Doom 3 is a decent game. Here are some positives and negatives. Gameplay- The game plays well on minimum spec machines on low detail, and still looks fabulous. The experience however a little on the scary side, is kind of bland. The levels are all realistic and convincing but a little too monotonous. They should have in my opinion gone with some bright and some dark missions to make the dark areas stand out more and perhaps be a little more scary. Graphics- The graphics are wonderful, perhaps the best I've seen so far out of any game. The realism of not only the modeling and textures but also the animation is great. The creativity involved in making all of the moving and buzzing machinery in the base is top notch as well. HOWEVER, once again it all follows the same theme, it's as though they've done something very well and refuse to budge from it in rendering another environment. What about the brief glimpse of the surface of mars we get early on in the game? More of that would be great. Sound- Sound is fantastic except for the weapons and footsteps. It's as though it was produced by two different teams. The machine gun sounds like a popcorn popper. The chaingun sounds similar and not very powerful at all. The shotgun is decent. The pistol is awful... alot better job could have been done on the sound. Value- Doom 3 is not worth $50 in my opinion. Wait for the bargain bin people or borrow your friends copy. The multiplay is a joke with only 4 people, a few levels, why bother? Reviewers tilt- I give it an 8, cause I loved Doom 1 and 2, and this is a fun game to play through, but not for 50 bucks.

This game is not for the faint of heart, the paranoid or the weak stomached. Playing this game alone in the dark with headphones at full blast is one of the most enjoyable if un-nerving experiances you can have with a ga... Read Full Review
