Doom III XBox,Co-Op online, ***great game*** Options

[Riel]

I played the PC version and loved it,never finished the game because it gets really hard later on and i just used God mode.

Co-op sounded like fun as well.I have to say that Vicarious Vision made an outstanding job on this...it looks amazing and runs at a steady 30fps,it looks better then Riddick on the XBox,you can save anywhere,there's even a quicksave button,the controller works really well...there's a little more loading then in the PC version,but it's not that bad and the loading screen is about 10 seconds.

I got to play some Co-op and it's a great ride...it's most of the single player game but with someone along...they added a few darker area's where someone absolutly needs to use the flashlight so it's very tense in some area.The 4 player Deathmatches and the like are very fast though but it's still fun i thought.

I'll be online with this most of the rest of the week so if you feel like playing online,the co-op especially,send a message.This game is at least worth a rental just to experience this mode alone.

Wow... I am surprised at the LACK of replys to this topic!
I figured all of our hardcore FPS people would be all over this game. What's up?


I played about 15 minutes or so at a local game store a few days ago. I was amazed at the look of this game. It is simply the best looking game I have ever seen. I have heard and read about people bitching because it's TOO dark in some places. Actually, on the PC version, I have heard that the majority of the time you really can't see anything unless you have your flashlight, and then when you have to shoot something you lose the light and the screen pretty much goes black so you are shooting at blackness. haha... That sounds a bit more irritating (and cheap) to me than fun. The Xbox version I played was pretty well lit. Of course it was just the intro marine base part so I would expect it to be lit. Has anyone who has played both versions noticed if they tweaked the lighting any for the Xbox version?

I have not picked Doom 3 up yet because I have some other games in the queue, but I do plan on getting it. I am even replaying Halo 2 to sharpen my skills up!
