Love me some Doom.

Never beat Doom 64 tho. That last boss was a whore.

Bought Doom 3 but havn't played it yet.

Picked up Doom 3 and RoE for the Xbox like a month ago. Will hopefully get around to playing them sometime in the future.

doom 3 is pretty awesome.

some people didnt like it because the environment was really dark and you had to use a flashlight and it wasn't attached to a weapon but i think it made the game better because you either had to choose between going into a room with a light and no fire power right away or go in with guns drawn and you cant see.

I liked how they hid the imps in the game real well because there are times there is nothing you could do to not get hit by them.

and all the new and old monsters were real well done and the hell levels were amazing

I am currently having a love/hate relationship with Doom 3. Loved everything about it up until now but this last boss fight is just ridiculously hard.

Also I hated that when I started Hell they pretty much took all my weapons away.

the cyberdemon or sarge? The cyberdemon is easy, you just need to stay away and use the soul cube

wow i didn't even get that far. i think i got to a room or with red fiery bricks or something and couldn't figure out where to go so i stopped. might have been the very beginning of the transition to hell.

Yeah. First two were good. Second two were comically awful.
