Quake 4 Visual Preview

Posted by Zonk on from the who-doesn't-like-pictures dept.

Andre Medeiros writes "CNet is featuring a visual preview of the upcoming entry in the Quake series." From the article: "Bodies everywhere - As you can see, Quake 4 stays true to a well-worn first-person shooter trope: no matter where you go, your expendable fellow Marines will litter the ground and silently warn that you're about to be ambushed by plasma-wielding aliens."

  1. So, uh... by Jmechy · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Quake 4 is that new expansion pack for Doom 3? Seriously though, is it necessary that the visual style of the game be exactly like that of D3? Couldn't they have changed the look of the levels, or at least made it look like the characters weren't skinned by the same person?

  2. Re:Online play? by ncmusic · · Score: 2, Interesting

    In fact the multiplayer is going to have Q3 physics (which will be different from the single player). So you will again be able to rocket jump, strafe jump, etc. I'm excited.

  3. I'm more intrerested in Quake Wars by aztektum · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Enemy Territory: Quake Wars looks to me like the game I'll buy.

    (warning: Flash site) W:ET and WoW are the only games I play online lately. And I'm only trying WoW out on a friends acct to see if its really all that.
