Yeah, its a bit freaky... especialy on the first level when you go back after everything has been released and you go into the bathroom!! look in the mirror... lol.. jumped back..

They defiantly got the creep factor in good with that game.

i used to play doom2 in the dark late at night and scream like a little girl. im sure d3 would leave a load in my pants.

i had a link to some english guy playing d3 with the lights out littlery loosing it, his friend winds up breaking into the run and the guy nearly passes out. to bad the link is dead because its worth watching.

Yup... got it within weeks of release and I don't think I'm even halfway through... I can only play for an hour or so at a time. Too much stress.

One of the things I hated about the game is that no matter how hard you look there is always 1 or 2 monsters/things attacking you from behind. Poping out of walls,floor or ceiling in every room. It just got to repeditive and I turned it off. Another thing can't they put the flashlight on the gun?

I enjoyed Halflife 2 better even tho the game was shorter in play time the story and the gunplay was great. You also had to think too, I loved all the puzzels they put into the game. I just love sticking guys to the wall with the crossbow and watch them dangle there

Default Doom3

I agree with you, except i finished Doom3 before i got HL2. I enjoyed HL2 way much more, more interaction and puzzle solving, action is just as good. Although it's missing the shock factor where there are monster jump out of no where or from the back constantly.

Overall, i think Doom3 is very similar to previous version other than some improvement on more intense and detail graphics. In my opinion, i feel my money is well spent on HL2 more so than Doom3.

I'm an old duke 3d fan still love the game. Use to play death matches on TEN before they went under. Use to hold my own pretty good.

That might be another reason I don't like Doom 3... it doesn't draw you in on every level. The whole run-around-a-mazelike-map-while-searching-for-a-keycard thing is very 1994.
