umm, surely comparing Doom to Halo is a little unfair... its a bit like comparing the creation of the Wheel to the discovery of the atom bomb... The last Doom game must have been made about a year before Quake 1, so we're talking about a seven year gap between it and the other games ^_^

Doom doesn't measure up to any of them particuarly (bad storyline/ no storyline, dated gameplay and ye olde graphics)... unless you want to claim that "the other 2 wouldn't exist if there was no Doom" or that "Doom 3 looks better than every other game on the planet" which are both true... but hey!

and in the absence of a like for Doom, or an experience of either Halo or Metriod Prime (one day someone will finally prove that controlling with a mouse and keyboard makes you better... ie, when are either out on PC?

) i'm going to annoy you all by saying that Unreal was always better
