3 words...Holy freakin crap! :shock:

The graphics are simply stunning...no two ways about it. It's not quite the same effect as when you first walked out of that tunnel in Far Cry to the lush tropical landscape, but when you see it, you'll understand. To sum it up...John Carmack has done it again.

Atmosphere is everything! Everywhere is so dark and the lights are flickering and sometimes they flat out go out for a lil bit...and it's not like the flashlight can light up the whole place...which, while realistic...makes for a VERY creepy setting. Hell, I had to stop and breathe for a bit a few times well and I hadn't even squeezed off a round for the game yet.

Finally met my first couple zombies and I didn't want to move another inch from where I was after I took them down. The intermitent radio chatter of marines screaming didn't help much either...word of advice for the faint of heart (myself included!), do yourself a favour and have someone sit down next to you to hold your hand and wipe your forehead...turn on all the lights and say some prayers before you get going...don't say I didn't warn ya!

A must play for any FPS fans.

Forgot to mention the in-game settings that I play with on my rig...

Resolution: 1152x864
Video Quality: Medium Quality
Antialiasing: Off
Vertical Sync: No
All other Advanced Options: Yes

I tried bumping up the Video Quality to High but the game became unstable when it went into the movie sequences...

Awesome lookign game. I am looking foward to playing it.

But Half Life 2 ownz all bases.

Hitman_Jim · « **Reply #13 on:** August 02, 2004, 09:25:10 PM »

i think Half-life 2 will own Doom 3. That doesn't mean Doom 3 isn't a great game, and it is. Show these devs that you care about quality releases: Buy them both, starting with Doom 3.
