If you didn’t pick up an Xbox 360 at launch, it’s possible you might have missed out on one of the system’s best launch titles, QUAKE 4. With it becoming harder and harder to find a new copy of the game, we’re happy to announce we’re re-releasing it at a low price of $19.99.

360 players can unleash their inner Strogg on Tuesday, June 19th in North America. In Europe, the game will be arriving on 360 and PC in the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Benelux territories.

Quake 4 was one of the worst games in the series. It was bland, boring and too generic. The only awesome thing about was getting to replay Quake II.

Marketing speak man marketing speak but yeah some peeps think its the best one and would probably like to get it.

Eurogamer said it best:

This eight-year gap between Quake single-player offerings gave Raven the perfect opportunity to deliver something very special that not only reinvigorated the brand, but showed off next generation FPS design. That Quake 4 is merely a glossy, standard, by-the-numbers trudge through past glories is an irresponsible way to treat such a revered franchise; to then cock up the conversion to the 360 subsequently and then charge extra for the privilege is bordering on scandalous.

I prefer what the Russian magazine, ИГРЫ, had to say:

Это все, что поклонники любили в одном пакете, что обеспечивает привлечение однопользовательской истории и хаотическая высокого полета мультиплеер.

Lol I enjoyed quake 4. It was fun but nothing special.

$19.99 are you kidding me? They should be asking $9.99 at the most, besides come steam specials you can get it as low as $4.99...

It certainly wasn't the greatest FPS but it was average. The graphics were really great for their time, and I particularly remember being impressed by the lighting in some scenes. Comparing it with the calibre of today's games, I think they cannot justify $19.99 for this game...

Quake 4 was one of the worst games on the 360.

Fixed, that effin game had control issues framerate slow downs, that was unoptimized to the max

True story.

If you didn’t pick up an Xbox 360 at launch, it’s possible you might have missed out on one of the system’s best launch titles, QUAKE 4.

*cough*BULLSHIT*cough*

Considering it launched along side titles like:

Amped 3
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Kameo: Elements of Power
Need for Speed: Most Wanted
Perfect Dark Zero
Project Gotham Racing 3
Burnout Revenge

Q4 was by far one of the worst titles, that includes titles like Most Wanted, Burnout & GUN which where basically re-releases from the original Xbox.

I've still got my Quake 4 for the Xbox no idea where II is anymore, but it is horrid, I tried it on the PC afterwards to see if it was any better, only marginally. The game is horrible, Prey I'd understand a re-release of, but I've still got that too.

Maybe they are trying to work up hype for Doom 4...

I really can't wait for this game

 

[MOnk]

You can't wait for a game that been out for 7 years? If you haven't bought it by now then you obviously can wait.

I think you've taken waiting along different routes, unless you are from 2005??
