Im just wondering, I think its an ok game and a lil overated, its not
that scary at all. The graphics are good but I think HL2 imho will be
better. I average around 14 fps when fighting monsters and zombies to 50 fps at idle. -------------

| I get a steady 60fps on high settings, 1024x768, no AA. I love the game. It does what it Doom was made to do. It's a fairly scary game. I'll admit that there were quite a few time's where I jumped out of my skin. I'm still in the Delta Labs so I'm not in Hell yet. I hear Hell is hell. |

I've always thought the whole "Doom" series was a big joke -------------

Like I've said in all the OTHER doom posts.... Ugh. I finished Doom 3 and aside from being easy on the eyes, it's no more than a tribute game to all the other doom games and a way to show off the engine. After the first few hours, it's just the same drawn out formula of going from room to room, doing stupid missions, only to find your way blocked and magically have an alternate route to take. Rinse and repeat for 20 hours. I read a good review of doom the other day: "No problems runnin on my PC, but the gameplay is so boring, with little interaction, repetitive plots, and unrewarding progression. It's almost easier when you're drunk, because you don't over-analyze your objectives, where to go, or what to kill." For me... Doom 3 is kind of like a super-model, sure it looks good, but once you get her home and starting playing with her for more than a few hours, you end up wanting to un-install her, put her cd's back in the box she came, and fire up Alpha Centuari. -------------

I liked Doom 2 more than 3 and the first one. The first one was too short and scary ( I was only 5 or 6 when I played it religiously). Doom 3 feels a lot like a game based around a graphics engine. Kinda like the plot and gameplay was an afterthought. Quite creepy in places. I actually got the game last week, and have since gone back to Red Alert 2. |

Doom 3 is pretty much the only I one I remember playing, and I liked it so far. I played multi player (which was lacking) and a bit of one player. Mainly, I like the fact you can kill scientists, and your team, and nothing happens

It was all hype, the only thing I was impressed with was the graphics
(even they weren't that impressive), I'm just glad I didn't pay money
for it.

The main reason everyone wants it is because it's a game made by ID, and every game made by them is usually one of the best games to ever come out. Also that seems to be the same for Valve (I.E Half Life 2) And there are always the Counter-Strike fan boys... ------------- [IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/1538fbc.jpg"> Squeeze Box ☣ |
