About 10 hours ago, I was planning to buy the Xbox360, and PS3, and then maybe the Wii if I had any money left. I was to watch the new conferences and think that the other consoles were going to suck and that Sony's was probably the best. But I was soon proved to be wrong.

I thought Sony's conference was pretty good, but today I tuned into the Microsoft's and Nintendos.. I was utterly amazed. Even though Microsoft wasn't unveiling a console they had big secrets, they bought in very new footages and proved that the Xbox360 can look as good as the PS3. As the finally they even showed the highly anticipated game of all.. Halo 3.

And then Nintendo showed the Wii. This blew away my past oppinions. I really thought that the Wii was just some stupid gimmick that Nintendo just wanted to bring out, just to make a profit. But I was wrong, this may be actually my first purchase of the newer generation consoles.

After seeing how cheap the Wii and Xbox360 is, I then compared it to the PS3. I then found out that the PS3 was actually 600 dollars not 500. The 500 dollar version was a very bad rip off.

I will be getting the Wii, then Xbox360, then after many pricedrops, then I might consider getting a PS3. But that depends on how well MGS4 scores and how many of my friends have it.

But I want to hear your oppinions. E3 is not over yet, and I still have a lot of time to change my mind before the newer consoles actually come out.

Doom is an inspiring game for all developers. Although it is not the first First person shooter game, it is the game that gave birth to FPS genre. Doom is the rolemodel for all FPS games.

You start out in hell-on-Earth situation, you meet grizzling monsters and soldiers that just look at zombies all bloody and such. The graphics are great, and this is one of the few games that were in 3D at the time it came out. You could see the minor details on each enemy unit, right of the start you know that this game would become great. The walls were very detailed at that time and there were plenty of mazes and puzzles on the walls. If you found the hidden puzzles in the game you would be awarded with items and health packs, and rarely new weapons. This game can be played at a face pace or a slow pace (much people preferred slow pace back then). You could run through the whole level, kill the monsters, get the keys, and not do a single puzzle. Or you can take your time and get puzzle bonuses.

Eventually you will encounter heinous enemies that throw red fireballs at you. You will be forced to dodge and return fire. This game uses the 3d aspect extremely well. 3d was uncommon back then, and for this game to use such aspect was mind blowing. FPS Games such Wolfenstein required you just to stand still and shoot, kill, move again, shoot and kill. There was no really movement while firing since you can't dodge bullets. But this game required you to use your dodging skills as well.

As you progress through the game and get more weapons, encounter new enemies, get new level music you will notice that the sound is terrific. All the weapons had different sounds, and all of them are unique. Whenever you heard a monster in some dark corner you would immediately know what type of monster it was and what weapon you needed to kill it. This may sound like not much of a "good" thing, but doom has so many of these moments you actually depend on the sound to help  you at times.

The beginning levels are pretty easy and as you go through they get much harder. It comes from 5 minutes per level to up to 30 minutes per level. And if you get stuck at times it even becomes even one hour. This game will last you quite a while to finish, and after you do I gurantee you that you will want to play again. There is so much replay value due to the secrets. This game actually tells you how much secrets that you discovered whenever you get done with a level, and the fact that sometimes you can get the good weapons early in secret rooms makes it a lot more fun. Why wouldn't you like to kill the weak guys with the most powerful weapons?

Overall this game is a chivalrous adventure that brings you into a new genre. The genre of FPS. And also since the year is 2006, you can have the new Doom games that have already come out. This includes Doom 2, Doom 3, Doom 3 Expansion pack etc. All of which are great
