"Quake" mini-review

[techb]

Quake II is a first-person shooter video game developed by id Software and distributed by Activision. It is not a direct sequel to Quake; it merely uses the name of the former game due to id's difficulties in coming up with alternative names.^[2] The soundtrack for Quake II was mainly provided by Sonic Mayhem, with some additional tracks by Bill Brown.

Much like Doom, Quake is a 1st person shooter. Quake is a successor to Doom, but gives a bit different story. I played Quake and it's sequals before I played Doom, but have played them both equality with my age. Quake also had something Doom didn't which was the epic multi-player system. I believe Quake also had more mods and maps, and the arena genre was much much more than Doom could ever be.

I play Quake2 on my own system even today and the mods and enhancements and more than up to par. From the story line to wasting enemies, Quake holds a special place in my heart. I know some files are avail via torrent if you look around, but I can give Quake2 to EZ minus cinematics if interest is shown.

The pak files I have are attached, I don't think they contain cinimatics, but they will let you play the game, they are from the CD and I forget where I got them.

Heh I had this game on the list to talk about

Yes this is indeed a fast game. I had some good times gaming with my buddies "Quake 3: arena" multiplayer. Heh a good game it was... though too fast for me.
But I really loved Quake4 though. It was similar to Doom, the surroundings were not repetitive and everything would change. It was a cool game as well.

God Quake 3: Arena..... Somebody put it on the server at my high school, EVERYBODY played it, boy or girl, bored or not. Nobody got any homework done. Then a new IT teacher came, so I constantly had to find ways to get installed on all the computers for everybody, until one day he just replaced everything (server, computers, routers, all of it) and it was lost forever...
