yea i got scared (flashlight,pitch dark, no weapon, and scary music)

but after awhile it just got too repetitive, and the levels all looked alike.

T-Dogg:
I'm just breezing through it in God mode for the fuck of it. To see what kinds of scene's they've managed to come up with and shit. It got really boring really fast. Just the same shit over and over. Not even the chainsaw brought any new fun into it. And it's really gay how the dude can't hold the flashlight AND his weapon up at the same time. It really sucks that for the whole game you're surrounded by darkness. Granted, the occasional scary moments wouldn't work if the place was properly lit, but the darkness gets just annoying as you go along. And GOD some of the enemy designs are stupid... Upside down heads with spider legs? Skeletons with rocket launchers on their shoulders? Bitch pleeze. (The basic zombies look good though. It's cool how some are in flames and some got weapons like wrenches and chainsaws...)

But I gotta say, ID once again did a heck of a job with the engine. The level architechture doesn't bring anything new, but the character detail and the dynamic lighting (and especially how SMOOTHLY the lighting works) are off the hook. Having full motion video in the levels is cool too (like on the TV's and shit). Also it's pretty cool that when you shoot a bullet at somebody (or something) it leaves a hole in the body.

Somebody like Raven Software is bound to came along and make a wicked game with the engine that's a lot more fun.

Or not. We'll see how the Source engine Half-Life 2 runs on turns out in the end. That one shouldn't be such a resource whore though as the Doom 3 engine is.
