Yes please!!! Idk if this was a branch off. But I want Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict again super badly. I loved that game back on Xbox original.
Epic doesn't even have the old Unreal games on its store yet but they have been on Steam for years. They don't seem to think they will make money and the last version of Unreal Tournament is there for free but not sure how popular that is compared to modern games.
I kinda dislike aged 3D Graphics. 2D Stuff mostly looks great, but 3D not so much. I actually like Dooms look quite a bit more. Of course, it was much more primitive, but the 2D sprites as Enemies and terrain look better to me, then Quakes 3D Models. That being said: It's fucking Quake. Wether you like the Graphics or not, you'll have a fantastic time playing it, and the look actually complements the game quite nicely. I certainly wouldn't want Quake to be remade in a newer Engine.
I really enjoy that there’s a bunch of features to make it look like the original version of the game like the low resolution filter More old game rereleases should do that
I remember buying a pc with an upgrade of voodoo card day one and paying £600 and playing this first day of launch for £30 and now we are playing it on the toilet 🤣🤣🤣
Remember playing the shareware version on our 486 DX2-50 as a young teen - it was a literal slideshow and yet IIRC I played through the shareware episode despite that.
Haven't been trough that stuff. But as a Child, I had a N64 (still have it. Not giving this bad boy away anytime). Maybe around 2005 or 2006 I discovered Emulators. It was MINDBLOWING to be able to Play that N64 on my freaking PC! Imagine how I stared, when I booted up OOT on my Computer for the first time at age 11 or 12. Nowadays, allmost all N64 Games run on any fucking Toaster. I've seen people Emulating it on a Smartwatch, and I played trough it on GPD XD+ Android Console with HD Textures.
quake's multiplayer is what a true arena FPS should be. no "heroes", no exclusive skills and weapons, no perks, no ultimates, only pure. unadultered. SKILL. welcome to the old school, have a rocket launcher, and have fun.
Also I hope an enhanced version of Quake 2 would fix the polygon wobbling in that game. The player models and weapon models in Quake 2 engine games wobbles similar to polygon based graphics in 3D PS1 games.
That already happened, kinda. There's an RTX version of Quake 2 you can get, providing you own an RTX20** or RTX30** which is hard to get with so many miners buying them all up!
My quess is that we will get multiplatform releases of all numbered Quake games (Quake 2, 3 & 4), maybe they could even for the first time ever add an official campaign in Quake 3 that can be played in co-op somehow, if that happens?
@@GAG091186 Quake 4 desperately needs an enhanced edition. There are so many fixes, tweaks and re-texturing that needs to happen. If they release it for the Switch, it might give it a new start.
@@minjod I disagree. I absolutely love Quake 2 and Q3 is my favourite game of all time. Just that Doom is much bigger of a brand than Quake and frankly Q1 by far has had the most influence on the gaming industry. Not only do I disagree with your assumption but I genuinely think that we won't see Q2 or Q3 get re-releaseed... Tragically.

I got it on the Switch about a week ago on sale. While I'm not the best at FPShooters, it was incredibly accessible with easy difficulty and the game is just nice to play. The shooting is satisfying, the movement even more. Even on easy difficulty there's some challenge. I'll wait some time (and a sale) to play the 2nd one. Go play it.
I bought this as soon as it hit the eShop, and was very happy with all the love and content this updated port of Quake received. I was thrilled to see they even included Quake 64. Crossplay & gyro controls are just icing on the cake.
One of my newer favorite games. Absolutely deserve the score and the multiplayer is awesome. Even on switch it has keyboard and mouse support, voice chat, and private lobbies. For $10 it's one of the fullest packages on switch.
You picked it up, played it for a short while and after maybe a few weeks from now you won't play it again. You'll keep it installed for a few months, though
I can't believe this is a thing! I've been wanting a port of Quake for years now, and then bam! Here it is. Couldn't be happier with the love and care they put into this. 10/10. Also the soundtrack from Megadeth's Cryptic Writings album pairs fantastically with the original campaign. Cheers!
Quake was more expansive and engaging than doom, played both back when and preferred quake than and still do now.... Ps knowing its 25yrs old makes me feel Jurassic it's 3 whole years older than my nephew lmao
God the Nintendo switch has had me hot....I really like how it is sort of a mix between a semi current stuff/old nostalgic stuff and almost like lower tier PC stuff. with out modding it HAS to be the best handheld system playing stuff from Duke 3d to Jedi outcast while just chilling out is truly undeniable...

The Switch version has a severe audio delay of arround half a second, I've never seen it this bad in any other game before. Hope they patch it soon. Also, let us switch to the N64 music.

