Ron Paulsen being in this game makes this canonically a Pinky & The Brain/Animaniacs game.
meh, replayed this at the start of October and it didn't age well. It's really easy to get lost due most of the level's looking the same. Quake 4 has better level design and gunplay imo.
I bought this on my series X because I didn't get to play it growing up and I really love games from this generation but I just couldn't get into it. I never knew where to go and I know people will say that's my fault but every single hallway looked the same and the objectives were never clear, also the shooting got very repetitive but I didn't get around to the guns that you have later on because I got bored of it and put it down after a couple of hours. One of the best cases of how important level design is
any doom content is good content to me
All I know is that this game scared me when I 1st played it. Nice vid!
I've played the Original, Xbox, and BFG Edition
To me DOOM 3 on xbox is the scariest version
Absolutely love it
Camp Xbox Doom 3 is a weird situation/case since Doom 3 can be three different games Doom 3 is also PS1 Final Doom Doom 64 and of course the Doom 3 you’re talking about here blessed to see all from 1980-Now what a life of gaming
Best Doom
No, but the Original Doom on PC was and is.
I love how several of the guns incorporate the ammo counter into the weapon, I wish they had just done this for every gun!
Man i played the hell out of the demo on the xbox magazine. I was blown away about how smooth it played for an FPS on the OG Xbox
I had the tin version of this, I must have spent 1000 hours on it. I still love it to this day.
Haven't peeped your channel in a while. Don't know why, you're goated my son.
The weapon selection you can use the d pad to assign weapons but you can use the Y button or B I can’t remember, to cycle through all of them, so you don’t need to keep pausing the game
Damn I love the OG Xbox library!❤
Yes
While a marvel port; the Xbox version of Doom 3 is so cut down from the original PC version. I originally played the Xbox version at launch due to not having powerful enough hardware on my desktop to play the PC version, but once I was able to finally play it on PC, it was like a new game, with more levels too that were cut to fit the game on the Xbox DVD.
I played doom 3 on Xbox yrs ago after completing it I wasn't impressed with anything in this game to me it sucked Beginning to end but that was over 20yrs ago in 2024 I've forgotten the game now days and I see the Xbox 360 on sale I'll add it since I'm going to add all the other doom games im not a fan of doom but since Microsoft owns doom since ages ago I'll grab them to help support Xbox overall fro. The Xbox digital store
Just in time for Halloween! Haven't watch it yet but did you talk about Resurrection of Evil?
Doom 3 kind of feels like a shertty aliens rip-off some of the monsters remind me of aliens
20 years ago 🥲
it looked amazing but its boring and repetitive, waste of an amazing engine.
Man I wish the og Xbox version was backwards compatible on Xbox one. The BFG edition is trash.
I don't know what it is about this game but I feel like this is the quintessential defacto Xbox game. Like seriously when I think OG Xbox I think This Halo Halo 2 Dead or Alive 3 Ninja Gaiden Black and The Chronicals of Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay. Like seriously if you own an Original Xbox and don't own these games your doing it wrong.
It’s more fun than the boring Doom Eternal. That was garbage
Great video, this would make for a great Spooktober playthrough. So fun! That co-op mode for the campaign is exclusive to the Xbox too!
Everyone deep down knows Doom 3 is the best Doom. There's just a loud minority that nobody wants to contest with so we all just go along to get along and say we hate it. Lol
I loved this game back in the day and still do. I remember playing through this game cooperatively over Xbox live several times.
I was playing this 19 years ago on OG Xbox. Two crt co-op with my friend. What a lovely game it was and still is. I have an OG Xbox and a hd crt tv and it’s feels good to play this on a crt even on a lower frame rate.
I own a series x and the bfg version and I have to tell that the atmosphere (which is mainly lighting and because the sound effects which are really compressed and super loud)on the OG are s the best.
About the smaller maps, we can argue is it better or worse, well if someone prefers more action then the smaller maps are better.
It has its flaws, but to me Doom 3 on Xbox was an amazing experience. The horror elements are so well done; I felt like I was there, crawling in the vents and tunnels to hide from bigger monsters, hearing them grunt and huff through the walls/barriers.
Love this game so much.
So classic, scared the crap out of me back in the day. Now I wanna go back to it 😅
CANT SEE SHIT CAPN
best doom game fight me
this game scared me as a kid, i remember people hated this game because it wasnt like the originals but i loved it for its horror
I was lucky enough to have a friend that to do coop in this game with, was a fun time, if a bit of a pain to set up 😅
Played the co op mode online the other day with a friend, great fun even today!
A lovely scaled down version of Carmack's bloated title
And the best dub is in Japanese😎
Tbh it looked like trash on the PC at high resolutions, so it's probably better on the Xbox relatively speaking. I wasn't impressed with Doom 3 in the slightest when it came out, even for the time it had questionable textures and really bad character models. Half-Life 2 was just in another league a few months later, it holds up so much better today as well proving the point.
Love this game on the original xbox. Yeah, it wasn't like DOOM 1 or 2 or Final DOOM but it had great atmosphere and was technically my first horror game.
