I used to play LAN Quake at Uni before 3D graphics accelerating boards (and before that things like Pacman and Manic Miner on a ZX Spectrum and before that arcade games) and I ain't a boomer.
Boomer games are more like this
Zoomers genuinely think everyone more than two years older than them are boomers. Same as how actual boomers thought everyone more than two years younger then them were millenials.
But WW2 was in the 40s.
same. i'll never forget the sound of that grenade launcher... foomp tink tink tink BOOM
So weighty.
Actually, I played a pirated version of Q1 back in the day so it wasn't until later that I got the full audio experience of (playing with the CD in the rom drive, which was required to listen to listen to) the music, and man that game is A LOT CREEPIER with all that ambient wailing and moaning and like, gnashing of babies, that the full, sculptural soundtrack provides.
The soundtrack for Quake was by Nine Inch Nails too. Probably one of the best game soundtracks still I would say.
Forgot about that~ I remember looking around and trying to find a copy of the soundtrack. Good times, thanks for the reminder
You're probably already aware, but if you like the Quake soundtrack, you're also likely to enjoy Ghosts
