I have them all I played them all and I get 70 to 75 frpm on a msi nforce 2 amd 2400 1500 ram leadtek 6800le poped 16 pipelines with rivatuner and this thing runs silky smooth. I build computers and you out there with all that tech squak, give me a break. 10 stars to the builders of this game you guys are the best hands down, keep up the good work and look forward to everything you do, Quake Wars is looking sweet. Oh by the way Fear was supose to be a system hog Not! My system flys on high settings,keep your system clean and have a great Power Supply Lots of ram great hard drives and you should be able to run anything out there. If your a FPS Fan get this game it will blow you away, its huge Fear was short this game is long, and can play it again and again on easy norm and hard setting.

High Hardware Requirements, yet Worth It!

I have seen this played and played this game before on other machines. I got it to play on Linux (which it installs and runs on perfectly).

What I did not expect was the high hardware requirements. Be sure to have a good gaming machine before getting this.

I am not a gamer, just play every once in a while, so was not prepared.

I can't review this game based on other games.

What I can say is that shooting stuff is fun, and this gives you that with nice eye candy ;)

From classic to atractive

La saga Quake siempre a sido de las mejores y a pesar de ke fue saturada con la 3ra entrega, esta 4ta entrega concluye la trama original ke se vio en Quake 2. Esta vez no estara uno solo, sino ke la potente AI de los NPC te ayudaran a sobrevivir y revelar la trama del juego hasta su "final". Con las mismas graficas ke relucieron en Doom3, Quake 4 se ve mejor aun.

Outdated Graphics - Old Story Line...

God, to think so many talented people, put in so much time, and so much hard work, and hours of coding and meetings, and pizza dinners, and miss their families, for this? Dude, WTF?

Using the Outdated Quake III engine for this game was the first mistake, this game looks like it's right out of the 1990s.

The Story line is interesting enough, but stupid.
If you could land a bunch of people on a planet, well, why?
Just keep pounding it with nukes from orbit, just like they said in ALIENS, 'it's the only way to be sure.'
A 15 minute game: jump to system, get in orbit, blow the planet to bits, done - go home for dinner!

Otherwise the weapons look like regurged versions of Q3 weapons,
with some slight change in lighting and sound effects.

The characters are improved, with some new maps,
but hey, it's a bug hunt.
Seen one FPS, seen'em all - if it moves, shoot it.
If it bleeds, shoot it again!

I mean, come on.
Really, can we get past the whole 'run around and shoot stuff' model?
How about something with some challenge?

Something that's oh, I don't know, FUN?

Skip this twitch master, and try Myst V - End of Ages.
A real game that is a challenge, with top notch graphics and award winning sound.

They did right with the DOOM engine

They did with the doom engine the way it should be. Not just Cramp space.

The enhancing of the weapons as you went along was excellent.

Dimitri is right

I'm going to make a small review here. Quake 4 is an enjoyable FPS game for us SMART players. The graphics are highly reminiscent of Doom 3 but at a slightly more modified rate. The gameplay is fun as hell. Everything else is just good to the very least.

The only drawbacks in this game are the high system requirements and it has a few bugs. In the case of the Xbox 360 version, the players are screwed with even more drawbacks. However, in the PC version, we can thankfully download some patches to fix the bugs in the game.

Overall, a great but not perfect game. The PC version is better than the 360 version. Oh, and don't listen to the reviewers who give Quake 4 low ratings; they're either stupid Halo fanatics or losers who can't play a good shooter.

4.5/5

What happened?

I just bought a new Dell XPS 700 so when I got this game I wanted to be blown away, but that didn't happen. After playing FEAR I guess not many first person shooters can come close to that. Do yourself a Favor and skip this game. The story line is good but that is all it has going for it. Half the time I spent walking around in circles and not getting anything done. I've played it three times and I can't get over how poor the graphics are compared to FEAR they came out at about the same time. I guess the producers just wanted to rest on the Quake name. They could have done better. That being said if you like FPS than buy it, but don't expect a FEAR like game. Three Stars.

Okay, but.......

It's an okay game, but I have found it to be very unstable with frequent crashes.

Currently the Best FPS out!!

I had to reboot twice to get this installed. 'Way too much work for a so-so game. Pretty graphics, boring gameplay. Shoot-it-up, fine. I started shoot-em-ups with the original Wolfenstein. It was immeasurably better than this. I wish that it was the old 'try-before-you-buy' days. I wouldn't have bought. Find another...better would be easy.
