Except in Doom its Hell instead of Xen. I actually prefer hell a lot more to Xen. Xen was annoying. Hell was fun.

This game takes more VPU power than CPU power, you could run this game on a 1.5 Ghz P4 and a 9800XT and it would run almost just as good on a 2.4 Ghz

what stands the v for in vpu?:.

i know CPU stands for Central Processing Unit

Nice game, bought it today and got impressed!

And word is out that ID says the SDK is coming pretty soon. I beat Doom 3 earlier this week, so a coop mod would really hit the spot right now.

So, did anyone play the game entirely?

I got it a few days back and finished it like a few days after then

All in all, I like the graphics and everything, ran pretty smooth most of the time, sometimes went slideshowy, dunno why, there wasn't much exciting stuff happening at the time. It's really aimed at those only that liked doom I think (Playing by yourself all the time without backup). I prefer going around in squads of AI

*spoiler??*

Only happened once while following a civilian in a dark area, which I thought was quite cool, but as usual they get killed at some point! All the time when I think, cool I'm gonna group up with some marines or get some backup a monster kills them before I can get to them

in hell... the dark part btw.. it was pretty cool.. he died a few steps before the end of the darkness.. so i decided to play that part again.. just to have the company.. darn.. he cant survive longer then that..
END SPOILDER

over all.. i think the game is prettu crappy.. monster games is sooo out.. been since Q3.. or daikatana.. i am pretty forgiven to hl2.. since it got so much more..
