Doom 3 - My review
I downloaded this game a couple days ago, great game, and I am for sure going to buy it. Very well game, hit all the key points of graphics, game play, game control, live orchestra music, interactive objects and people, and very well made voice over character speaches. I have a decent computer and I get a little choppiness occasionally when incounter bad guys.
Here are some of my Screen shots of it:
I will post more later, but if you have some cash around or a fast connection try it out or buy it, you wont reget it. 9/10 is my rating.

Yeah I agree with you, it is a really good game. I've played the full version of this game before and it is amazing, the only thing I don't like about the game is that it's really dark and I always had a hard time spotting the enmy in the dark. But overall it is a very good game.

I like the darkness. Not being able to see is a big part of the game, not just a side effect of the rendering engine.

The game is great, but I don't like it that much because it scares the shit outta me. When I first installed it, it was around 11pm so its dark and quite. Started playing and nothing eventful happens in the begining until those damn heads start flying around. Everytime I turn a corner those damn zombies make a freaky sound and it doesn't help that I turn the volume up aswell. The first time that happened I almost pissed in my pants.

Lol I didn't even want to go past 1024x768. I'm afraid it'll get too choppy and it'll hurt my eyes.
I went to the gamefaq forums to get some help, and I run into a topic where people with gf fx 5200s say that they could run doom 3 at max settings. I just found it hilarious when they say its a good card and it can run at max settings and resolution.

Thamar, Crazie Dude - I so dont care about this game that if that doesnt run at 1280x1024 Ill just uninstall it and keep it for collections sake
Ill give it another go though. It was very slow 1280x1024....and if things started to expload it would be BAD!
Ill give it another go later on maybe. Do a few tweaks here and there.......

Everybody knew this game was hard on pc's and that even the fastest setup right now isn't able to play the game on 1600*1200 with all the fancy graphical features like AA & AF on.

Shit. I would say thats preaty pathetic job from the Developers. You know that if they wanted to make the game run fast they could. Looks like they just dont give a fuck, knowing that the name alone will sell them millions of copies.
