Hi Dark, Honestly I am not surprised you feel the way you do about Audio Quake. While a nice idea in concept when I tested it a few years back the only portion of the game the developers had made accessible were the deathmatch arenas which aren't really my thing either. When I played the original Quake back in 96, when I still had some vision, the single player mode was much more interesting and its a shame that has never been made fully accessible.
For those who don't know Quake I is basically about this person named Ranger who travels to alternate realms via slipgate. The various realms or levels differ from gothic temples, to lava filled caves, to medieval looking mazes. Along the way you must collect runes and fight various monsters. It was a pretty cool game for the time, and as stated above Audio Quake seems to have missed all the really cool stuff in favor of the deathmatch and online player verses player arenas. To be honest what I'd personally be interested in is a modern remake of Quake based on the single player mode using the original maps, sounds, and music. The deathmatch mode is cool, but not my thing.
