Although the gameplay of quake 4 is still basically the same, its just a wonderfully old school game with amazing graphics! The single player is pretty fun and has its great moments, and if you can run doom 3 great, no doubt you can run this game, since its the same engine, tho slightly improved. The sound is good, except for the machine gun, quite possible one of the most annoying gun sounds ever concieved.
Now MP seems to be the thing that most people are totally dissapointed about, the thing here is, the MP is just quake 3 and this really isnt a bad thing!
Quake3s MP was fast and fun which is exactly how quake 4 is, people are always wanting something NEW, i mean this is just one of those games that comes along to remind you of how the good old days of multiplayer was, is that a crime? Sometimes, I, really dont want a new concept every single game! BF2 is great CSS is great, but this is just an old school shooter that you will surely be addicted to, the only thing is to never overhype a game!
i bought the collectors edition for 44 dollars( the regular CD one was 37 dollars) and the main reason you would want to get it is because it just loads faster overall than the CD version, Quake 2 is also included, so thats worth it if you are a fan of it.
If youre a fan you should probably buy this game sometime soon, if not then just wait for it to get cheaper, overall its a pretty fun game.
