The graphics are much smoother, there's much more animation, the weapons are models instead of sprites, instead of ambient music it's hard rock music by Sonic Mayhem. Instead of stand alone levels, the levels are connected through a hub system, effectively making the game longer and more involved. There's more enemies, and they actually have the final boss, the Makron.
So, basically, the N64 version is a butchered port with colored lighting and new levels.
The PSX version is about half the size of the PC game (so, half the hubs), with the same amount of levels as the N64. But the PSX version runs MUCH smoother, and plays much better. The N64 version runs slower, is choppier, and is reduced to a basic level set. Like I said, it has less types of enemies, and no final boss.
The N64 version is good as a collector's item, but it's worse in just about every way. The PSX even has smoother 4-player splitscreen.
@elbryan42 Yep. The only reason to get the N64 version is for collector purposes, or out of curiosity. I got it out of curiosity. Much prefer my PC and PS1 versions. Again, I'm an N64 fanboy as well, and it pains me to say this.
unfortunately this game looked and played like shit
shoddy graphics, terrible framerate and boring simple levels
i think it suffered because the cartridge was only 16 MB or something for this one. So it was much shorter, had fewer textures and less frames of animation
I think there's 4 or 5 levels missing, and some level architecture. And it's missing the Spawn enemy. Overall, it plays very well and is a pretty good port.
I mostly played the pc version, but this version was cool. I wish they had used music for the n64 version like the one for the pc. The music was sooo kick ass.
I love how all of you say how this version was so much more better. Well then, why was half of the levels missing, why dont we have that heavy metal to listen to, why does nintendo always have to have that backwards ass controls, and why does the N64 last boss suck balls? Oh, and the graphics on this game was inferior to the PSXs, so yeah. If anyone can think of anyhting that the N64 did better, then tell me.
@MegaJRockster It's great because rather than trying to be an exact port of the pc version and failing at it like Quake 64, it took it's own identity and made n64 exclusive levels which imo was a good choice.
the sensitivity on my emulator version is out of wack..its rly hard to aim and it sucks cause i fucking love this game and its not the same playing it on easy as it is on hard..but as of now..no possible way for me to do hard
fuck i was 6 years old playing this shit because my dad thought rated m stood for rated "mat" which is my name. I got so fucking far in this shit when i wasthat young rofl
the ambient music of quake 2 was indeed somthing of a marvel, i wish newer games would take heed of its effects and use it to make improvments rather than splashing cash at artists to outdo eachother.
@Moisemo25 i happen to enjoy the nintendo 64 version with toned down texture clarity, framerate and sound quality. i find the gameplay for quake 2 64 quite fun and also considering that nintendo 64 had faster load time, a more clever switch between levels, and more original content. how about next time you go out and just say "mines better then yours", have some reasons ready. GO NINTENDO!
The PSX version IS better. The animation is better, there's a ton of rockin' music. It runs smoother. The hubbed levels are intact (making the levels more diverse, not just going to the end of the level). The PSX has more enemies, the real final boss, and makes few sacrifices besides super sensitive controls and half the levels of the PC (the same amount of levels as the PC, but with the re-visiting levels it's longer). Even multiplayer is more fun and smoother.
@elbryan42 Srsly, Quake II (PSX, XBOX 360, PC) has on of the best (if not the best) soundtracks that i've ever seen. And of course, psx graphics and gameplay are better then n64 version,
I 100% agree with you. The PSX version out performs the N64 version with the 4 meg expansion. So 2 megs vs 8 megs. Yeah, it was a lousy port that should've been done better.
Of course, this was very common in the N64 days. It seemed like developers saw cartridge only and decided to not even try, even though it sure was possible to have a huge game with tons of stuff. Look at Conker, Zelda, Resident Evil 2, and more. The N64 could handle it, most developers couldn't.
@elbryan42 At least, it has Doom 64 (which is awesome) and Quake 64. One thing that pisses me off is that PSX do not have a Quake 1 port and Doom on the PSX is kinda lame...
I miss this game so much. I used t rent it... I tried to emulate it recently and it didn't seem to work. Anyone can help? I tried the PSX and the PC versions but it's not the same :(
