do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Overall, fun and it has a ton of atmosphere. "Horror" wise it's pretty gimmicky house-of-horror style fear, just like the original Doom games. However, there's a few moments where Shock style creepy things are done.

The graphics are a little less flashy than UT2K4 or FarCry. However, there's a higher attention to detail. Things such as different glass distortions, the Flash animation based things on the computer monitors, etc. Character animations are also much better and the AI isn't quite as dumb as I was expecting it to be. (some of the monsters do use cover and coordinate attacks)


the cyberdemon was a ***** to take down, though.:nod:

Fear, I am not sure where you are stuck. I just completed level 4 of Alpha labs and didn't see any turning bridges. There was just one normal bridge which extended after pressing "Extend bridge" button on nearby terminal. :)

This is a WARNING!

Appearantly people downloaded the co-op mod for doom3.
they found out every time the guest try to jion the game crashs. after a while they found out thier cd-key is beeing used.

The currenct version of Co-op mod is a cd-key stealer. do not download until the new version of it arrive.
the guy that installed that cd-key stealer is a smart guy because he knows every1 wants to play co-op

it's not massive lag, but there's an obvious decrease in framerate for a second at certain "graphically intense" areas of the game.


He designs for nvidia and yet uses an ATI. That's faith. Most probably suffering that lag due to ATI's poor OpenGL implementation, still can't say I've noticed it myself however.

yeah i thought that was ironic too.  *shrugs* maybe it is something to do with his card, or maybe he just has everything set too high.  but there are definately parts where it slows down on his machine

The guy is a bastard for doing it but I've got to admit that that's a pretty clever trojan delivery method. I guess it's a good thing that stealing passwords is ALL this thing did. :D

It's nothing new - several BF1942 mods were released that stole CD keys from people. I doubt even BF1942 was the first game to have it happen.

In some ways I had more trouble with the guardian in hell. (the whole gimmicky boss monster routine)

The cyberdemon was a bit more straight forward, especially since all of those little critters nearby were wonderful soul food... heh heh heh...

i think u should buy doom3, i personally love it and if i had to review it i would give it 9.5/10, im my scale farcry got 9/10.
plus i dont think doom3 is scarier than AVP2 for example but way more intense..... with the spooky sounds and the dynamic lighting, heck sometimes im afriad from my own shadow. its awesome... and chainsaw is freaking cool.
