The landsacape is stunning, the storyline thrilling, but the monsters destroy the whole game. Sad... Sad

I picked up Doom 3 for Xbox yesterday, haven't had a chance to check it out yet, hopefully it will be as good as the PC version.

I could have got the limited edition version which features the complete original Doom and Doom II, but I really didn't think it would be as enjoyable as it was way back when, especially on the Xbox, as a matter of fact I believe I may still have the original PC versions of Doom or Doom II somewhere in my stash of ancient PC games.

Could have been the DOS version, I can't say for sure, I do still have a PC that has DOS and Windows 95, just in case I ever want to play any of those old games, one of my all time favorites is the original X-COM.

I've been playing Doom 3 on the Xbox for a little while today and I have to say the graphics are some of the most impressive I have seen on any console, it is safe to say they look nearly as good as PC graphics, if only I had a HDTV!

Nay,not at all. Just an enhancement.

I wanna fight bad guys in Far Cry, but only if they're the same race as me! Stupid genetics-doctor. Couldn't he just have been a James-Bond-like nuke-abducting megalomaniac?? Roll Eyes

I was at the game store today and couldn't help looking in the Doom 3 guide just to see how far I was along into the game, there have been a couple of times I have thought I was almost at the end but then I keep going, so after a look in the book it appears I am just over halfway through the game, which is good news because I am enjoying this game so much I was hoping it wasn't going to end so soon.

Same here, I usually prefer a third person view, but I am 100% addicted to this game, my friends are all crying because they thought God of War was going to be the greatest game of the year, then they all beat it in 9 hours, boo hoo, I told them Doom 3 kicks ass, but then they all decided the new Splinter Cell was "the" game to be playing, and now they are all crying because they beat that one in 9 hours, boo hoo again, I tell them again to start playing Doom 3 but so far I am the only one that I know who is playing Doom 3 and I have plenty more than 9 hours into it, I'm the only one of my little group of gamer friends who is happy right now, I keep telling them to play Doom, but no one is listening so screw 'em.
