        I prefer Doom 1. Being confined to claustrophoic hallways sucks.

            I like claustrophoic hallways, but Doom 3 doesn't use it to scare but to brag about the amazing lights
            This space is empty... or is it?

              You know what the sad part is?
              The first screen is much better looking than the second one. Honestly now. I know that the first is in sprites and the second is in polygons, but still...

                You can see more of the first screen because it isn't so dark.

                  Compare both to the graphics of their time. Doom 1 was AMAZING way back then.

                    Doesn't use it to scare? They have such advanced technology but you can't mount your torch so that you can shine it and shoot at the same time!

                      Which is why I posted an image of Wolfenstein previously - that was the graphics standard when Doom was originally released.

                        Just because it's dark doesn't mean it's scary. After a few minutes of play you quickly learn when to expect an enemy so if a creature jumps out of the dark it's not suprising

                          You miss the point. Doom3 isn't supposed to be scary beause of enemies jumping out at you, but because of other things. Jumping enemies are a nice surprise now and then, when you don't expect it, but the game overall is scary. The first thing on computer and TV to scare me - that is, I've never been scared by a horror movie or a game to this point.

                          Doom and Doom3 are also revolutionary in tech for their time. No, there are other great looking games now. HL2 also looks great, and often more beautiful than Doom3. Doom3, though, is the only game that looks real.

                            Other things? I can't think of anything else about Doom3 that could be scary
