Doom 3 or SC: CT?

**MixMasta** · 03-29-2005

Which do you think I should get?

I was thinking, Doom 3 is cheaper on the PC, and they have the new expansion for it. But that co-op on XBL is so damn tempting.

Then there is SC: CT, definitely would get this for Xbox vs. the PC. The co-op is sounding sweet.

So actually my question is really two, which should I get first, and PC or Xbox??

If your PC can run it, I'd say get Doom 3 for the PC only. I'm doing the same, and picking up my copy of Chaos Theory for the Xbox tomorrow (or today, if I'm lucky).

I'm not a big fan of Doom 3. If you want a great first person shooter for the PC get Far Cry... That game is sweet.

Doom 3 was actually scary for about 30 seconds... then after 30 minutes it got reallllly repetative. Its more of the same over and over and over... the monsters get harder to kill but over all its pretty lame. Dont get me wrong, the graphics are sweet (almost as good as Far Cry) but thats not enough.

SC: CT. DOOM 3 is a fun game, but suffers from repatition and lackluster online play. The (PC) game is beautiful no doubt, but SC:CT will last you much longer. I beat D3 in about 10-12 hours havn't played it since.

Drinking and posting huh?!

I would go with Doom 3. I don't like SC. So I am bias.

**Variation-XBA** · 03-30-2005

Id say SC if you already got the PC one, but I'm getting both so I'm bias :P

**LTM360** · 03-30-2005

Now that I own both, get Splinter Cell. It'll last you longer.

**Shadow20002** · 03-30-2005

Well, i just have a chance to play Doom 3 on Xbox, yea, just got a copy of it before the release. The graphics isn't that bad like those screens floating around the web, is look sharp and great like the PC version. By the way, get Splinter Cell if you already have Doom 3 on PC or else, get both of them.

**Snowblind** · 03-30-2005

Get Doom 3 for the Xbox....

No, no witty retort this time, just get the damn thing, already!

**EMX** · 03-31-2005

doom 3, another SC is so ****ing lame. I feel like the second one came out yesterday.

**Brevity** · 03-31-2005

Doom 3 is the way to go for sure.

**Anthony4sho** · 04-01-2005

Get both.

What caspy said.^^

**Ninjermy** · 04-01-2005

SCCT is fun but the COOP is kinda short but luckily there are lotsa difficulties and so many ways to do everything. Versus mode is definatley a blast though.
My plan is to just buy both and if i really start to love doom3 alot over the other or if i just hate doom3 i will sell the leftover one. Hey mabye you can buy it from me!

Ehh, I say Far Cry is definitely up there with Doom3 and HL2, graphically. But Doom 3 bump maps the crap out of everything.

Anyway, Doom3 wasn't all that great on PC. The addition of a coop mode, and few other changes might merit a revisit, which is a rental. I'm sold on SC:CT, after playing both the solo demo on PC and Xbox, as well as the multiplayer beta for PC.

Now that my debit card works, I just grabbed SC:CT. See you laginas on live.

**MixMasta** · 04-02-2005

Well I got SC: CT a couple days ago, and now I'm very interested in the Doom 3 collectors edition. I mean the throwback games, that is pretty sweet.

**Koopa** · 04-02-2005

having played Doom on PC and CT on Xbox, i'd say get CT...Doom 3 has an amazing singleplayer and a decent multiplayer, CT has an amazing singleplayer and an amazing multiplayer.
get chaos theory, you won't regret it.
