If you are used to modern day shooters, the Strogg army will pose little threat to you, especially if you’re aggressive. Quake 4 opens back with Kane as humans begin to invade, and attempt to irradicate, the Strogg home world Stroggos – one of many lazy naming conventions you’ll notice as you go. It is for this reason that Quake 4 marks an interesting place in the id universe given its continuation of Kane’s story from Quake II and drastic visual similarity to Doom 3.įor those not familiar, an alien race known as the Strogg have been attacking the human race for years and in Quake II Kane’s team, Rhino Squad, finally managed to kill their leader Makron.

Continuing that similar trend, Quake III was an arena-only shooter that took the online PC gaming community by storm whereas the plot-heavy game belonged to none other than the revamped demonic classic Doom 3. I don’t want to discredit the plot completely, but there are striking similarities to the Quake series and Doom series in every way.

As the series progressed in Quake II marine Matthew Kane was introduced as a strong protagonist to help fight off the alien race known as the Strogg. Unlike games before it, the engine didn’t ignore things like height and depth when calculating shots or movement, Quake understood the 3D plane. Developer id, of the Wolfenstein and Doom series and bascially responsible for the first person shooter (FPS) genre, finally created a true 3D FPS with the original Quake. The Quake series is quite an interesting one, especially when you consider its legacy and creation. Watch For: Copies on PC that have the bonus DVD of content and copies on 360 that have a bonus DVD containing the same content as well as Quake 2.
