PC Critic Reviews

The vehicles really set Quake apart from its cousin "Doom," as levels with vehicles almost always involve huge outdoor areas swarming with bad guys.

Although there may be times throughout the game where you will feel as though things are getting repetitive and drawn out, the play gets changed up at the right times and gives you a refreshing perspective to keep you going.

An addiction, a perfect sequel, both in story and gameplay, and a game you will want to explore over and over.

Quake 4 just screams its superiority over other first person shooters.

Quake 4 really delivered on all fronts for me in terms of purely frenetic gameplay. I jumped at the cutscenes, I cried out expletives when I was getting owned by the Strogg, I gasped when the storyline took a major plot twist, and I was moved by the stunningly beautiful graphics.

Quake 4 is not pretentious. It's a hardcore shooter in which you don't have to be a hardcore gamer to experience.

The game’s single-player mode is fantastic, effectively using the Doom 3 engine to make a game of its own. It really showcases the engine well and shows its versatility.

Quake IV shows no mercy.

The multiplayer action is fast-paced and furious, just like Quake multiplayer should be and the single-player campaign feels just like it should, even if it is linear.

If you’re looking for a classic-style FPS with gorgeous visuals, Quake 4 is your cup of tea.
