DOOM 3 News - Doom 3 Portal


	Gamers Depot have at last thrown up their full review for DOOM 3, giving it an overall rating of 5 1/2 out of 6 stars. Here's a slice from it: "Like most folks, we had very high expectations of Doom¿s ability to bring ground-breaking graphics that¿d help raise the bar for games and finally be able to tap the performance out of the latest video cards.

And over at Counter Frag, they have up a review of DOOM 3 up theirselves, scoring it a final rating of 95%. Here's an unique snippet: "The levels are dark. Painfully dark.

In other words, the game is scary. Take our advice and play it at night (if you buy the game you'll be up all night playing it anyways.)" And over at Slashdot, John Carmack made a post regarding how he thinks DOOM 3 is doing, what he's looking foward to do next etc. Here's a snoop: "I don't follow gaming message boards, because, at its best, entertainment is going to be a subjective thing that can't win for everyone, while at worst, a particular game just becomes a random symbol for petty tribal behavior. This slashdot story is about as close as I want to go..."
