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.

I first got into FPS with Marathon, and (as far as I can remember) using the mouse was a total pain in the ass. You had to roll forward to move forward on the screen. Looking up and down was with the keyboard. It drove me nuts,

That's your problem right there, that is completely opposite of a standard mouse/keyboard control scheme. I can see why you don't appreciate that setup. There is just a finer more precise feel to aiming with a mouse, you just don't get that with a clunky controller. I digress though, we've had this argument many times.

I only got to try Doom 3 for PC for a very brief time, and then it was only the first level or so. I may have to rent the xbox version. I was looking into this as a possibility for xbox fps options:
