you can still see them teleport in with the light on or off. remember the orangish/red swirly effect? stop defending it.

i enjoyed the game otherwise

If you couldn't get into that game the first time out, I don't know what to tell you.

it was a by the number fps. not much to "get into". it didn't do anything wrong....it just didn't do anything OMG right/NEW!. keep in mind i have played probably 90% of PC fps.

Atmosphere-wise, it's in the top % as far as I'm concerned.

It was doing a lot more "new" in that area than most games that weren't Half-Life 2 (which still plays like Half-Life 1, unfortunately --but I digress).

I liked the survival horror aspect of it, and the loneliness, much like Alien.

See... now D4 should be like Aliens with massive action and colossal hordes descending upon the clusterfuck of Earth.

Ran like shit on my Imac G5. It was tolerable on xbox tho.

That's becuase you got the Islam port.

and doom 3 plays just like doom 1 and 2. what's your point? i don't see what D3 was doing NEW at the time. wow, scary sounds, really dark visuals and tinny sounding weapons. did i miss anything?

The point!

so like Halo 3 without the Flood bs and demons? i agree. either put it in Hell or make it more outdoors. enough with the shiny plasticky surfaces.
