What fun!

User Rating: 8.5 | Quake 4 PC
By Shrodinger | Review Date:
My new computer was just screaming for a new(er) game to rip apart. I found Quake 4 for 14.99 at the local Store With the Greatest Purchase Potential. What a deal. Right out of the box you get a return to a classic series and old school gameplay. Things to know:

1.You are Matt Kane, one badass marine with a ugly mug and the the awesome ability to carry 10 guns. 2.Q4 takes off as the human forces move in to secure stroggos. Your dropship is slammed by a rocket and all goes black... Upon waking on the planet surface, you are tasked with regrouping with the rest of your squad, as they had left you for dead. From there you accomplish numerous tasks in true arcade fashion that ultimately lead to the destruction of the strogg resistence.

3.Q4 sports some fantastic visuals. Based on an updated Doom3 engine, you will see stunning lighting and particle effects, heat distortion, and lovely texturing.

4.The multiplayer is nostalgic, however it feels clunky, not as smooth as Q3

5.You may feel horribly alone online as it is very rare that you will find any server with more than 5 players.
