The PC version of NIN was also responsible for the game included 10 audio tracks from 's sound effects. The [[Soundtracks|soundtrack]] was remastered and reissued in 2020 on vinyl and digital. Historically, there was confusion as to whether the game as standard CD-Audio filesmusic was credited to NIN or [[Trent Reznor]] alone, so but this was cleared up by id Software designer American McGee[https://www.quaddicted.com/interviews/americanmcgee] and by the game disc could be played in a CD player 2020 edition. It is notable that this soundtrack contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_music ambient music], which Reznor went on to explore further with the first track reserved for game data (which can not be read by a CD player), ''[[Ghosts]]'' series and 10 additional tracks various scores created with [[Atticus Ross]]. It is also reminiscent of the dark ambient musicof [[Coil]]. ==Track Listing=====Digital===#"[[Quake Theme]]"#"[[Aftermath]]"#"[[The Hall Of Souls]]"#"[[It Is Raped]]"#"[[Parallel Dimensions]]"#"[[Life]]"#"[[Damnation]]"#"[[Focus]]"#"[[Falling (Quake song)|Falling]]"#"[[The Reaction]]" ===12" Vinyl==='''Side A'''#"Quake Theme"#"Aftermath"#"The Hall Of Souls"

There are in fact no official names to these tracks. They are usually referred to either by the level they are initially played to, or by one of two fan created track listings. They can also be referred to by their track number, however, the first audio track being placed on the CD's second track (the first being reserved for the actual game data), this usually leads to confusion.''Side B'''#"It Is Raped"#"Parallel Dimensions"#"Life"

He was a big fan of ''Doom'' and had sent tickets and backstage passes to developers, expressing an interest in working on ''Quake''.[https://books.google.com/books?id=pw0EAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false] [[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 [[Logo History|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. The game's readme mentions something called [[Nothing Interactive]], an entity that has never been referred to on any other NIN or [[Nothing Records]] product.
