Scottie-12

Finally after the appalling "I Know what you did Last Summer" franchise, writer Kevin Williamson comes back strong with this enjoyable slice of movie literate, sci-fi black comedy.

Cult director Robert Rodriguez skilfully mixes shocks with laughs in this pseudo-remake of "Body Snatcher" movies. If you are willing to sit back and disconnect your brain for two hours, you could naturally do a lot worse than this.

Recommended! 8/10

First and foremost, this game is utterly awesome. The game as a whole is marvellously constructed and atmospheric, with oodles of scary bits to frighten you senseless. Game design is excellent, as is the level design.

In what Quake truly excells is in its multi-player game. Nothing can match the utter carnage of playing Quake in an office or over the Internet. The sheer excitement of the duel and teamplay is enough to keep you playing for years.

Quake has contually been added to over the past 2 years and the results are splendid, support for 3D cards, Capture the Flag games, new weapons and suchlike are all freely available over the internet or on old magazine cover-discs. This expandability is part of what makes Quake so good.

Remember, if you own a PC or use one at work and don't have Quake, you are missing out on one of the best games ever.
