Wow, gamefaq reviews are pure crap and more than likey written by 14 year olds.

Thanks, though.

Gamefaq reviews are written by Halo Xbox lovers.

Are you saying that all 14-year olds are stupid? Because then you'd be insulting me, you know. :P But I agree with everyone else on this:

Can we quit stating the obvious please? User reviews are not professional in any way.

Idunno, I'd sooner trust user reviews than published ones.

>_> <_< Hey, I try! :P I may not have been one of the Doom 3 reviewers, but I've reviewed 9 other games there. :P

On topic:

Do you think this will become a Doomworld news article? I sent this info to Cyb. :P

I don't think Cyb would give half a shit about reviews posted on a website filled to the brim with Halo and Half-Life fanboys.

No, I meant the Gamer's Hell review and the 30 movies on Gamespot.

That Gamer's Hell review isn't as well written as some of the gamefaqs reviews. That second review that gives it 8/10 seems quite well balanced. No real Half Life fanboy-ism, just a comment that HL2 has a real chance of beating Doom3.

I am finding quite a few of these reviews quite confusing though. A constant theme is that the graphics engine is superb, but that gameplay is nothing innovative, and even a bit monotonous by the time you get to the end. They still give the game 94% though. Are graphics that important these days?

Sadly, yes, I think they are. :(

Sorry to double post, but GameFAQs now has tons of new reviews up (don't read the one who gave it a 6, that person...just..RAWR...), and there is also a new official review from PGnX media that you all probably already know about. http://www.pgnx.net/reviews.php?page=full&id=5561
