and it absolutely owns the shit out of Doom3. Can't believe I missed this one the first time round. Pity no-one's ever going to give it a graphics upgrade, but at least I can run it at stupid resolution with anisotropic filtering thanks to ATI overrides. The sound work is spooky as fuck, too.
That said, I've also been playing Doom3 on veteran and it suddenly doesn't suck as much, although it still spawns 5 imps one after another in the same place and lets you plug them in the head with the shotgun before they've even appeared.
It's a "headhones and the lights off" kind of deal. But yeah, you do need to get out of the house before the level design picks up. But any game in which you can magically persuade your enemies to blow their own heads off is alright by me

Undying is one of my all time favourites. :icon14: :icon14:
Sadly it disappeared again so fast and isn't really widely known. It really has a nicely scary and creepy atmosphere. The only thing I didn't like was the end boss: 08/15 giant tentacle monster which didn't fit into the rest of the game.

Load screens every 30 seconds and absolutely toss level design
I only played about 20 minutes of it though.
If I hit a boredom spike I might have another look at it and give it more of a chance though

[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.
It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.
I am now sick.

Good game, but it didn't scare me at all. I had heard so much hype about how scary it was and I think that ruined it. Highlights for me were going back in time at the monastery, and the last level in oneiros.
For the most part I liked the game. I got it when it first came out and finished it in a couple days time. I never found it super scary, but one thing that I did like and got to me a little was that sickle. It was the thought of knowing that the more you used it, the more you knew you where to be damned.
