Summary: Sweet game
Review: This game is the best game on the pc that i've ever played! The graphics are decent but not as good as CoD or anyof the newer games but still with opengl it looks as smooth as any newer game, but with only software render it looks like a ps1 game. The gameplay is a real treat! The AI is magnificant but could be better. My favorite levels are jail through the end, you see your comrades crawling around like mindless zombies after they've been tourtured. Like once i opened a cell to let out one of my buddies. He crwaled out of his cell and started begging me to kill him, truly a work of great AI. The game also has some good expansion packs but the original quake 2 will always be the best. Multiplayer is also great, it should be since people still play a game that was made in 1998, 6years ago i mind you. So do yourself a favorand get quake 2. It may not have the graphics of quake 3 but its single player is alot better thaN UNREAL TOURNAMENT or QUAKE 3. So here is it in a nutshell, a great game with good graphics and sweeter gameplay, do yourself a favor and go by a copy, you won't regret it!

Summary: Best shooter game out ::Surpasses Quake 3::
Review: This is one action packed game. I have played all three Quakes, and this one seems to stand out more than the rest. The accuall game set aside from the multiplayer is one of the best formated ones yet. The villans keep coming back for more to give you a more action packed game. Now, if you have a older computer, with a low Mhz...then I advise you to go out and get Quake, it isn't nearly as good as Quake 2, or 3, but still you get the same formatted game. Or if you have a modern computer size, with a good or great Mhz size, please try this game, it will be one thing you will never forget. Now for Quake 3, I could go on and on about how it is all wrong. For one, you need a High Speed Connection (Cable, DSL, ISDN, T1, or even a T3 modem for exellent playing). Plus the requirements are EXTENCIVE. Now in Multiplayer, this is one action packed game when you are looking for a good multiplayer. You play against other people on the internet (if you have internet access). There are so many clans (groups) that are really fun to play with. Im in a clan myself and it's a fun time when you have friends that you can play with. I am so confident that you will love this game...here is what i have bought due to the game.... DSL Modem, 3Dfx Voodoo3 2000 Video Driver, and a NEW COMPUTER...trust me when I say you'll LOVE THIS GAME.

Summary: You must play this game!
Review: This is the quintessential first-person shooter. There are vary few people that can honestly say they haven't enjoyed this game. With a 3D card, the game goes into a new level. The multiplayer is the best you can find.

Summary: Still a must have. . .
Review: This title is still a must have for any action gamer. I use it most to play deathmatch using the "Weapons of Destruction" mod. But there has been soooo much developement using the Quake II platform, that almost any gamer can find a mod they enjoy. Moreover, with the state of the art graphics cards, you can turn the resolution all the way up and not take a performance hit. As far as game play, it is still one of my favorites. I actually prefer it over Quake III. Quake III is just a bit too fast and all the levels are very similar. Quake II has the most variety (that is, once you get out on the internet and start downloading new mods/maps/models). In addition, Q2 has a single player, story line, game in addition to its deathmatch stuff. The other reason I like this title is that you can play it reasonably well on a laptop. My laptop is just too slow when trying to handle Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, or Star Trek, Elite Force. All in all, a must have; it is fun, and there is lots of variety out there to tweak the basic version.

Summary: Excellent game, even surpasses Quake3 Arena on some fronts
Review: What can I say but, wow. First off, for all you potential buyers worried about your specs, don't. I'm running a pentium 166 MHZ MMX with 128M of ram, and while it clips somewhat at higher resolutions, this game still runs smoothly and efficiently. And as for the game itself, a true marvel. The single player cops (and improves on) the Hexen idea of doing away with the "gets-old-fast" linear function of kill monsters, find key, open door, move to next level. And as for creepiness? Definitely not in as high supply as in the original, where the music alone had you ever on the lookout for a fiend jumping out of a window ready to lob your head off. But who can't feel when you enter the processing plant, and walk past the machinery where your comrades are being dropped into the bio-vats, and you hear there screams, just a little sickened, and a renewed rage to complete the game and bring down the Makron? The weapons are standard fare, my personal favorite being the return of the BFG (I thought sadly missing from the original Quake). And kudos to iD for softening the power of the rockets. It infinitely increases the fairness of deathmatch, knowing that you aren't at the ultimate mercy of some highly trained eye w/a weapon that will always kill you from 100 health with 1 shot dead on. And as for deathmatch improvements over the last quake, superb... definitely more evenly matched and more interesting (especially with actual weapon models now, as opposed to just 1 weapon model and the axe in the original) My only complaint is that certain enemies have (on rare occasions) malfunctioned, they stop going after the player and just run in place, or back and forth, and even shooting them doesn't get them after you again....but as I said, this happens once in a blue moon, so not a real detractor. And they DO have a much more evolved AI. In some levels, they're even set to run away from you at first and lay ambush at a later spot, in the sneakiest of ways. And as for excelling over Quake 3 arena, the mission based style, while minorly cliched (the "Save the human race from the horrifyingly cruel aliens" routine), is far better than some boring slugfest with a bunch of bots, which is all Quake 3 provides, showing that id has extended its middle finger to single player gamers and given multiplayer fanatics all the cards. Shameful. Even so, Quake 2 is worth the money, and great for all those who don't have a system to meet Quake 3's EXCESSIVELY demanding requirements

Summary: Quake Forever
Review: Wow man, that's a cool game. A first-class game. Better than Quake3, better than Quake, better than Unreal. That's The Game - the one and only 3d-shooter which managed to keep me in front of the monitor for an entire day. And neither parents, nor friends, not even my unbearable grandmother could distract me. The graphics are a bit old-fashioned, but the VIOLENCE is superb. It's real fun watching the bad idiots who have had the bravery to confront you die in agony! It's real fun watching the walls repainted in red after you've shot with your BFG in a tightly inhabited room. It's real fun smashing your friends in a deathmatch game. Wow, man! Don't lose precious time reading this. Just run to the nearest shop as fast as you can and buy Quake2!
