IDKFA - ID Keys Firearms Ammo
IDCLIP - ID no CLIPping
IDSPISPOPD - ID Smashing Pumpkins into Small Pieces of Putrid Debris (I actualy did have to search for the exact wording on this one)
Anyway, I might have a read of that 'Masters of Doom' thing.
How are demons from hell NOT gonna translate onto screen well? Man they have demon movies all the time! And a lot of them are awesome! How about the insanely popular Buffy and Angel? Dawn of the Dead? What about the oldschool Evil Dead series? Event Horizon anyone? All good or great movies/tv shows. All with hell strongy involved.
Genetic modification is just the latest fad and they're all "Wah wah, we have to do what everyone else is doing, otherwise how are we gonna fade into obscurity when we make a shit movie?"
I guess they figured the Doom name would get them their numbers. I suppose it worked... which makes me sad.
As for Quake 4 being just like doom, I don't like that. The Dark scary game just gets boring. They tend don't worry about exciting gameplay, they just try to scare the player. Boring. Half Life 2 is awesome. They don't rely on badly lit environments and having things jump out from behind dark corners to provide their atmosphere. They have things like an old rambling preacher shooting up headcrabbed zombies. And strange monster things that climb up the walls of the building you're on and leap at you from accross the level (which you then shotgun in the head for a very satisfying kill).
Doom 1 was all about atmosphere. The grunts of the monsters behind walls, reminding you that any moment a wall could open and you'd have to fend off an army of imps. A horde of monsters shabling towards you for you to skip around and pick off at your leasure. Monsters fighting with eachother (which was a great tactic for taking care of those larger enemies). Sure they had flickering lights, and some dark areas to provide contrast and a bit of a cheap fright, but the whole game wasn't like that. Bleh, anyway. </rant>
