The DOOM comic

[Loké]

I present this classic.

[TheBalor]

I am in awe.

[BigRob]

I must just say that I have never seen a computer game explained to accurately and completely in a sixteen page comic. Thank you.

YOU ARE HUGE! THAT MEANS YOU HAVE HUGE GUTS!

[Loké]

RIP AND TEAR!

These quotes are great, perfect for sigs

 

After having fallen in to radioactive waste and just gotten out.

DOOM Guy - "Who do you suppose left all that radioactive waste down there?"

DOOM Guy - "And why?"

DOOM Guy - "WHY?"

[Loké]

I prefer:

'I don't need a gun-guns are for wussies!'

(Five seconds and a cyberdemon later...)

'Change of plans. I DO need a gun. I need a big gun. I need a really big gun.'

If you liked that comic, you should see some of the, uh, Doom "fan fiction" that's been written, like this gem.

Erotica and DOOM? Does that really work? Lol.

 

DOOM 3 is out now isn't it? I want.

[Loké]

Are pr0n links allowed? Anyhoo. My other faveorite Doom comic quote:

 

'At this particular moment in time I don't believe I have a healthier or more deeply felt respect for any object in the universe than this here shotgun.'

[Guest Guest]

Hey, Chaingun! The Hell with respect!

[Guest Aristothenes]

Might makes light.

And right now, I feel mighty!

Anyone read the rave reviews DOOM 3 is getting? Comparable to System Shock 2 they say. I've played that game (SS2), fucking awesome and scarey I tell ya. GameSpy say it's id's best game ever, to my memory atleast.

[Guest gniiiiZ]

IIRC System Shock 1 came out just before/at the same time as Doom 1, yet it did so much more. Regardless of any similarity, System Shock 2 has done what Doom 3 is apparently doing long before the advent of D3, and in my opinion SS2 is a far better interpretation on all levels except perhaps graphics. Having played D3, the only similarities between the two I have encountered are (rather flat, and comparatively inferior) audio logs, and certain aspects of the atmosphere such as the sense of claustrophobia and tension (and yet I would strongly maintain SS2 performed far better than D3 in this regard.) In my opinion, Doom 3 really is behind it's time.

 

Is Doom 3 enjoyable? Yes, to a certain extent. Is Doom 3 the OMGZ BEST GAEM EVAR?!?!?1111? No, I do not think so (perhaps temporarily so if it had been released 5+ years ago.)

 

Also, I would humbly doubt the provision of an objective appraisal of Doom 3, or any other future over-hyped title by the likes of Gamespy and the ilk. Monetary incentives purchase many a kind word.

pfft. I've got my copy od D3 and Hl2 ordered. I'm not holding my breath for anything spectuaculer (I'm yet to find something better than SS2. Pity it won't run on my comp now! ) but eye candy is good. And it looks like it's going to be fun.