I used to always make the enemies fight each other, I'd try to lead one to shoot another, and then they go at it like two chumps while I'm right up front watching them.
oh man I remeber playing this when I was little, this scared the living hell out of me. especially the robot that still shot at you when you were dead. (what was it's name?)
I remember this game as a kid (5, 6 maybe) and beating it on medium, then working on the hard difficulty. I reached the part after the planet full of mutents than I lost my game. Thanks for posting this video. I really liked this game as a kid. Also...You beat the bonus level? Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that the one with the two hyper gliders and the two tanks? What do you do on that level? I remember playing it, but that 1 or 2 minute time limit was too little. Anyway, thanks for posting!
I remember this game. It was a good version, with new levels that weren't on the pc. Has anyone ever beaten the bonus level "Twists"? If so, is there a vid of it on the tube? I never made it before the time ran out...
Do you need an expansion pack for this? also, my n64 was used that I got at a retro game store where I live and in the slot thing up front had a sticker that said "Do not remove the jumper pack" or whatever? is that something that came with newer 64's so I wouldn't need an expansion pack if I need an expansion pack for this game if it needs one?
Please answer so I can get this game and not be disappointed about not having an expansion pack when I actually needed one...
Nope, the expansion pack isn't required.. The expansion pack makes the graphics sharper though.
That sticker came with new N64's ever since they were first released. The jumper pack is a placeholder only. No N64's that I know of comes with the expansion.
if you have an xbox, just buy quake 4, it comes with a port of the pc version on the bonus disc, way better framerate and graphics than the 64 version.
I've only played bits and pieces of the "real" Quake 2, but after beating the N64 version it was evident to me that it was a castrated version of the original. No ducking, no hubs, no cutscenes, no ability to carry and use items later, none of the original music, and completely different level design. It was fun, sure, but it wasn't anything like the PC version.
I had this game on N64 a few years back. It sucked. The PC version looks 100x better. I also had Quake and the PC version slaps the hell out of the inferior N64 version. Also the PC versions of both are superior to the console verions, yes that goes for the ps1 as well.
Troubling to see the level design has been butchered. The areas are far too cramped and claustrophobic in contrast to the PC's open world, expansive architecture. If this was necessary to compensate for the N64's hardware, that's one hell of a limitation. No metal soundtrack? Disappointing, I wonder why they tore out the inventory system. Nevertheless it will be interesting to see how the game looks later on.
I don't know why they did that either. Maybe they were trying to make it more scary. IDK go play it on PC and Playstation, because they screwed this one up.
This is my favourite multiplayer game on any console at any time. It is even more enjoyable than Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. The comedy factor in this is simply brilliant!!!!
You know what Quake II for N64 really is? It is as if you printed a gun model onto a sticker, and stuck that sticker onto the TV. It is that bad. The scenery and your gun model does not really meld well together.
I didn't mind this port at all. It was a good distraction while I played it (recently), but overall, other than a good 4-player gaming session, it's pretty average.
this version is more of a mission pack then a actual game, but its good though. but i just noticed somthing weird, when i had this none of the goodies glowed and everything looked alot crisper.
What do you mean? You can swim in the PSX version. It has dual analog too. It also has hubs instead of standalone levels, more music, more graphical effects, more enemies, and runs smoother. The only drawback is the loading hallways, but they only load for about two seconds.
Yeah, I know, I blundered. I didn't play very far into the PSX version and didn't ever see a waterlogged area where it should have been (particulary in the sewer in level 3 where you swim to find that secret area).
i have always wondered why they used sprites for the weapons and why the enemies had less frames and death animations. also disappearing bodies is wierd on this port.
many long nights playing 4 player deathmatch with this game. i miss those days.

