Screenshots of the DOOM/DOOM II ports on XBox would be nice.

It looks the same, but sounds better (gunsounds etc.).
There's a video review of Doom 3 for the xbox on this page: http://media.xbox.ign.com/media/482/482119/vids_1.html (third one, it's free). There's a couple of scenes from the ports of u. doom and doom 2 in the video as well along with some comments about them.

I still drop by from time to time to read up on everything when I find the time, don't worry.

I just finished the expansion, and I'm still wanting more.

I might pick this up for Xbox because the co-op would be unrivaled, I think.

smaller areas for quicker loading because the SOX-Box has only 64 Mb of RAM...deal

Od why are you replaying this with shittier textures and everything else being generally low res?

Release Doom 3, with the better SP maps that the x-box version has, with the coop mode built in for lan and online play, and RoE, All for a nice price tag. That sounds good to me.

Oh, and the snazzy metal tin too.

thats what croteam should do with serious sam. the xbox version is sooo much better than the pc version. and thats even when playing with a controller

Because smart arse my problem with doom isn't the textures, more so the lack of gameplay

I know the x-box doom isn't any better in the long run. Its still a 10 year old feature list with pretty shadows. But still, the SP game is much, much more better than the PC, and the fact is includes u.doom and doom 2 for free as well as a NEW coop game (New, as in lets take a load of missions from the single player game and make them work with coop, like id should of done for the pc version), makes it worth buying.

Oh, and for the fact i'm a lazy son of a bitch who just wants to sit in his bed and shoot zombies. RE4 has been taking up waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much time on that one

Trust me, when you replay a game just because you have Leons RE2 costume this time, you KNOW your a geek...

Y'know, odium, someone here might give a shit about your opinion about (insert game here) if it wasn't obvious that in two days' time you'll be back here posting about how much you hate it.

I ment in the FPS genre. odium said d3 for PC doesnt do anything that other FPS's havent done before, but the xbox version owns.

nothing really, except giving some subconsious flight-fight emotions, which has been done before too

Good gameplay, people.

Well, good in my opinion. Innovation for the sake of innovation is kind of a waste of time.

If the XBox version has better gameplay (and in all liklihood it does), it's worth buying in my book, even though the PC version is my stylistically polished.

Actually could anyone who's played the xbox version tell me about a couple of things:
1) Does it still do that thing where it spawns five imps one after the other in the same place, so that each time you kill one another one spawns? So you just stand right next to the spawn point with the shotgun and plug them in the head one after another

2) Did they get another guy to do some of the logs, or is it still obviously all the same person but sometimes with an inexplicably bad mexican accent?

3) Does Betruger still spend the entire second half of the game shouting "AAAAAAhahHahHAHhahHAAAAH! You will DIE, marine and YOUR soul WILL be mine!!!" every time you walk into another room, despite mounting evidence to the contrary?
