Quake 4

Overview

Story

The story of Quake 4 starts off at the exact point of where Quake II left off.  It starts out with you, Matthew Kane. and your fellow Marines, the Rhino Squad, heading towards Stroggos while in a squadship.  However, partway through the flight, your ship is shot down by an anti-air gun.  This shot sends you hurtling towards Stroggos, to crash moments later.  You awaken to find that you have crashed in the middle of a battle between the Strogg, the alien race that inhabits Stroggos, and seperate Marine Squads.  You find that your squad is missing, so you venture to the nearest help and find that they are up ahead.  After a you help a smaller squad, you reunite with your team and continue your mission, to take advantage of the dead Makron and take the capital of Stroggos. 
Featuring the trademark corridor-crawling action made famous in previous iterations of the series, Quake 4 boasts a variety of weaponry and set pieces that move the story forward, with one big twist smake in the middle.
