Tempest 4000 from Jeff Minter and Llamasoft heralds the return of one of Atari’s most beloved shoot-em up titles.
Daily Video Game writes: "Today, Xbox Store has just kicked off three new digital game sales titled Ubisoft Publisher Sale, QuakeCon Sale, and Publisher Spotlight Series Sale that steeply discount on Bethesda, Ubisoft, as well as several good games from other publishers right now!"
People really do owe it to themselves to play the original Quake.
I first played 3, which was all multiplayer focused and I love it to this day.
Played 2, thought the campaign sucked, then never cared to play the original
When the original ended up on Gamepass I just gave it a shot and it's definitely one of the best shooters of the 90s, as far as I'm concerned.
I wonder if they are going to add QUAKE 2 and QUAKE 4 for current gen consoles on Thursday when QUAKECON starts?
I'd hope so.
Like I said, wasn't a fan of Quake 2, but Quake 4 was one of my favorite shooters on 360.
I have it on PC, but it's one of those games you need to jump through hoops to get running properly on modern hardware.
It plays, but all the lighting and shadowing is gone, and the textures are basically nothing.
Tempest 4000 is a blisteringly difficult but highly satisfying sensory extravaganza.
Tempest 4000 comes to the Nintendo Switch after being out on other consoles for four years. The portability, reduced price, and shiny OLED graphics make for an excellent experience, and the best place to enjoy this retro title.
