As much as I love the game.... that frame rate!

User Rating: 6.5 | Quake 4 X360
You know I realy have a dilema when it comes to Q4. The game itself is just what I had wanted from Quake, stunning environments and some great action combine to give me everything I had been expecting.

But... the frame rate!

The only problem I have with Q4 on the 360 is that darn frame rate, I mean seriously I cant beleive they released the game without optimising it properly. It totaly ruins an experience that I so desperately tried to enjoy. Dont get me wrong its still playable and for the most part a very good game. but the way that things can start to stutter can realy pull you out of the experience, and thats a huge problem.

Even the multiplayer can be choppy at points which as you can imagine in a fast paced shooter like Quake can make the rail gun next to useless for a start.

Its just a crying shame that the game wasnt properly finished and rushed for launch as theres no reason the 360 should be struggling with these graphics.

I guess its still worth picking up if you dont have a PC that can play it but be forwarned and remember that you will have to overlook the technical issues to realy enjoy the game.
