PC gamer review of Doom III
Thief 3 runs a lot better than DX2.

Anyway, last night I checked a few stores. None of them would have it in until Wednesday for regular sale, since I refuse to pre-order.

System Shock 1 had those elements as well. Since the big difference between 1 and 2 was that 2 was a full-fledged RPG, it would probably be more accurate to say that Doom 3 borrows from SS1 (which is ironic since SS1 came out barely a year after the original Doom).

Doom3 is the scariest game I've ever played. ****ing hell.

Every 5 feet a monster comes out of the wall/ceiling/air duct and starts slashing you. :shaking:

Ok, I just played it and I stand by my previous assesment of the game. Besides some rather nice scare tactics the game isn't really that special and certainly not interesting enough for me to keep playing. Played it for 2 hours straight but really got tired of it. Too monotone for me (as I expected it to be).

Although I must admit it's better then what I had expected. Especially the beginning. But after that it dumbs down IMO. :)

okay, got my hands on doom 3, and i like, gotta be a tad careful with the ammo conservation... oh and... enemies in your face = bad.

what really surprised me, is the fact that it runs better on my system than far-cry.. and still looks pretty good.
very surprising for this system
