I've heard the same, but Im still somewhat interested. I'm just not expecting anything of Bungie caliber. And dont worry about Halo2 coming out Nov. 9th. Bungie doesnt lie (at least, not about stuff like that)

PS-that is exactly how grotesque is spelled ;)

Um...yea...Doom3 ownd my soul....best singleplayer EVER. And the final cinematics ... all the cinematics rocked. bosses were cool. weapons killd (best if you get a sound package)

the game was pwnage. not a bellow average game. thats an offensive things to say. Just the graphics prove its above average....
get it if you can

Amen to that.Add to that the fact it's so freakin dark,and to see your enemies...you have to use your flashlight...but to use it...you have to put away your gun.So you get the crap beaten outta you.Why can't the guns just have flashlights attached to them! HUH?! THAT IS -blam!-!!!

Yes, that is a major flaw to the game that people didnt take to. So modders came along. Now there're mods that attach the flashlight to the guns. Look for some. It makes the game a LOT better.

I know.But the problem is that you can't make mods for the xbox version...so xbox Doom 3 players will have to play it normally in all it's craptastic non modded glory.

-S

It's a straightforward shooter, don't expect anything too amazing, other than the level design. Personally, the monsters weren't too awe-inspiring. Especially since you don't get to see them most of the time...

Still, it's worth playing when you get the chance.

Some of the best creatures were used far too little. I only fought about a dozen pinkies in the whole game. As previously stated, don't expect a revolution in terms of gameplay. It was always meant to be an homage to the original and at that it suceeds.

With regards to the flashlight situation, I thought it was a good system. Most people complaining I've noticed never realised you could instantly swap it in and out by tapping the f key. It works well and I thought it only added to the intensity. It's not a fault, it's a design choice.
