In some sort of odd hipster nostalgia mixup you will soon be able to order the QUAKE soundstrack on vinyl (LP-record) direct from Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails (NIN). Price unknown (I just assume it's not the $0 that it is currently listed as).

While I still own quite a few LP-records and a player I don't think I enjoyed the Quake soundtrack enough to buy one of these records. I could probably think of a few other games I would rather have the soundtrack on LP-record for, mostly various C64 games.

    One of the few games I still enjoy playing. I love the atmosphere and even the sound effects. Then Quake 2 came out with its shitty sounds and zero atmosphere, what a letdown.

    Starting Score:    1  point
    Karma-Bonus Modifier   +1  
    Total Score:   2

    IKR! "Let's do it in space. Because, stuff."

    Oh yeah.

    QI had ambience and great design. QII was an evolutionary step but one among many FPSers. QIII they did OK with IMO - they really distilled twitch fps.

    And QII didn't have TF. Q's team fortress was amazing; people still play it. Just incredible.

      Because the "cheap knockoff Hell, with some sci-fi bits glued on because reasons" setting of Q1 was so much better?

    .. you just made me remember the year I finished Quake using just the axe. I had done it with just the axe+single barrel, without savescumming much (maybe before one of those 1 in 10 interactions - a crazy timed jump sequence or boss fight). The shotty allowed a lot of geometry/ai exploits. With the axe, I probably savescummed every single fight. It still took me a stupid, ridiculous amount of time. The lightning ice giants ... I don't know how I did those, I must have found some geometry/ai bug with them because they were essentially unbeatable up close.

    Good times! Thanks for the reminder!
