Great port, great game

For anyone who was disappointed by the N64 port of this PC game, do not dismay, it is now here for the playstation and it is great. The graphics are stunning and the gameplay is just as difficult as the origional. Maybe one of the best features is that the whole game seems darker than the PC version, in essence making it scarier. This makes it a lot of fun to play and a lot scarier when you aren't expecting a gernade to the face. Multiplayer is fun as well, but the options that a PC provides just isn't there. Of course, you don't have to pay for internet fees to play on the playstation... Overall, this is a great game, just not for those easily grossed out by blood and whatever else these monsters may excrete. Some of the fun things from the first game are missing: creatures such as the Shambler and weapons such as the super-nail gun, but the basics are still around, and every other aspect has been improved on. This is one great game.

It's about time! Quake 2 rocks on Playstation.

After playing aQuake 2 demo on my PC, I couldn't wait to grab the full version for the Playstation. Fortunately, the first person shooter on the PS platform lived up to its reputation. Amazing graphics and immersive gameplay make it my favorite. Makes Duke Nukem look Silly.

A Pleasant explo... I mean, surprise!

WOW! I though this game would be mediocre compared to the PC version, but hey, this game is great. There is some pixellation, but not enough to keep your eyes off the excitement happening around you. The sound is magnificent! Rock tunes will keep you pumped throughout the whole game and every gunshot is clear to the ear! The only problem is the constant loading on every level and door that pisses me off especially when a good tune is on.All in all, hey, if you're looking for a gory Medal of Honor, look no further, Quake 2 will not dissapoint you!

Not even worth it

I bought this mainly from all of the good comments here. I was sadly dissapointed when I played the game. All it is is running around shooting things with pretty lame weapons. There's nothing to really figure out and there's not even anything really interesting to look at. There's only one path through the game.. how stupid is that? One person likened it to Metal of Honor which I also have... it is NOTHING like Metal of Honor... that's actually a very good game with alot of thought behind it... this thing looks like it was slapped together in a few hours by the developers... In other words - don't buy it... get Metal of Honor instead... you'll be glad you did.

Pretty good, but too short.

I've always liked first-person games, going all the way back to Tunnel Runner for the Atari 2600, and have several for various videogame systems. This game was pretty good, but I conquered it in just over 2 weeks. I expect much more longevity. I got much more gameplay from Doom and Duke Nukem: Total Meltdown.

Multiplayer Carnage

The first time I ever played this game was at a friends house. After a couple of matches of struggling with the controls I was good to go. Ever since then my friends and I would wire in for 4 player tournaments. Not many other games use the multi-player tap, but this one uses it and that makes the game in my eyes. Amazon carries it for around 25 bucks and if you have at least 3 other friends and 4 controlers between all of you...it is a must. The one player game insn't bad. It's challenging with all of it's hidden rooms. If you can beat the game on hard it gives you a multiplayer unlock which enables you to utilize hidden controls for multiplayer such as unlimited ammo, one shot kill, players start with all weapons, and many more. I gave this game a 4 because I would say that it is an awesome game, but after virtually mastering multiplayer it just dosen't hold the same challenge. Also I would rate the one person player game at a 4 star. Either way this is an awesome game especially if you have the multi-tap and at least 3 friends to plug in with.

Four player action... This is the future!

This game is great if you want to talk trash as you blow away your buddies. Take off the gravity and you can really jump. Companies who produce games for the playstation need to produce more of these types of head to head to head to head 4 player games. This is the future of gamming. At $26 dollars this game is a steal on Amazon. Get all four contolers and four buddies and put on your seat belt. The only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is I really am not interested in playing the single player game. I am not one of those dudes who can play with himself for hours and hours... I hope you will enjoy!

The BEST game EVER!

WOW!!! This game is by far one of the best games I've played for the Playstation! If you enjoy shooting evil creatures (and I don't mean Fred Durst), then this game is for you. Great graphics, awesome gameplay, and a plethora of weapons for releasing the animal inside. No need to worry about the flowers and jumping plumbers in this one, folks...this is a total carnage fest, with a lot of strategy thrown in. BUY IT!!!!
