & solve some puzzles if can say that,overall it plays,it feels like doom but the graphics have nothing to do with doom.in fact,both games are made by id software so that's the explanation.
all the weapons in this game are great.it's real pleasure to fire with each of them but the bfg...omg!the bfg!(from big **** gun?i don't know).this is the best version of the bfg & i think the best weapon ever-topping the gravity gun of half-life 2 i think.you erase every enemy from your path with 1-2 shoots.most of the time with only 1 shoot.it's epic!god bles the one who made this weapon!i can't remember if there's a bfg in quake...but there's the nailgun,another epic weapon.in doom 1 & 2 the bfg was not so great.at doom3 i didn't got it,yet!& at quake 3,it looked like a normal weapon,it doesn't had the epic proportions of this one from q2.it was like a plasma gun:(
the raygun-again,another fantastic weapon but you need precision for that one.
the multiplayer is fun,fun,fun!my favourite map is the edge!when i'm playing that map,i'm having more fun than playing worms,lol!
the graphics are...a little bit,no,a little bit more dated.that's the reality but hey,who needs graphics when the gameplay is flawless?the mouse is fully functional & you have a great feeling,i really don't know how to explain it.it also can jump.the buggs,glitches are almost 0.i didn't rated this game with 9.5 or 10 because it's just a mindless shooter:)
at the end of the game,you will fight makron,a strogg robot,a leader of the strogg,he's not the big boss even if it's the end of the game!fire at him 6 bfg's & he's done,he can rest in peace.after that,don't go in the escape pod,first,go in the bunker & shoot in the wall at the dead end.you will enter a secret area,just before the end of the game.in a room you can see the creators of the game on pannels-in the other room,there's a strogg man holding a strogg woman & sitting on a throne:)you can't shoot them,unfortunatelly:(then,go in the escape pod & "the end" will appear on the screen,lol!
i think that quake 2 is in top 5-greatest fps's of all time!
ps:i've forgot about the quad-damage power-ups!it increases 2x times the damage of your weapon!so image shooting with the bfg when you have quad-damage!omg!
