Quake 4

Also known as: Quake IV

Eight years after Quake II, Quake 4 picks up the plot but drops the ball

But is that expecting too much? Quake 4 was designed to make things go boom and look pretty doing it. On that level, it succeeds, but no better or worse than any other first-person shooter. The robust multiplayer still lives up to the Quake legacy, but as a single-player experience, Quake 4 could have been a lot more ambitious and, in turn, a lot more satisfying.
