Running Doom 3 on a linux box doesn't change the fact that sometimes, the game is just downright scary. Walk into a dark room with flashlight in hand, what's that noise behind you -- two imps blasting fireballs in your general direction. You fumble in darkness switching your flashlight for your assault rifle ... That is a pretty accurate description for how most of the game plays.

Doom 3, for me at least, really lost the feeling of the old school shooters from which it was spawned. Ammo was somewhat scarce, and the game seemed to take on more the horror genre than the action genre which was also somewhat disappointing. Lastly, Doom 3 felt more like a tech demo than a game many spent close to a decade anticipating.
