==Trivia==
[[Image:QuakeNailgunAmmo.jpg|thumb|right|Nailgun ammo.]]
A particular weapon in game play is the "nailgun" which can be reloaded by collecting ammo boxes decorated with the NIN logo. Also, Reznor was the original choice for sound design on id Software's ''Doom 3'', but circumstances halted his involvement. Former NIN member [[Chris Vrenna]] composed the game's theme song.
