on an extremely superficial level, yeah the games are similar. But in that case you could say Half-Life was the same as doom1&2 as well... and yet that game got critical acclaim and praise from everybody. Actuallly, about 9/10 reviews were extremely positive, and the few that "bashed" it gave something like 80-85% "You will never experience a dull moment',or even a less than mesmerizing one. Doom 3 is a masterpiece of the art form" -PC gamer Review ^^^dont believe the hype

If you like modern SP games (i.e. half-life and later) you almost cetainly will like doom3, if you loved the originals, youll probaly be dissapointed a lot. Doom3 would have made a good survival horror game, but as it stands its only a decent FPS. It has many of the flaws of the survival horror genre (scripted sequnces, linear puzzles levels and gameplay) without a lot of its positive aspects (plot splits and twists)* all in a first-person view package. Its absolutley nothing like the original doom games in terms of gameplay, which isnt *entirely* bad, but isnt good either. *(it does have good voice acting though)

1. Early in the game, while the guard was talking to me i accidentally hit him with the flashlight and he gibbed as if his entire skin had been ripped off, it was so unexpected 2. After hell breaks loose when you go back to the super turbo turkey puncher and its broken... just listen to the sound it makes 3. That multiplayer level where theres this laundy chute type thing that you can send grenades down ... good times

has anyone gotten Notarget to work yet? I rmemeebr it didnt work in the illegal demonstration thingy either, but i thought it was a bug too bad, beacuse i wante dto do some realy cool monster infighting

I saw the haunting scene, that was really good, i wish ther had been more hallucinations

you made it? actually, really the complaint isnt about realism as atmosphere and mood - i think it would of bben better if id had made acontrast between teh humanity of a reaserch base and then it become stanic by a demon invasion

I had been waiting for the chance to save him, but you cant whihc is kinda cool and incredibly stupid at the same time

What i want to know is, wheres birdman? or that skeleton thingy whos jaw falls open

Me on Marine Dissapointed for the most part, kinda liked the ending, definitely was dissapointed with the boss fights what he said im working on some maps rigth now, its a little difficult

I definitely agree with EsH about the design of the base, its kind of ridiculous the problem is also that id didnt think f any CONTRAST. What i mean is the game shoudl have started out *happy* and *bright*, whihc would have made the scary parts much more dark by comparison.also, you dont ge the "ruined base" feel because theres no *good* clean base to compare it too when i first walked in and you see the caution markers and broken lights i almost thought that the invasion had started already bottom line there really wasnt much of a transition, because the mars base wasnt *human* to begin with

The lights out level in mutiplayer is hilarious and that other one where peopel wait 20 seconds for the megasphere and then somebody else takes it, LOL

*waits for doomedout to make some ocmment about how peopel should be show more "coutesy" and "understanding of the other side", forgetting that his rules only apply to people he disagrees with

Doom 3 is supposed to be an fps... most of us are fps fans and not used to interactive movies Basically i didnt find the game to be that fun, i only felt like i was playing for "duty," or waiting of some cool effect... it didnt draw me back the way games like Heretic or Doom or even Quake 3 did

Wow, i didnt see that *once again reloads*

True, but no reviewer has the guts to poitn out doom3s flaws, thats what im saying who has the balls to review doom3 honsetly?

how do you get the texture window?

oh sh*t. *drools at possibilities* k, i have to start mapping now! EDIT: Dumb question, anybody know how to rbing back the target box after you close it? I accidentally Alt-F4ed it thinking it would close the editor

I have a 9800 pro, no problem, but mines not overclocked.. and i havent updated my drivers at all...

Wait, if you dont have surround sound make sure the game doenst think you do

My favorite boss is the Vore like thing My favorite creature is the cherub

LOL!

I think it was just the fact that Unreal did mroe things than quake 2, not that id did anything wrong Sometimes you see monsters fight each other and its extremeley cool, but most of the time its impossible, the monsters are almost all triggered, so they dont chase you. and most of the environments are too cramped for the manuvering you could do in other games

^^^Basically excactly how i feel, esp the part about monster behaivor
