Doom 3 is trash.


I recently tried to re-play Doom 3 as I had fond memories of it and the expansions.I just finished my first full playthrough of the OG Doom and had a great time. Man.,Doom 3 really has aged terribly. I played for about 2 hours and had enough.

I could not believe how awesome the first one still is. Great challenge and design. I didn't get as lost as I did when I was younger but that map really helps.

Yes the original Doom games are timeless. Still an active community playing them to this day, modding them, creating new maps, etc.

I remember Doom 3 being a fairly large step up for graphics at the time, and that game gave me such a headache if I played it too long

Now I'm just accustomed to it I guess.

I have not. I'm more excited about Expedition 33 and cautiously optimistic about South of Midnight.

I've never played a Ninja Gaiden, but folks online seem to like the remake. And I certainly can't argue with some of the character models:

You need to play NGB and NG2B sooner rather than later. Skip 3, its dogshit

2 of the best pure action games of all time

It looks good. I will definitely be giving at least this NG2 Black release a try.

Started playing NGB2 over the weekend.

Outside of a few buggy weather effects it is a gorgeous game.

I haven't played it since the initial release on the 360. I forgot how fricking wild the storyline is.

Seems I've encountered a serious glitch, or bug, with NGB2.

I've beaten the final boss 3 times and during the subsequent cutscene my Xbox just shuts down.

I turned it back on and it gives me a ventilation issue as the reason for the shutdown each time.

Anyone else having this problem?

WTF. Never heard of such a thing

I beat it 8x to get the platinum on PS5 and never had any technical issues that I can think of

I put a fan right next to my Xbox and beat the Archfiend a 4th time.

Finally made it through the cutscene and credits.