I've heard nothing but praise for this game on Switch in every review. However, I've seen numerous posts on various platforms about the original music soundtrack not working on Switch ... but it's never mentioned in the reviews. Is this a real problem with the game or only effecting a few people for some reason ?
Always wanted this on handheld after buying on N64 years ago, still own it along with the SEGA SATURN & Quake, this plays beautifully on Switch im very impressed, £3.19 Absolute steal
I’m trying very hard to enjoy my experience with Quake on the Switch. It’s just doesn’t play as smooth like Doom 1, 2, and 64. I love the way it looks and stuff, but it just jitters, lags, and controls are awkwardly chunky and weird. I can’t get used to it. Don’t get me wrong, I love it, but I’m having too much trouble playing it.
I have been thoroughly enjoying it as well. I also mirror your opinion on a gyro controls being awesome in this game. Originally playing it with keyboard and mouse on the PC I figured I'd have a hard time playing it with a controller. But it turns out that I'm blasting them no problem.! :-)
Just a note. There are some weird issues at some area where you will bounce around about, without holding the analog stick. Not joycon drift. It happens at some areas eg. The last dragon boss.
Boy, you weren't kidding, this is fantastic. I have it on my onexplayer too but the Switches gyro makes this version the better version. Played it for hours today. One of the new levels (factory in lava) might be my favorite Quake level of all time
For ten dollars? Yeah it’s worth it, there are still a few bugs when playing over the internet that have yet to be addressed but it’s still very fun :)
It can drop frames pretty heavily, think it may be leaky/inefficient memory wise - it's particularly pronounced in the expansion episodes with more ambitious maps and more enemies onscreen. I had initially thought it was due to the Ambient Occlusion as disabling this setting seemed to improve things greatly, but even with that setting disable, it can regularly get pretty choppy.
Playing this on PC and Switch. Switch version suffers from audio delay, bad analog control and frame skips. I'm a bit dissapointed as I expected it to be on par with the pc as it's such a old game. Doom also suffered from similar problems on release but they did fix it.
@@joaoaraujo9629 I'm not asking you to believe me, I'm just expressing my own opinion. Play the game for yourself and see how it feels. I'm sure it will be patched just like Doom.
@@joaoaraujo9629 lol I hope you buy it and experience these issues for yourself. I have the Xbox version and whilst the audio is fine the thumbsticks feel dreadful, like a console shooter from 2005 lmao
I remember playing Quake to death when it came out and then when Quake 2 come out my friends and I would play multiplayer in the IT room at school at lunch time. We had such a wonderful time one of our teachers would join in every now and then too. This was all when video games and esp PC gaming really wasn't mainstream so we used to get so much shit from the 'sporty' kids who were playing football in their 'Kickers' and listening to dance music wishing they were in Ibiza....ahem... Anyway.... I bought Quake for Switch straight away and it really is a game that will never not be fun for me. I was always a Quake Fanboy and this is just joyous! Plus I miss being a teenager in the 90's...
The gyro aim is really really good, but I feel bad for Xbox players and people who don't like gyro because the analog aim is AWFUL. Like, original release of Uncharted 3 bad. It's almost digital, it feels like you just have another D-pad there. Massive deadzone, then just SNAPS into one speed in one of the four cardinal directions no matter what you do. Inputting diagonals is technically possible, but it's a TINY area of the analog stick so you have to be super precise to hit it. On top of that there's a HEAVY amount aim acceleration that can't be turned off to make it extra inconsistent. Thank god gyro aim is there, but sometimes you have to use the analog stick too, you know? Using it for just big turns is okay I guess but it feels bad, man.
Man it's really grim lol I'm not playing it until it gets patched. The recent DOOM and DOOM 2 releases had awful input lag, too. Eventually got patched though (though not the Switch versions), so I'm hopeful.
I don't have the Steamdeck yet and I loved the idea of pocket Quake so I got the it on Switch Lite thing fits in my pocket. Also it has tilt control on Switch and if you adjust the control setting right and use the controls stick then use to the tilt to make small adjustments it makes not have mouse and keyboard not as bad
Picked this up on switch since it's on sale, not the best with a gamepad but still surreal to play on the go. There was a great homebrew on the wii called wiiquake or something, but it had amazing motion controls similar to the cod series on wii. Would be cool to see them bring motion controls in an update that would set this apart from the other releases
I have already played hours of it, and you get better as the PC players are ruthless and excellent players, and it is a great process, quite enjoyable, and you can turn on your microphone, it improved the nintendo switch online service faster than nintendo did.
