Awsome in almost everyway and highly recommended.

User Rating: 8.4 | Quake 4 PC
Quake 4 is my first game in the franchise, knowing that and the fact that it is the least favorable of the four games among the quake series fans; I deeply regret not playing the previous three games cause I enjoyed this sci-fi shooter like no other. It is innovative and original. I can only imagine the impact the game had on the pc gamers when it arrived back in the days, and I can also now rationalize all the hype, the wait, the gossip and the expectation that quake 4 had on people prior its release date. Quake franchise has its own huge fan base; it is in my opinion very understandable. I know some guys who played the game over and over, and they still play it until now.

Technically, the game has very refreshing colors, the outdoor scenes are lit beautifully, while the indoor has a very shadowy and creepy atmosphere, I don't always seem to know where the Stroggs will pop out from. The game control is fairly easy and good. Quake 4 has a good of variety of enemies of different strength, power and technique which make the game the more challenging. The main character Matthew Kane has access to whole range of different guns ( Blaster, Machinegun, Shotgun, Nailgun, Grenade Launcher, Railgun, Rocket Launcher, Lightning Gun, Hyperblaster , Dark Matter Gun). The game texture is fantastic, and the whole environment is just superb. The audio and musical score is more than satisfying, it communicate with game action nicely. Storyline wise, I have to say that I couldn't find anything original or new in quake 4, it is good enough but it could have been better; but then again I guess it is an installment in a franchise.

I think Quake 4 is one of those games that will stay around for a little longer; it's addictive, refreshing and simply irresistible. I highly recommend this game for enthusiasts and entry game players alike.
