Downloading now.
Also, here's a shocker: They just put the source for the remaster and the reverse-engineered port of the N64 version on Github. Holy SHIT. This is more than what I had hoped for. I was afraid since Bethesda bought Id that source releases might be a thing of the past, but this is beautiful. Modders can still mod. |

It's a shame that fewer "the console port is similar, but very much its own thing" examples existed. Most, potentially all, of the one before the PS2/Dreamcast era of systems would have benefited from not being attempts to directly shove the PC games onto much, much less capable hardware.

It's pretty cool the included the N64 levels. Those slipped through the cracks for most quakers but from what i understand they were actually pretty decent. It was a good idea to do their own thing around the abilities of the platform rather than try to make a gimped port of the PC version.

Coming out of nowhere, the madlads at Nightdive Studios have released a remastered version of Quake 2, available on all current consoles and PC (via Steam and Xbox Gamepass). Steam users who already own Quake 2 get the remaster as a free update.
This release includes: -The Reckoning -Ground Zero -Call of the Machine, a new 28-map expansion by Machine Games -The Nintendo 64 version of Quake II, a 19-map unique-ish campaign on PC for the first time -Local and online multiplayer, including co-op, with crossplay -Various modern enhancements, as you'd expect Release trailer here. Price is US$9.99 on all platforms. Update: Limited Run Games will be doing a physical release of all versions (store page here). Prices start at US$34.99 and rise depending on how much Stuff you want in addition to the game. Their PC release has no base version and contains a Steam code instead of a disc, which is disappointing but expected at this point. Update 2: They've made the source for the remaster and the reverse-engineered code for the N64 port available on Github (here). |

I saw the announcement over on Twitter. Impressive, I think we all figured this was much further out than this.
 And it turns out they're also working on Voxel Duke 3D... |

Where do Arch-viles hide when the Doomguy shows up?
What do you call a stroggified cow? How do you weigh a Slipgate marine? Did you hear about the backpack that kept attacking people? Why did they put the chaingunner on a diet? |

I remember, way back, at least one person asked me why I didn't use fog of death instead of lava.. to sort of 'update' the map a bit more to a Q3 aesthetic or whatever. My reasoning was that, as rare as it is to likely happen, the lava IS escapable at times. Whereas the fog is not.
This is the second time I've heard of it.. but even just one makes me glad I didn't use the FoD.  |
