Quake 2 is another classic from id software.

While not modded quite as much as it's predecessor or Q3A, it is still a blast to play and the mod's on offer are bundles of fun. Just step into Quake 2 Rocket Arena, armed with the new and almighty rocket and rail gun and you will be gibbing for hours on end.

If you dig fast paced action, then load up the good ole Quake 2, fire up a mod or two and have some fun!

Quake Expo 2008 is on and it's hot this year! Visit us at Qexpo.tastyspleen.net , set up a booth or just look around and have fun!

It's been opened since August 15th. You'll find a long list of booths open and ready to show off what they bring to the Quake community. You'll find projects from Quake 1 to Quake 3 so no matter which Quake you play, get yourself over to Quake Expo for something new! They have events, mods, maps and so much in the works that I'll be updating constantly throughout the event. Don’t miss a minute of all the Quake goodness gang, head to Quake Expo as much as possible, and maybe even hang with the crew behind the chaos in IRC as well so you're not just watching it all happen.

Quake 2 is a classic. The engine was technologically advanced when the game was released. There was also more content in this game than in Quake 1. The game had a proper storyline and missions with objectives. The graphics and sounds were also good. Quake 2 was a good game in the late 1990s.

I always wondered about the relation between Quake and Quake 2. I never understood how Quake 2 could be a Quake sequel. Quake 3: Arena however ties into both. You can play as Ranger or Grunt, and then there is Bitterman. If you look closely at your crashed ship in Quake 2, it bares the name "Bitterman." And of course there is Tank Junior like Tank in Quake 2.

I always thought that Quake was a Doom spinoff. Think about it. The government is doing experiments in inter-dimensional travel and basically open up the gates to hell. Even the helmet worn by the Quake guy resembles the helmet worn by the doom guy, except it has no glass or breathing apparatus. Both Doom and Quake have pentagrams, and other satanic stuff such as the level named "Satan's Dark Delight." Shub-Niggorath, is taken from Lovecraft, obviously, and though I haven't gotten around to reading it, I suppose that the shambler comes from Robert Bloch's Lovecraftian mythos story, "The Shambler From the Stars."
Actually Quake seems to bare a closer resemblance to Doom than to it's sequel.
