Well Worth Playing..... A whole load of shoot 'em up fun!

User Rating: 8 | Quake 4 PC
Quake 4 is not the best first person shooter you will play this year but that certainly doesn't mean its not worth playing. I played both F.E.A.R and Quake 4 at the same time and beat them both within the same relative time span. After playing both I probably enjoyed them both the same but in a different way. I knew what to expect with Quake (shooting, killing, big guns) and I knew what to expect with FEAR (creepy, atmospheric, entertaining). Both take different approached to gaming and both do it well. Quake 4 is for people who like blasting and with a bit of story and direction and thats exactly what it is. To top if off the game looks unbelievable sexy and really shows what the Doom 3 engine can do. My biggest gripe is definitely the short (took me less than 10hrs) of gameplay. I hope we get some mods or expansions (like quake 2) to extend the single player. Haven't played much MP but we shall see!
