Half Life = good. Half Life 2 = not much fun. Felt like a rat in a maze in HL2. #1 was way better. Doom 3 was way better too. Just my opinion.

Too bad, that they want to add an female character to Wolfenstein, I don't see how a femme fatale will make the game better. The only reference to a woman in the game should be in Hitlers last words:"Ewa auf wiedersehen....."

(Corrected... )

Doom3 was pretty good, although i felt it had entirely too many dark settings. My only gripe being i wish the enviorment varied a little more. I reinstalled it no too long ago, slowly going back through it with some mods (sans flashlight mods). It really is dark and oppressive, its probably the only shooter i can only play in short spurts, and not the usual 3-4 hour sitting.

Doom 3 sucked pretty bad, I dont really have high hopes for Doom 4. Shooters with nigh on no enemy AI worked 15 years ago.

Doom is Doom, so yeah great news for Doom 4.
As for Half Life, well the only episode that didn't suck was the first one, from then on it went downhill. As it stands now we will probably be dead before seing an end to the story.

DOOM3, it mostly startled me...I only really could play the game with a cold beer and heavy metal music playing from the radio

AvP is also a game I dont like to play the Marines in Single play :p you feel so....vulnerable......

Its the same ones you see in RTCW. They run around fast and hide and are really hard to shoot!

HL2 over Doom anyday. The Ravenholm stage creeped me out big style with those rabid dog/wolf things . Doom 3 was like, hmmm... no lights... I wonder if there are any zombies in here! [/sarcasm]

I remember Ravenholm, playing it on my roomate's sticky-tape-and-string pC a few years ago on a rainy Sunday.

*shiver*

That said, STALKER has given me some creepy moments too.

Yeah STALKER is an awesome game... I'm not very good when it comes to things creeping me out I don't like it lol... takes me ages to get around in STALKER because I move around very cautiously. I remember in the first zone it was night and I was looking at a bush and two white eyes appeared and this bull/dog/mutant thing just charged at me I was like "ooohhhh shhhiiiitttt!" lol

The only thing I like about Doom are the shadows and the fact you carried either a weapon or a flashlight which makes you feel a bit vulnerable, in those narrow corridors a swinging panel would make you double guess yourself "is that a panel... or a zombie waiting to tear me brains out for tea?"