Im probably the only person who wants it, but I really wish Wolfenstein 3D would be ported to Switch in a similar manner. Quake III would be awesome too
like literally this was the easiest $10 i ever threw at them for my switch. Far far value for the money skew. 4 player coop split screen and dm, coop even xpacs, bots yeah i mean not even a thought of i already played it before etc, lots of fun for money
though I have them on Xbox One ( though Quake was merely downloaded via Gamepass ), I still need to get Doom, Doom II, Doom 64, Turok, Turok 2, Duke Nukem 3D and Quake for Switch just so I can have them all portable ( also Ion Fury, which nails that retro feel...wish it and Quake had cheats on console though, just to have more fun. ). Such amazing classic FPS games. Hopefully Turok 3 and Quake II will get the remaster treatment eventually as well...
It really seems like this is an offer to get people to sign up for a Bethesda account. That said, I cannot deny the refreshing nature of these recent FPS games. It’s so easy to jump in and out of these games! It’s a small but major point. I’m loving DOOM 64 AT THE SAME TIME!
At ten dollars the amount of content and care put into this port is absolutely worth it
@Cheeks Flexington gyro controls dude. Problem solved .
@Cheeks Flexington well play it on pc then
@Cheeks Flexington I prefer gyro. You have more precise aim than standard analog sticks.
@Cheeks Flexington rookie
@CheesinIndianThe options have settings to fix that
Would love if they (any studio) remake Unreal tournament. Another great arena shooter.

I've heard nothing but praise for this game on Switch in every review. However, I've seen numerous posts on various platforms about the original music soundtrack not working on Switch ... but it's never mentioned in the reviews. Is this a real problem with the game or only effecting a few people for some reason ?
It works but it's ridiculously quiet, there supposed to be patch on the way to fix the problem.
Always wanted this on handheld after buying on N64 years ago, still own it along with the SEGA SATURN & Quake, this plays beautifully on Switch im very impressed, £3.19 Absolute steal
I’m trying very hard to enjoy my experience with Quake on the Switch. It’s just doesn’t play as smooth like Doom 1, 2, and 64. I love the way it looks and stuff, but it just jitters, lags, and controls are awkwardly chunky and weird. I can’t get used to it. Don’t get me wrong, I love it, but I’m having too much trouble playing it.
I have been thoroughly enjoying it as well. I also mirror your opinion on a gyro controls being awesome in this game. Originally playing it with keyboard and mouse on the PC I figured I'd have a hard time playing it with a controller. But it turns out that I'm blasting them no problem.! :-)
And big thanks to Modern vintage gamer who was on the team.
I played it 20+ years ago with a keyboard on a pentium 2 white pc alongside age of empires, tomb raiders lol
Just a note. There are some weird issues at some area where you will bounce around about, without holding the analog stick. Not joycon drift. It happens at some areas eg. The last dragon boss.
Just remembered Trent Reznor did the soundtrack
The combination of puzzles and combat still holds very fun game
You found a secret area.
Definitely picking this up.
You still haven't got it yet
Just picked it up for $3.75 on switch store. Came here to see if it was a good buy and was really suprised.
Boy, you weren't kidding, this is fantastic. I have it on my onexplayer too but the Switches gyro makes this version the better version. Played it for hours today.
One of the new levels (factory in lava) might be my favorite Quake level of all time
Factory in lava (a new level) is a level in Quake
@@purebaldness couldn't remember the name, I think it's called dying embers, or something similar
@@kevinbuchanan67 factory in lava
@@purebaldness sure
@@kevinbuchanan67 dude alright buddy no need to get snarky pal damn fella ok there bro
For ten dollars? Yeah it’s worth it, there are still a few bugs when playing over the internet that have yet to be addressed but it’s still very fun :)
Yes it's definitely worth it it runs so smooth it's so damn badazz
Absolutely beautiful on Switch runs so smoothly - loads of fun!
It can drop frames pretty heavily, think it may be leaky/inefficient memory wise - it's particularly pronounced in the expansion episodes with more ambitious maps and more enemies onscreen. I had initially thought it was due to the Ambient Occlusion as disabling this setting seemed to improve things greatly, but even with that setting disable, it can regularly get pretty choppy.
Like would it hurt to Fix the brightness? ... Would it f#$%'n hurt!?
I agree with everything they said in the video. and all of it for just 10 bucks... crazy what you get for that price
A remaster so good I’ve bought it twice. Dusk as well, the switch is a little gem for these shooters.
Playing this on PC and Switch. Switch version suffers from audio delay, bad analog control and frame skips. I'm a bit dissapointed as I expected it to be on par with the pc as it's such a old game. Doom also suffered from similar problems on release but they did fix it.
He didn't mention anything about this... So I don't believe you
@@joaoaraujo9629 I'm not asking you to believe me, I'm just expressing my own opinion. Play the game for yourself and see how it feels. I'm sure it will be patched just like Doom.
@@joaoaraujo9629 lol I hope you buy it and experience these issues for yourself.
