DOOM III


Recommended Posts

whoa, in the last one the character models look as good as HL2, maybe even better

DIII was always visually superior, from the first screens, i dont get how people started praising HL2 all of the sudden and completely shrug DIII off.. they will both be revolutionary games, i dont see a reason for the constant comparison between the two..

they can't be compared. they are two totally different games. yea sure u walk around and shoot stuff, but anyone that plays the games knows what i mean. DIII is deffinatly better graphics, but as for the engine i think hl2 might have the better one. can't wait for both of em, already got my copy of hl2 when it comes out(thanks ati)

totally what I was thinking. can't compare the games really. doom was always run and gun. mindless. much like serious sam. maybe that'll change for 3? not sure.

:D Long live FPS for PC (or Mac) :D

I really never liked FPS for console, mouse is better than joystick in most cases.

:ninja:

And just for the record, a game can have the best graphics in the world and still suck, with that in mind

Long live HL2 :p mmmm Counter Strike with single player :shifty: :D

B/c graphics don't make a game last...GAMEPLAY and STORY are what makes people remember a game.

Ya but Metroid didn't have multiplayer, if it had that it would have been....

:D :D :D OMG :D :D :D

:ninja: :ninja: :ninja: Sweet :ninja: :ninja: :ninja:

Multiplayer can really make a game 'better' with bragging rights.

how can you not compare them, they are both revolutionary engines, that are going to be used in games to come. Both graphically pleasing. Although, HL2 cheated a little leasing(buying?) the havoc engine.

I also don't know why people forgot about DIII when HL2 was announced, how can u dismiss carmakes ability to create.

Personally I was never really into FPS before Counter Strike.

With a new version comming out after so many years I think it is going to bring back some old memories for lots of people.

It could explain why DIII has lost its hype for so long, that and the fact we really don't know when it is comming out :crazy: .

I was watching the high-res trailer and thought to myself that Doom III sounds a lot like Half-Life, Scientist on a remote/secret base and something goes horrible wrong...

That's been Doom from game 3. Final Doom's thumbnail story line (I think it was Final Doom) was some scientists were working on a seceret experiment that would allow people to close the gates the demons used to appear, something went wrong and the demons come through in droves. Doom had that story before Half-Life was even a concept, and somebody has the story WAY before Final Doom used it.

Both Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 will be great games, each one is an FPS, but they are each going about being an FPS in their own way.

Half-Life 2 will revolve around a fairly intricate story line and focus heavily on that, Doom 3 will probably do what Doom has always done, fast paced action. I know I'll definatly be getting both of these games.

:ninja: This is exactly why I think HL2 will be a better game overal.

Story line is one of the most importent game elements.

Blizzard messed up Warcraft 3 FT with their horible story line and that may actually kill the company.

Of cource I am a RPG fan and a RPG with a bad story line is one of those games you just never speak of again lol :cool: .

The only other things that really matter are...

1) Do the graphics match (if u have cell shading with realistic models it just looks weird and distracts the player).

2) Are the controls good (having to press ctrl alt del to mov forward usually ends the game for you right there. lol :p ).

3) Is the music working with the mood of the plot (There is nothing worse than panic music playing during the point where the hero get the girl :ninja: )

4) Length of game. (If its over in 10 minutes no one will want to play it again unless it is the best thing ever :shifty: )

HOWEVER,

if you just want to shoot some people without thinking DIII would be better then most ploted games.

I am not trying to knock Action based FPS's but you know what I am saying, if u have the time get the plot.

Blizzard doesn't have any other games for PC in the works.

And they lost their 4 best programmers.

There is a good chance that they are going to mess up Starcraft 2 cause they left it out so long. After 10 years its about time to actually make a brand new game. :ninja:

Don't get my wrong, I love Blizzard and hope they make it, but things are staked against them.

World of Warcraft will be a flop with the release of FF XI and the ever looming Everquest. World of Warcraft is just not as good as those other two games.

Doom 3 looks :woot: I believe I'll be playing BOTH games since they are indeed totally different in terms of gameplay.

Just a random question. Will Half Life 2 come with mods like Team Fortress 2 or a new Counter-Strike using the new graphics engine? That would be sweet! :yes:
