From the creators of the DOOM series comes the next series of first person shooting games, Quake.
In Quake, the player now has the capability of looking in every direction imaginable, a new assortment of weapons, new levels and even more intense multiplayer with easier capability of playing against friends and other competitors across the Internet. With Quake you can also create maps, skins, and other aliments.
System Requirements: Microsoft Windows - Apple - Linux
Getting NightmareYou may or may have not noticed that there is no option to play Quake in Nightmare mode.
To get into Nightmare:
Start in Normal skill mode.
Go into the 4th episode, but don't get into the time portal.
When you fall out of the water, go to the console and type in Fly.
Go up, turn left, and enter the doorway, or step into the water, but don't fall through.
Swim all the way against the wall on the same side you enter the water (where the shield is in deathmatch).
Now fall through and you will land on the rafter.
Walk on the rafter right into the Nightmare entrance.