You know what Quake II for N64 really is? It is as if you printed a gun model onto a sticker, and stuck that sticker onto the TV. It is that bad. The scenery and your gun model does not really meld well together.

Quake 2 N64's gun models where more true to the PC version. As well as the enemy models.
The sound and such as well were all from the PC version.
I have the PSX,N64 and PC version.
As far as weapons and such go for me, the N64 version looks and feels more true to the PC.
The PSX version's weapon models got a rehaul, and the textures look kinda grainy IMO.
The models on it are not the same as the pc as they are in the N64.

yeah theres only slowdown at every fucking close up shot
bobbyhill19899 3 years ago
I didn't mind this port at all. It was a good distraction while I played it (recently), but overall, other than a good 4-player gaming session, it's pretty average.
So... fun, but average.

i like this game. . .it's still a good port. it has good control, but it does have some slowdown to it. however, it's still fun to play.

yo why is it that when my friend gave me this game on computer, i played it and the levels are different compared to nintendo 64 version.
sebastian824 3 years ago
Because, besides a level or two, the N64 version has completely new levels.
elbryan42 3 years ago
Someone needs to port these levels. I'd like to play them, seeing as Q2 is the only quake I beat until about 4 months ago.

oh and the animations where not all choppy.

this version is more of a mission pack then a actual game, but its good though. but i just noticed somthing weird, when i had this none of the goodies glowed and everything looked alot crisper.
zenophas 3 years ago
For someone who seems to love quake, your command over the character's aim and movement sure is weak.

Xtreme2252 3 years ago
Ay, I thought Quake II 64 was nice. Better than the mess of a port for the PSX. You can't even swim in that port!
Quake 4 was pretty cool, by the way.
BlooditeDrakan 3 years ago
What do you mean? You can swim in the PSX version. It has dual analog too. It also has hubs instead of standalone levels, more music, more graphical effects, more enemies, and runs smoother. The only drawback is the loading hallways, but they only load for about two seconds.
elbryan42 3 years ago
Yeah, I know, I blundered. I didn't play very far into the PSX version and didn't ever see a waterlogged area where it should have been (particulary in the sewer in level 3 where you swim to find that secret area).
My bad. :D

No problem. You should check out my Quake II PSX vids to see more of the game. ;)

whats the better quake saturn quake 64 quake 2for n64 or quake 2 for psone
freddy444100 3 years ago
i mean whats the best port of quake 1 and whats the best port of quake 2
freddy444100 3 years ago
Quake for the N64 is the best console port of Quake 1.
Quake II's best ports are either PSX or XBox360.
elbryan42 3 years ago
then i guess ile get quake 64 ans quake 2 for psone because i dont have quake 4 i like the classics
freddy444100 3 years ago
Buying Quake 4 for the XBox360 is worth it for Quake 2 alone.
I've played through Quake 2 multiple times, still have yet to play through Quake 4, and it's still well worth the money.
elbryan42 3 years ago
or get the pc special edition since it includes quake 2 and its 2 expension

the texures for 64 are higher res the pc is pixelated
fear25x 3 years ago
Not if you run the PC in OpenGL mode which is through your video card. That gets rid of the pixels and smooths and clears every texture up.

i have always wondered why they used sprites for the weapons and why the enemies had less frames and death animations. also disappearing bodies is wierd on this port.
jovviz 3 years ago
I might buy this game in the near future, it looks very cool and it's different from the PC and PSX version.
I know this game supports the 4MB expansion pack. Does that help the choppy firing animations?
PedTeixeira 3 years ago
Nope, it just makes the game slightly sharper. In this video I'm using the 4MB expansion. Kinda sad, huh?
elbryan42 3 years ago
PC version is better

The weirdest part about the N64 version of Quake 2 (and the original quake on the N64 as well) was that it had loading. I'm not quite sure why.
