Off the bat, Quake II is already a huge improvement over the already great first game to me. It's crazy just how much they were able to improve on the first one in just a year.

Add to it that this remastering job by Nightdive Studios is one of the greatest remasters I've ever seen. The full base game (with fantastic visual updates) PLUS all the expansions PLUS all of Quake II's Nintendo 64 version PLUS an entirely NEW expansion...for only $10? Or you can get it through Xbox Game Pass? OR you can upgrade to it for free if you already own the original game on Steam?

Meanwhile, Rockstar's trying to charge $50 for a lazy port of Red Dead Redemption...yeah, save your money and give it to a developer that actually puts love and care into their re-releases.
