Posted October 3, 2005 From Shacknews: Quake 4 GONE GOLD! [05:04 pm] For all the doubters out there thinking Quake 4 would not hit its mid-October release date, fear no more as Activision just let us know that the game has gone gold and is off to manufacturing. The PC version of the game will be shipping to stores October 18. The long awaited sequel to QUAKE II, QUAKE 4 enlists gamers in the role of Matthew Kane, a member of the Earth Defense Force's legendary Rhino Squad, to penetrate deep into the heart of the Strogg war machine and engage in a series of heroic missions to destroy the barbaric alien race. "On October 18, QUAKE is dialing it up to 4.0 on the Richter Scale with this new chapter in Earth's war against the Strogg," said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. "Fusing an epic war-story driven single player campaign, and fast-paced QUAKE III Arena inspired multiplayer, QUAKE 4 delivers a gaming experience fans will be raving about for years."

Posted October 4, 2005 Quake is the dumbarse of the FPS world, but by christ do I love it. In fact, I've cracked Q3A open again in anticipation of the fourth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never closed the box :p And although I can see you're a Quake lover, I still have to make a comment on the 'dumbarse' bit If you play one on one pro (or near it), believe me, there are quite a few things to think of (timing shields and such) And... This has been in development forever! It better be good! No. Duke Nukem Forever has been in development forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like to leave my brain on the shelf when playing Quake, no wonder "id" chose such a name (psychology students... GO!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 4, 2005 Yeah, but that's not fun! I like to leave my brain on the shelf when playing Quake, no wonder "id" chose such a name (psychology students... GO!) It's subjective of course but I get more satisfaction out of fragging a guy I knew was coming and can kill him without him even seeing me (nades round corners and such), rather than random spammage. One on one turns an fps almost into an RPG. The whole advantage thing 'keeps my pecker up' NOW DUEL ME IN UT2004 JORDAN!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
