Quake 2 remaster

[Mr Squashie]

I've been playing through Quake 2 with my little boy on the PlayStation Classic and absolutely loving it, now it appears there's a proper remaster of it! I'll be downloading this as soon as I've got the PC reassembled (hopefully tomorrow if the thermal paste arrives). Amazing gameplay, one of the best soundtracks of all time, what's not to love?!

I’ve never played Quake.

May have to download it for a blast when I get bored at lunch today.

I played the RTX update a while back, it was still a very old game in a slightly more modern clothes.

That soundtrack though 💋

The new one has updated AI so should feel a bit more modern

They need to do a reboot of UT2004.

Opposing Worlds map - pretty much perfect.

Ah, the sniper on UT2004.

Good times.

Ps. It’s Facing Worlds 😘

Fond memories of Wolfenstein 3D, Quake and Quake 2, Doom etc.

Might have to give it a go on the PS4 with the boy

It’s on Gamepass, I’ve been playing, brings back fond memories

I don't really remember Quake 2 to be honest. First one I played over and over, and then I was massively into Quake 3 Arena. That and Command & Conquer were my PC gaming addictions back in the days!

Those were the halcyon days of FPSs. No monetisation. No grindy unlock trees. Just red and blue teams fighting it out with the emphasis on skill.

Simple, fun and addictive gameplay. Something that I think has been lost in some ways over recent years.

Never a truer word spoken.

Chumps nowadays think it’s all about skins and fancy gun attachments.

If I remember correctly Quake was the first first person shooter that utilized both keyboard and mouse. Good times!

I wonder if the cheats from the original will work on this, still remember a load of them
