The Good
I loved Quarantime when I played it! Before Carmaggedon hits the stores, this game showed what a mad driver can do. It had a good usage of an early 3-D graphic engine, bits of pretty gore, different missions and a lot of fun. Quarantime (also known by me and some friends as "the mad cab driver game") is a must-play for every action games lover.
The Bad
There isn't too much to say against this game. I could only complaint about some bugs here and there that makes the cab get stuck in some places, or maybe it may take you a while to get used to controls.
The Bottom Line
A great game... you will drive, gunfight and complete different missions while you get out of the city.

Up there for best game of all time, if you can get it to work
The Good
A doom clone with a storyline, how novel (Hey, Quake Developers, get over here, something to look at, a FPS with a plot, how REVOLUTIONARY)
DOOM on WHEELS
Evil-Crazy-Taxi!
The Bad
Its a Bitch to get running.
The Bottom Line
Quarantene is quite simply, DOOM on wheels, or GTA in the First person.
As a Humble cabbie of Kemo City, a once prosporous city, with high crime, that was turned into a escape from NY/LA style prison by the evil omnicorp corporation, its your job to get the hell out of there before the Plauge (which turns you into a homocidical maniac that wants to kill anything that isnt a homocidical maniac) gets you.
Going through a variety of levels, from the Downtown core, to the Cities Graveyard, amoung ferrying passengers, Packages have to be delivered, bad dudes eliminated, guns need to be bought, your taxi repared, etc. The Goal, to get enough cash to bribe the guard at Kemo's only gate, and get the hell out of there.
GET IT, Highly recomended. Great for fans of FPSs, Crazy Taxi, Shadowrun, Fallout, Privateer, and GTA
DOS · by Chad Henshaw (27) · 2002
A fast-paced, maniacal 3d 'driving' game.
The Good
It is very fast paced, and also very gory.. but instead of the usual rip-the-guts-off-a-civilian it's more like maniacal, since you basically drive over every pedestrian you see and put the flamethrower and the sawblade to good use...
The Bad
The game can be a mess sometimes, not only graphically but sometimes the stupid taxicab gets stuck into things and the driving takes some time to learn.
Also the passenger time limits get very annoying in a bit.. and the game, finally, is quite repetitive.
The Bottom Line
A fun 3d shooter disguised into a driving game where you blast the living xxxx out any and everyone you see.
