Quake 4

Quake 4 - Xbox 360

Quake 4 needs grenade button.

Quake 4 is one of those games I put off getting and I recently picked it up at a budget price. It was a great find when I found the bonus disc was Quake 2 one of my favorite PC games ever. I only wish it would have adopted Halo's grenade button. I really missed it running through the corridors.

Quake 4 is a great looking shooter. It's on par with what people have seen from Doom 3 on PC. They use the same engine and it runs great on the 360. The lighting keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next bad guy to jump out from the darkness. There's a nice twist in the early going when you'll find yourself getting transformed into one of the "freaks". I don't want to spoil it for anyone but was really different.

Great game for your FPS collection if you don't have enough of them laying around already. I actually played through Quake 2 first because it was a blast back in the day and is still pretty good now. Quake 2 also has it's own set of achievements which was a pleasant surprise to the Achievement whores out there. I'd give Quake 4 a 3 out of 5 but because of Quake 2 it gets a 3.5 from me. Nice find overall.
