Yup. I loved the Predator and just couldn't play as the Marine for more than 30 minutes in a single go. Way too much tension. Damn that motion sensor. If it weren't for his limited eye sight I'd have prefered to walk around without it! It scared the heck out of you and kept your stress, blood pressure and adrenaline high as much as the real traps and attacks. If it had been a while since I last opened a door, that guaranteed a small spike, besides from the fact that opening any door was frightening enough. Anyway, I can still hear the noise of the tracker very faintly in the back of my head. Where's my rifle?

Doom 3 was good. But I didn't liked the final boss. Back in Doom 2 when you faced the...what's his name? Cyberdemon?! you had little rooms to hide into and just watch the legs of the monster walk by looking for you. Lovely experience. Hide, run like a chicken, shoot, run, panic. There were too many monsters at the end of Doom 3, sort of like the prologue of Doom 1 in a sense. I'd have prefered to meet the big guy alone. Him, me, our battle arena and a double barrel shotgun that is only available at the expansion . I know, we needed the monsters to charge up the Little Box of Doom (oh it's inevitable), but that kept the place too crowded and distracted you from the big guy.

I haven't tried the Doom 3 expansion yet. But yeah, I had my moments. Jumped on my chair a few times, dropped the mouse on the floor once. Scary pixels.
