The developers tried to deploy physics as close to the real thing as possible and interaction is mostly correct, but nothing that stands out when comparing it to the latest games like Painkiller. Speaking of animations, the environment holds a bunch of video screens and other displays, some of them interactive and most with stunning graphical quality. There are even particles moving thru the light beam, though that’s a rather simple overlay effect of an animated 2D texture. An example for the raised bar in gaming graphics is the flashlight with its volumetric effect and actual lighting. However the toll is great and hardware requirements steep. The new graphics engine is probably the most discussed feature of DOOM 3 and especially the detail and lighting effects. If you’re prone to this condition make sure to have sufficient lighting available, eventhough that almost ruins the gaming experience. As one of only a few survivors, you struggle with shock and fear as you fight your way to hell and back, in an epic clash against pure evil.”Ĭaution: Doom 3 might inflict photosensoric induced epilepsy and headache over the intense gaming experience. In Doom 3 terms that means: “A massive demonic invasion has overwhelmed the Union Aerospace Corporation’s (UAC) Mars Research Facility leaving only chaos and horror in its wake. For everybody else, objective and gameplay are pure to first person shooter standards: Survive vicious attacks of the Undead and kill them all in return! you pick!)Įverybody who knows Doom and Doom II doesn’t need an explanation what Doom 3 is all about. In anticipation of the final drill on the way to become the ultimate soldier (mentally anyway), it’s now time to focus on slaying the Undead’s most frightening monsters. And military oriented gamers will find new material this fall with Battlefield 2.0 and the highly anticipated extension to Call of Duty. Half-Life2 avoided the clash by being delayed many times now. With more games of the genre in the pipeline, Doom 3 may not have such a distinct role as its original version. Given all the hype and actual facts, the third installment might as well re-create a portion of that impact on the gaming industry.
The original Doom (shareware) made big waves back in 1993 and ever since is considered one of the most influential 3D computer games ever.
