Simplistic, quick, fun 3D shooterNov 27, 2001
By Jeff Johnson
"Jeff Johnson"
This is a totally new spin on Quake II. It is different than the computer version, new levels, new missions, but the same new enemies from Quake II on the computer. There are around 16 levels with 30 missions. What I mean by missions, is that in each level you have stuff to do, such as collect explosives, then place them to blow up a power grid, or realign a satellite dish. If this sounds complex, don't worry just walk up to something and it is done (quite brainless). This game is your stereotypical shooting game, you run in a first person game, with one of seven guns you can pick up and with this game you get a full 360 degrees motion with your gun, so its more than shooting straight. With other shooting games you fight against waves of monsters, in this game there are pretty much 10 - 20 creatures per level, making the levels go by quickly. This is a pretty good game, the only real downfall is that there are only 10 - 20 enemies per level, making the game go by pretty quick and easy. However the second to last level is totally different from the previous levels making it nearly impossible for the player to complete (Several death traps when the previous levels have no death traps).

Very UNsurprising graphicsJun 27, 2000
I had played Quake 2 on the computer before I rented it on the N64...expecting the graphics to excede those of the computer, but in actuality, they were rather mediocre. Now I'm glad I didn't buy it for the N64. The controls were rather dificult to learn as well (as compared to playing it on the computer first).

A nice touch to the Quake seriesAug 24, 2001
Quake2 is the coolest game I have ever played! Sure the single player mode is a little short, but I dont care! That just gives me a reason to play it again on a harder difficuty level. It is gory, you have to admit, but it is a nice game. The multiplayer mode is awesome! I love it!

Frag!Aug 04, 2001
By A 12-year old gamer This game is great! Even though there are barely any levels to beat in one player mode, but multiplayer is just fun! It's a great game! The only bad thing about multiplayer is that you can't have computers to play with you.

4.5 stars. Almost a masterpieceNov 11, 1999
Quake 2 for the N64 largely reflects the average first person-shooter. Some cool enemies and weapons. Nothing generally monumental aside from the detination center and stroggos lab levels, which churn your gut and offer a deep, lost feeling of despair. It had a hint of goldeneye, as well as the original quake control style. I wish that the music and enviorments had a higher creepout factor, as seen and heard in QUAKE 64. Could have used a few more levels. Also, the expansion pak usage for this game is hardly noticible. All in all, it is mpressive as a game, not to much as a sequal though. I don't even think of it as Quake
