Doom 3 (xbox)

[Verto]

Seeing as how this game just came out for Xbox, I decided I'd give it a try, so I rented it from Blockbuster for 99 cents (using a coupon I had).

I will test it out, although I'm planning to enjoy it more thoroughly when it is sufficiently dark.

This game has some awesome features that should already be mainstream, such as the ability to play coop via Xbox Live; that is, two players playing coop together, but each having an entire screen for himself (Halo 2 should have had this )

Anyone else have this?

I played it on the PC when it first came out. I wasn't impressed at all. I won't play it again.

Splinter Cell is out though I haven't had a chance to play it yet, but I'm planning to on my days off.

Dont worry, its plenty dark.

[Verto]

I meant, until it is dark outside, so I don't have sunlight pouring in.

[Maquiladora]

You bet you were.

Doom 3's method of handling multiplayer via Xbox Live is not as refined as I'd hoped; it took me quite some time to actually get in a game, and when I did I had to "spectate" for 8 minutes, and was never able to join in. I switched to another game, and was able to play for a round until I got stuck in the Scoreboard screen.

Get used to being owned by your torch.

I rented it last night. Can't say I'm impressed so far. Granted, the port is amazing. The graphics are top notch. That said, it doesn't look better overall than Chronicles of Riddick, except the monsters of course. The gameplay is same old same old, been there done that. Halo 2 is a lot more fun. When Doom 3 came out, I was dying to play the game. But now the dust has settled and I don't really care anymore. The power of hype...

[DrSpike]

I agree, it is kind of mediocre.

[Asher]

So was/is HL2.

[DrSpike]

I think HL2 was pretty good, and certainly better than Doom3.

I think Asher is still actually believing that some people took his ridicilous propaganda about HL2 being the worst FPS MP ever seriously without seeing any connection with his praising and hyping of Halo2 at the exactly same time...

Poor Asher, deluding himself.

[Asher]

When did I ever say anything remotely like it was the "worst FPS MP ever"?

The delusion here is apparently not coming from me...
