I swear I've just been playing Doom 3 for the last half an hour.

It's basically Doom 3 with different enemies.

Don't stop it. The multiplayer public patch fix works so we can all play online at some stage.

The multiplayer seems to play alot faster than the single player game and it would have been bloody brilliant if the stupid game decided to have bots.

I hate games that are released without bots.

Gahhhh.

I'm not won over by any of these games. Those screens and footage of Enemy Territory, however, look abso-bloody-lutely spiffing.

This Prey? The one with the appalling enemies and silly looking red indian bloke.

Looks crap. Hope it plays better.

With lit outdoor areas. Who hoo. I think I'll cancel that download now, as I got incredibly bored with Res of Evil and didn't inish it (a first for me). If Q4 is basically Doom3 with new enemies, I can't see myself even getting close to completing it. Doom3 turned into a chore but I kept going as I'd been waiting for it for year.

Doom3 / Res of Evil - "Wow, an empty room. I wonder if something's going to trigger an...yep there we go, how surprising"

Snore. Doom3 is the gaming equivalent of a supermodel. Pretty to look at and ok to spend a few hours with, but ultimately vacant and dull.

Who the hell has the resources to put 8 years into a game?

Can't say I've seen much of Quake 4 that suggests anything other than Doom 3 with different enemies.

Prey looks alright though, I just hope that Id include more than waves of stupid monsters to kill, or at least take a tip from FEAR and add some uber AI.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
