Just thought I would ay this about Doom 3. It is a great game. I especially liek the computer screens, the way the images on them are so sharp and are almost all interactive. The whoel game is just a nice looking game with great gameplay. How come other games don't have these little things like good looking computer screens with smooth animations and stuff? I mean, Quake 4 and Prey do but those games aren't as good as Doom. Your thoughts?

Doom 3 was a worthy addition to the Doom family, altough no more monster fests.

Lets hope Doom 4 has Doom 3's creepiness and Old Doom's monster fests.

Doom 3 was boring...after the initial "WoW, looks at those graphics", the gameplay is really repetitive and the monster AI is non-existent. You want to get really scared, try Dead Space

Doom 3 added a new level of immersion to video games: u could play the arcade game in the corner or talk to the people going through the convincing motions of daily life, having conversations, going about their work...and u could pick up and read/listen to all the PDAs. That gave a lot of story to a game so firmly grounded in: See it, Shoot it. And besides, the monster AI doesn't rlly have to exist considering the only place u fight in mostly is cramped corridors, where they just have to know how to move towards u...

I have Dead Space and it isn't that scary. You are one of those gamers who doesn't like playing any game older than a couple of years aren't you? cos you sure sound like it. The Monster AI didn't need to be good since it is mostly set in corridors and it wasn't repetitive, it was a scary game and is a great addition to the Doom family. If anything, dead space copies it.

^ ye dead space was more jumpy than scary but that kind of diminished the further you got in as you began to anticipate when something was going to jump out at you. doom 3 was a great game, over hyped yes, but still very enjoyable and looked great at the time, still does look good.

Doom 3 was pretty okay, but I felt like it dragged on for a bit too long.

Doom 3 was pretty good, and Quake 4 had some good moments, with the excpetion of the last boss and the multiplayer. Prey just didn't excite me at at.

I completely agree. Prey kind of felt liek a sore thumb of a game. It just sort of popped up to jump on the Doom 3 engine band wagon.

I liked D3, especially the expansion. The gameplay was pretty exciting, the graphics combined with the sound made for excellent atmosphere, and I actually enjoyed the darkness. Plus the fact that it was the doom franchise and I was re-visiting all of the old monsters that I've fragged years ago, really put it in my good books. It wasn't as much of a killfest as the original Doom, but still a great game in its own right.

Yea it does. But it doesn't matter. The setting would be too clutered if it had 20 or 30 enemies in each corridor. Its more based on building atmosphere than killing everything.

IMO Quake 4 was superior in (almost) everyway. Game ran better, it had alot more action, much better level design. Raven did with Quake 4 what id should have done with Doom.......made it fun. I'll admit the Doom storyline was a bit better than Quakes tho..but a good story won't save mediocre gameplay.

Has anyone seen my duct tape? I can't see anything........

I thought the computer screens were rather ordinary and totally ruined the experience for me.

Didn't like it. It was definitely crushed by its hype adversary at the time: Half-Life 2. Great looking game for the time though. It's what pushed PC gaming far beyond the Xbox at the time.

Wait, didn't you just describe Dead Space, too? "boring...really repetitive...no AI"

At least Doom 3 felt new and exciting at the time - Dead Space just felt like the large number of horror/shooters that it borrowed ideas from.

Absolutely correct. It was overshadowed rightfully. I wonder what the port was like *shudder*

I thought doom 3 was pretty awfull for a number of reasons.

The interactivity is not all that innovative.. see System Shock 2 for how it's really done. Also, those touches and details never actually matter. Instead of them becoming interactive story telling tools they never amount to more than polish and glitter.

Doom is a the classic FPS / Shooter / Blow monsters to smitthereens. With Doom 3 I guess they decided that survival horror was more fun than shooting monsters.

Overall I was disapointed and coulndt even be bothered to play all the way through.

that is true but compared to the new fps... eg did you find far cry 2 less boring? i like far cry 2 but for different reasons!
