This is it. Video gaming's finest hour. The answer to all of our hopes and dreams arrived on June 22, 1996. The long-awaited follow up to id Software's industry-changing Doom II, Quake didn't just change the games industry, it completely revolutionized it. Online mulitplayer, modding communities, full 3D engine with LIGHTING! Quake dictated the direction video games would take for the foreseeable future. A frightening, coked-up rush across a gothic Lovecraftian universe. If you haven't played Quake, you haven't really played anything.
Wow, three great games under one roof! Quake, Quake II, and Quake III Arena. There isn't really any fancy extras on these discs (at least I haven't found much of anything). However, the first Quake now includes "winquake" and "glquake" as part of its default install - I found the included version of "glquake" to be buggy, so I upgraded to the most recent release. Of course the original DOS version is also included. The first Quake CD also includes the original NiN soundtrack! These were three of the games that unrolled the "true 3D" genre - still a blast to play!
This is the beast of PC games that will never die. With so many sites devoted to this classic, there will always be something new to keep you playing. I started gaming with Quake in 2000 with a Pentium 166 with a 3dfx Voodoo card! Forward to 2008, with my grubby mits on a Voodoo 3000, I'm back to OpenGL once again! I never get tired of the ambience and gameplay of Quake. I just hope new generations can experience the awesomeness that is Quake. 10/10
Bought this feeling nostalgic for my younger years. I played the **** out of this game when it first came out and was hoping to relive those fun times. With a little help from the Quakeone website I was able to get it up and running on Windows Vista and it was just as much of a blast as it was back in the day. A true classic of the FPS genre.
Hey, thanks alot. I've always loved the Quake games for PC, and now I have the first three all in one box. These games are great classics that anyone would enjoy. Thanks again!
