Okay, I've never really played this game, considering this review was written before it came out, but I can tell you, just by watching 4 minutes of footage from this game, I can say it will out-to EVERY game ever before it. When this is out, buy it. Don't even hesitate.

Will Doom ]|[ have a story? Yep
Will you be shooting scary meanies that jump out of nowhere? Yep
Is it be a rehash of previous Id releases? Slightly different flavor, but yes.
Will the main focus of Doom 3 be to showcase the latest Id Software 3D Graphics engine? Big honkin' Yepper on this one.

If there is one computer game on earth to pre-order, it is Doom III.
Evolutionary graphics, high-poly models, incredible shader effects, realistic game engine and thirlling single player action.
Id Software is number 1 again.

Hmm ok then..

If your new to gaming this will be a great experience..

If you like me and expect a good replay from a game this will be technologically entertaining.. not much else. The real benefit to this game will be as a benchmark so that people can spend 100's of hours optimizing their PC's to get an additional 3 fps out of it.

I'm much more interested to see what real game developers can make out of the engine. ID is an engine house that pretends to make games. If you thought Quake III was a game your mistaken. More like an extended demo.

That being said, people will buy this game because it starts with 'DOOM' and ends in the next # in the sequence.

The Legacy Continues...

Id Software is the godfather of the first-person shooter. Making titles such as Doom, Quake, and Wolfensteine, they have always been the best. Now Id is bringing the most powerful and interactive gaming engine to date to the PC gaming world and it is in the form of Doom III. I'm going to buy it and so should you.

The facts about Doom 3 and what you'll need to run it

There is a lot of false information floating around on the internet about what kind of super computer you'll need to run Doom 3. Here is what we know:

John Carmack, who is programming the graphics of the game, has stated that you'll be able to run Doom 3 with all graphicsdetails at a reasonable framerate (probably around 30 fps) with a Geforce 3. Anything below that (Geforce 2, Radeon DDR) and you will have to turn down a lot of the details to get it to run well.

Doom 3 is designed for a Geforce 1 level class of card, so any DirectX 7 card with hardware T&L will be able to display all the effects.

Doom 3 was shown at Quakecon running on a P4 2.2 GHZ with a Radeon 9700. It has been shown twice on the Radeon 9700, and was shown at a higher resolution and framerate the second time. This means the code is improving, and a Radeon 9700/Geforce 4 card should be able to run the game smoothly with all the details turned up.

If you're wondering if you should upgrade now, you could hold off until early 2003 when newer cards are being released. A Geforce 4 or Radeon 9700 should run the game great, but there will better cards available by the time of release.

Doom3!!! :)

...I just wanted to let you know its a GREAT GAME. The monster detail is amazing so are the texture details....There is one slight problem with the game... Overall this is a great game with fun gameplay. A quote from a friend who played it at my house was "DUDE it must have taken em years to make these sweet graphics.

(((DOOM III ALPHA LEAK)))------>WOW!!!

(...)I was one of the few lucky ones to be able to play Doom III Using the 3 level Demo that E3 released. I must say that the game accomplished what it was intended for, to scare the living daylights out of you. I played the Alpha Leak on a 1.8Ghz 512mb ram with a Geforce 4. It was laggy but I'm sure it will run better once the retail is out. Doom III has the best lighting and shading I've ever seen in a game ever. The game is like walking around in a scary haunted house with a gun. The models for the zombies and monsters are insanely realistic. It's dark, bloody, and scary and I look forward to playing the retail version. One word of advice, if you think the zombie is dead, he is not!

Realistic game, great music, atmosphere, design, almost perfect.
Requires a really modern PC (P4 / AMD XP & GeForce 4).
If you wan't something that will last, than you found it, it's doom serial. Every game has it's fans but Doom is something we all like. just perfect ... ! :)
