Quick quake

Like with most team shooters of the 2000s, I can't say much about Enemy Territory: Quake Wars due to the lack of internet access at the time. As a spin-off of the venerable Quake-series, developer Splash Damage ventured into the realms of Battlefield and the like, offering both ground and air vehicles for the 32-player matches. A novelty for the series and its spiritual predecessor, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, which (surprisingly) was anchored in the Wolfenstein-series. Who would have thought? Anyway, enough internet research gathered – let's move on to the music review.

The score

Die wird kurz ausfallen, da es sich nicht nur um einen Gamerip handelt, sondern auch noch einen sehr kurzen. Gerade einmal sechs Tracks bietet uns Komponist Bill Brown an, bestehend aus dem Hauptmenü, zwei 40-sekündigen Fraktionssongs (GDFBill Brown3 and StroggBill Brown3) sowie drei Ladezeitüberbrückern. Topscorer wird in meiner Wertung Main MenuBill Brown4, das mit seinen langezogenen Tönen, E-Gitarren und Percussions zumindest etwas Sci-Fi-Spannung Marke Crysis 2 , for example.

Overall, there's not much to criticize – simply because there isn't much there. The music serves its purpose and, at least for me, arouses a desire for more and even a bit of interest in the game itself ... and because it's a gamerip, I can't really complain. Instead, I see the album as a little sneak peek into Brown's work, who has also contributed to Quake II, Command & Conquer: Generals and The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth among others. Especially the quality of the latter is known to me, and I've also mentioned before in my review of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six , I would like to hear more from this talented man. Well, maybe next time!
