Quake

The Good
Despite my one line summary, don't get me wrong, this game is great. When the shareware was released I had it loaded on and blasted away. I loved it. The gloomy atmosphere, the great bad guys (that wacko with a chainsaw, great idea, also those mad flying greenstuff spewing wierdos, top), the great level designs. I particularly liked one of the early levels where you spent a lot of time in the water gibbing the hell out of the skeletons.

The Bad
When i got the full release i was dissapointed. As usual when i spend so long on the demo, i don't bother playing the full game. I enjoyed Wolfenstein more because although Quake has great badguys, nothing can beat killing Nazi scum. A glaring ommision from Quake's arsenal is the chainsaw, the most fun and violent of all of Doom's weapon

The Bottom Line
A great first-person shooter. Excellent follow up to Doom. id could have really done no better at the time.
