  1. If you've never played Quake on any machine before, this is one of the best versions available this side of the original PC game.
  2. Though the enemies aren't programmed well enough to follow you around many corners and elevators like they would in Turok or Bond, the surprises and just sheer craziness of attacking enemies makes Quake64 a game that freaks you out.
  3. If Quake is a game experience you don't want to miss, and if a Nintendo is all you have, then Quake 64 is your ticket.
  4. It's Quake, what else do I have to say?

    Id's follow up to Doom goes fully 3D in an atmospheric maze of dungeons full of traps and secrets to discover.

Not quite as good as the Saturn version, but a very good N64 FPS nonetheless. Full Review »
