I am 24 and I like Doom3

Okay folks,
I promised you an update regarding Doom3 and here it is....

Doom3 is great!


What....?

You weren't expecting a long discussion on the finer points such as the lighting effects, level design and atmosphere where you?

You got your update, what more could you possibly want from me??? BLOOD?!?!?!?


Fair enough....

Doom 3 - The grudge update.

The visuals : Superb. Everything is here from mood lighting to no lighting. Swinging lights wreck your head as you try and figure out if the shadow you've been staring at for 5 minutes has just moved.

The Sound : Super-smashing-namtastic. Everything from the rasping sound of zombie breathing to the pleasant tinkle noise of breaking glass. The sounds tie in brilliantly with the overall design of the game.

The feel : While I'd prefer to be legging it around huge levels with a rocket launcher, there is still a lot to be said about sneaking up to a corner and peeking around to see if there are any monsters waiting to attack you.

The Atmosphere : Brilliant. This will scare the holiest, and the unholiest, of sh!t out of you. Everything about this game is designed with this thought in mind. Do not play this game if you are the type of person who thinks that because you shot the baddies to bits, that they are not going to get back up and come after you.

The Baddies : Everything from the simple-minded Zombies up to the Beholders floating around is done perfectly... You'll spend a lot of the game looking at dark corners to see if theres a baddie hidden in it.
Overall rating : 9/10. (I deducted 1 point because its not an AvP game)

Final thought on this game : This game is a GOD among mortals.
