Default QUAKE 4 QUESTION

how long does it take on average to complete the game ??

pcs glitchy as fuck lately and last time it crashed lost 4 games

most games half way through "DONT" want to go down that road again but installed quake before with the new sound card and 5.1 head phones its

if its gonna be a 40 hour job rather wait till its 100% the pc

cos formats make me CRY
