I miss the 90's HEAVY METAL vibe to games There was something special about covering everything in skulls, the gothic architecture, screaming horribly as people were blasted into little bits, and that evil satan voice telling you how terribly you were shredding the other team

I was in the Fortress of Doom and stumbled across this music record. I started playing the song. I wasn’t sure if Descent into Cerberon was the name of its album, or if it was the song’s name, so I decided to use the SoundHound app on my phone to find out. However, when I had SoundHound listen to the music, it came up with the song, We Need A Goal by D.I.V. I was confused at first as it was a bad sexual song, but then I came here and then realized that my SoundHound app goofed up, 😂😂😂😂

This is one of the most badass FPS tracks of all times. Thank you for goose bumps. I still owe the original Q2 CD, but hearing it on the Internet is awesome. In 1999, I was one of the best Q2 CTF players in my country; data lines were 56k modems or ISDN, ADSL lines were not yet deployed. Latency ranged from 300 (modem) to 100 (ISDN), and many 200+ ping guys where top notch. We often had fun doing lan parties along with all "enemy" clans - a thing new generations will probably never experience. I used a trackball and not a mouse, and people still wonders about that. Today, I can't play a FPS decently, and my daughter owns me on almost every game. Oh well, I guess this is the natural evolution of games... Q2 is dead, long live Q.

What I like about Quake 2 is that here you play not as an alien pumped with steroids, whom nothing can kill, but as an ordinary marine, an ordinary human, who does not have any superpowers. This creates a special atmosphere. Imagine that you are the only survivor of the entire platoon, sneaking through the dark corridors of the Strogg base. Chaos is going on on the radio, shouts and shooting are heard. And now you stumble upon the torn corpse of your friend, and next to him a hefty cyborg with a machine gun instead of a hand.
