Doom III vs. Halo 2

[dave_m123]

Doom3 sorta seems more like a surival Horror game from the screenshots ive seen.

i will take co-op sci fi action adventure over Rambo style Helldemon atmosphere anyday.

Halo2 it is!

I like the Halo story a lot, and thing the series has a lot of potential. However, if Halo 2 turns out to be a lot like Halo 1, then Doom 3 will win easily.
I'll try to compare them side by side.

Both games have linear level progression with no chance of multiple endings.
Both games have you simply go kill everything you can, and operate a few lever-and-door puzzles.
Doom 3 has a far better and more atmospheric graphics engine than Halo.
You can drive vehicles in Halo but not Doom 3.
Halo has troops - who you can't control in any way and who merely get killed.
Doom 3 has you alone because they killed off all your buddies before the game starts.
Both games have a sci fi storyline that has you facing off against a horde of wierd sadistic monsters.
Both games are probably way overrated.

So there. I can't decide now. They both seem to even out somewhat in the end. Ah, I'll probably skip them both. Where's my Maelstrom?

Note: This comparison was done with what I know of Doom 1 and Halo 1.

That's great news - he did a fantastic job on the music and sound for Quake!
