10 Video Games You Didn't Realise Are Over 20 Years Old
10. Quake
Online first person shooters are immensely popular. It may be a commentary on man's competitive nature and our desire to release our inherent aggressive tendencies in a way that will not cause harm to our fellow man. Or it may be because FPS are just fun, we'll go with that, it sounds less crazy. But if you like a shooter because it's fun or because it fulfils your base desires Quake can be traced as the first big online shooter.
Quake's slick hyperactive moment and gameplay are a blast to play, the visuals and settings are something of a better looking DOOM but Quake's greatest contribution to video games would be its popularisation of the online death-match, a common feature found in FPS to this day.
For extra feeling old points, the original Quake features a soundtrack made by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails fame. That should give you a good idea of the time period this game was made in.
