Very well developed and intelligent storyline!! Worth $50 [Posted on 2007-11-06]
This game is an excellent opportunity for those who thought Battlefield, and Medal of Honor series are great. Don't forget, it was Soldier of Fortune that gave us excessive GORE! Not to mention its NOT FUN to play a game where you shoot an enemy and he simply lays on the ground smiling, with no wounds at all!! I'm pointing this out since this in the only game so far developed by RAVEN Soft. The same geniuses that created SOF. Only play this game and you will find out that out of all the FPS games out there, this is one of 2 games that still retains the compatible amount of gore. Its well made with few bugs (i don't know the online version) and is still intense. SOLDIER of FORTUNE was the game that got me into FPS. However I'm still debating whether to purchase other FPS titles, for they are becoming more story driven than anything else. IN my OPINION IF YOU WANT A GOOD STORY, GO SEE A DAMN MOVIE. AND REMEMBER, GAMING WAS MADE FOR ACTION NOT THE WIMPY STORY LINES. Don't blame me, I love a storyline but am not obsessed with it. I really miss the classic SOF games with their brutality and violence. Those Days Will NEVER BE THE SAME!! (for all you people that can't take it as SCI-FI fantasy, and cause high school shootouts).

Will keep you busy, but could be better. [Posted on 2008-03-14]
Nice single player mode to keep you busy, but not as good as others. If you compare this game to Fear, Fear wins in a number of ways. Fear has sharper and more realistic graphics. Fear's storyline is better scripted, and can keep you on the edge of your seat at times. Quake is just a shoot 'em up game, that you keep playing because you just want to finish it. No replay value whatsoever. At lease the single mode is long enough to keep you playing for a while.

A Great Shooter [Posted on 2008-04-07]
The game looks very modern and the colors are very vibrant. I would suggest it to any person who likes shooter games. Usually I like games that give you the option to play with cheats so for me it makes it more entertaining.

Won't even install [Posted on 2008-04-21]
I have a Dell Inspiron with lots of resources, using Windows XP SP2. I have NEVER had an application fail to complete installation before. But Quake 4 did. In the middle of the fourth (!) disk, it just went to sleep. I just went to Activision's support web site, which is kind of a joke. Forget this buggy piece of junk.

wouldn't install [Posted on 2008-04-24]
I bought this game back in 05 and it wouldn't install. During disk 2 it could never access a file called something like pak003.pk4, and there was no way around it. Internet searches turned up plenty of people with the same problem, but no solution.

I'm reminded because I just found the game on my shelf and tried to install it again. Total waste of money.
