    Doom 4 in the works

    Anyone heard about this yet?

    Not PC exclusive... Not a sequel or a prequel - promises to be nothing but classic Doom!

    i liked the torch or gun twist to doom3 made it really tense, never understood all the whinging about it, just grow a pair.

    Tense yes, but also quite incredibly stupid.

    Doom 3 was great for the first 3 or 4 hours, after than it just became a grind. I don't think I ever bothered finishing it.

    The end of D3 was tedious, you missed nothing at all.

    But on the whole, I enjoyed the game itself & look forward to D4

    Re: Doom 4 in the works

    What would be nice is a new Quake game (Campaign not multiplayer)..

    But yeah looking forward to D4, Its not a PC exclusive but its definitely not like everyone will suddenly buy it on Xbox LOL. And Quake 4 was on xbox anyway and the PC version was definitely not a console port.

    Theres nothing wrong with broadening the market

    Nothing can beat a whole weekend spent on a friends couch with constant supply of take-away and beer with 2 tv's back to back playing Doom link-up on PS1.

    Um, quite.

    I loved the fact I could go into a dark room, the door would shut and then surprise surprise I get hit by something in the dark behind me. Nothing to do with "not having a pair", more to do with the fact it was boring a predictable.

    Anyway, thanks for the constructive criticism of my post.

    I liked Doom 3 more than most people seemed to, so I'm looking forward to Doom 4. I can't believe how good I thought the game used to look... :O

    Re: Doom 4 in the works

    I really enjoyed doom 3 aswell, it was so intense at first, but then the fancy graphics and the dark ambushes were no longer scary so it became fairly average but still really good, last boss was really easy though.
    cant see my pc running doom 4 so i guess i'll be playing on an xbox this time!

    As long as Doom4 doesn't end up incredibly boring, with bad lighting (oh yay, completely pitch black levels), plastic-wrap graphics, and a so-so story, then yeah, I'll go for it. :|

    Doom 3 was just so dark, can't stand games that are too dark

    I think Dead Space did well what Doom 3 was trying to do. Hopefully id have learned from their mistakes.

    Haha agreed, but not being able to control anything is what made the game so scary...
