Consumer reviews for the Nintendo 64 version.
Games Domain
Reviewed by Brett Todd. "If you never bothered to see what the fuss was all about before, Quake II: Quad Damage is a must-buy." Also includes screenshots.
GameSpot
[9/10] Reviewed by Vince Broady. "Whatever else may be said about Quake II, one thing is certain: It is the only first-person shooter to render the original Quake entirely obsolete."
GameSpot
[7.7/10] Reviewed by Tim Soete. "This pack is worth buying for players looking to further their Quake experience. But with its labyrinthine levels and some frivolous additions, Dissolution of Eternity lacks the same inventive quality that made Armagon a seamless continuation of Quake."
GameSpot
[8.6/10] Reviewed by Tim Soete. "This add-on comes highly recommended for anyone who just can't get enough of the original. With a cool new soundtrack and challenging levels, Scourge of Armagon is more of the same good thing."
GameSpot
[7.9/10] Reviewed by Elliott Chin. "While Ground Zero doesn't promise anything drastically new, as expansion packs go, it's pretty good."
GameSpot
[7.4/10] Reviewed by Greg Kasavin. "Those who found the original to be either entirely or gradually disappointing will want to pass on The Reckoning for the same reasons."
GameSpot
[7.4/10] Reviewed by Jeff Gerstmann. "When all is said and done, Quake II on the N64 is a good conversion of the PC game, and the multiplayer stands up to games like GoldenEye and Turok 2 quite nicely."
GameSpot
[7.6/10] Reviewed by Jeff Gerstmann. "In the end, the PlayStation version of Quake II falls under the same disclaimers as most other PC-to-console first-person shooters - if you own the PC version, don't waste your time."
The Adrenaline Vault
[5/5] Review by Brian Clair. "If you thought Quake II was going to be a pale shadow of the original based on the public test demo, think again."
The Adrenaline Vault
[3/5] Reviewed by David Laprad. "There were no surprises, and too much 'been there, done that.' Although the talent of Rogue is in the game, the heart and soul are not."
The Adrenaline Vault
[2.5/5] Reviewed by David Laprad. "While it does offer a fix for those who cannot get enough, there is nothing unique and entertaining that differentiates the add-on from the original game."