I have the Xbox version and whilst the audio is fine the thumbsticks feel dreadful, like a console shooter from 2005 lmao
Good that some people can acknowledge important issues like this.
@@purebaldness I'm sure Digital Foundry will expose the truth.....
This remaster was a serious chef kiss moment.
Shame the thumbsticks feel like a janky 2005 game with aim acceleration lol
@@purebaldness Lol if you say so
@@SomeOrangeCat well the game uses aim acceleration instead of direct player input, so yeah.
Gotta love out of date aiming techniques! 10/10
I remember playing Quake to death when it came out and then when Quake 2 come out my friends and I would play multiplayer in the IT room at school at lunch time. We had such a wonderful time one of our teachers would join in every now and then too. This was all when video games and esp PC gaming really wasn't mainstream so we used to get so much shit from the 'sporty' kids who were playing football in their 'Kickers' and listening to dance music wishing they were in Ibiza....ahem...
Anyway.... I bought Quake for Switch straight away and it really is a game that will never not be fun for me. I was always a Quake Fanboy and this is just joyous! Plus I miss being a teenager in the 90's...
Joyous.
The gyro aim is really really good, but I feel bad for Xbox players and people who don't like gyro because the analog aim is AWFUL. Like, original release of Uncharted 3 bad. It's almost digital, it feels like you just have another D-pad there. Massive deadzone, then just SNAPS into one speed in one of the four cardinal directions no matter what you do. Inputting diagonals is technically possible, but it's a TINY area of the analog stick so you have to be super precise to hit it. On top of that there's a HEAVY amount aim acceleration that can't be turned off to make it extra inconsistent. Thank god gyro aim is there, but sometimes you have to use the analog stick too, you know? Using it for just big turns is okay I guess but it feels bad, man.
Man it's really grim lol
I'm not playing it until it gets patched.
The recent DOOM and DOOM 2 releases had awful input lag, too. Eventually got patched though (though not the Switch versions), so I'm hopeful.
This is the first time 10/10 review I’ve seen on this channel since I stumbled across is a few months ago. I guess I’m making space for Quake.
I don't have the Steamdeck yet and I loved the idea of pocket Quake so I got the it on Switch Lite thing fits in my pocket. Also it has tilt control on Switch and if you adjust the control setting right and use the controls stick then use to the tilt to make small adjustments it makes not have mouse and keyboard not as bad
cant stop the Jon playing Quake
Are we forgetting the genius behind the music! TRENT REZNOR!!
Wanted to play his my whole life, finally have the chance
Picked this up on switch since it's on sale, not the best with a gamepad but still surreal to play on the go. There was a great homebrew on the wii called wiiquake or something, but it had amazing motion controls similar to the cod series on wii. Would be cool to see them bring motion controls in an update that would set this apart from the other releases
I have already played hours of it, and you get better as the PC players are ruthless and excellent players, and it is a great process, quite enjoyable, and you can turn on your microphone, it improved the nintendo switch online service faster than nintendo did.
This game is one of my favorite retro shooters. The Doom collection and Duke Nukem aren’t bad choices at all. But he frame rate is so awesome on here.
Absolutely killed it. Just played every level, every episode and beat the game. Reminds me of when i was a kid!
Im probably the only person who wants it, but I really wish Wolfenstein 3D would be ported to Switch in a similar manner. Quake III would be awesome too
Best 10 bucks i spent in awhile
So definitely get this on switch? It’s $4 right now on sale on the eshop
like literally this was the easiest $10 i ever threw at them for my switch. Far far value for the money skew. 4 player coop split screen and dm, coop even xpacs, bots yeah i mean not even a thought of i already played it before etc, lots of fun for money
though I have them on Xbox One ( though Quake was merely downloaded via Gamepass ), I still need to get Doom, Doom II, Doom 64, Turok, Turok 2, Duke Nukem 3D and Quake for Switch just so I can have them all portable ( also Ion Fury, which nails that retro feel...wish it and Quake had cheats on console though, just to have more fun. ). Such amazing classic FPS games. Hopefully Turok 3 and Quake II will get the remaster treatment eventually as well...
It really seems like this is an offer to get people to sign up for a Bethesda account. That said, I cannot deny the refreshing nature of these recent FPS games. It’s so easy to jump in and out of these games! It’s a small but major point. I’m loving DOOM 64 AT THE SAME TIME!
Damn, I never really got into quake as a kid but I definitely played a bit of it. This will be a great excuse to sit down and play through it.
Sega Saturn version is the absolute best. And this one on the switch is awesome too. Can’t beat being portable.
switch version supports mouse and keyboard . thats just the best
looks great ... but I'll wait a month or two when its 50% off
Welfare?
@@gingataisen lmfao
nah its worth all the money and more
