Great finale

Great (sort of) final version of this classic. Action packed, a bit console-y linear but good fun. Amazing that thay managed to get all these graphics in 6 GB. A wothy and of the one that started it all, with 3D enemies, when hardware could just barely support that.

the weakest of the series... still fun!

Quake VI is an FPS born from the 2000 era of video gaming (that I personally hate) and it shows in its gameplay and design. The game, compared to its predecessors (not takin in consideration Quake III for obvious reasons) is well behind them, with a really slow intro ( you need to wait until a certain plot point before starting to really enjoy it) and shallow design: basically they taken the interesting design of the second title and make it bland, uninspired. The story is completely forgettable and sometimes even annoying, but that's not really why one plays these games, so you can give it a pass. However, after that kind of long ''intro'' said before(basically when you start to be alone against the enemies and without companions), the game starts to show the classic gameplay and feeling of a true ID software game, for most parts. So, do I recommend it? yes! absolutely, even being the weakest of all the other Quake, it is STILL a Quake!

Doom 3... except

Context: I played Doom 3 first, then went back to this game. If that's you, this info will be useful. Imagine Doom3 except that the graphics are 1 grade lower, the horror gameplay (ie slower and more methodical and things jumping out of cupboards) is 2 grades lower, and the gameplay is cranked up to be much more of a traditional shooter (ie fast and satisfying gunplay) then that's what Quake 4 is. So, Doom 3 but faster? Kind of. There is still very much a 'horror' environment, some rather gruesome stuff, very well executed. But the gameplay is more of a shooter. So instead of moving from one section of the facility to another via a cutscene, you run outside and get into a tank or mech and shoot stuff. You even get a scene where you are shot into the enemy base in a landing vehicle (cutscene) but it's very impressive for the day. Also, you often have squadmates. So you get a sense of being a part of a major military operation, which is exactly what Quake 2 was all about. Therefore, whilst I would say I really enjoyed both this game and Doom3, Doom 3 was a poor sequel, in that it deviated too much from the source. Whereas Quake 4 really expanded on what Quake 2 had done before. If you can get past the aged graphics, I would say definitely give this a go, very underrated.

Last of the old school

If you got the time, try this one out. Quake 4 is a fast paced, run-and-gun shooter that takes a lot from its predecessor. Is it the best? Not even close. But it's a step up from Doom 3. If you want a solid, old school shooter in the realm of Quake 2 it should not disappoint.
