Quake 4 is a sci-fi military first-person shooter, and is the direct sequel to Quake 2. The game features very interesting elements of horror and gore that can be quite shocking.

Some of the best parts of the game is when you're not alone, and are working as part of the Rhino squad. In comparison to Doom games, this is a very welcome way to play. Although, you do get plenty of alone time when sent to specific objectives which often include fighting some crazy powerful enemies on your own.

The story is that Earth's military was able to kill the Strogg leader, and is taking the war back to Stroggos (the Strogg homeworld). You play as Marine Corporal Matthew Kane and are part of the elite Rhino Squad, and you are given critical missions to help Earth forces win the war. This does not of course go like a walk in the park, which leads to the Kane being captured and put through Stroggification, a brutal process of turning a human into a Strogg.

The game is awesome from start to finish, with a few vehicle segments that are ok but they are showing their age. Inside the walls though, this game is up to par with many modern shooters, and in fact the AI moves the enemies in such a way that's the difficulty level is quite good for even seasoned players of FPS games.
