Brutal Doom

Anyone else playing this yet? Its fantastic. If you are a fan of the original Doom you need to check this out. I'm floored by how well it looks and plays. Was disappointed by the Doom trailer released at E3, just doesn't look like its going to carry the nostalgia/feel of the original. Brutal Doom is a very very welcome replacement =D>

Some of that looks absolute jokes. Still though, gotta disagree about the new game, Inreckon it's a natural evolution of the series.

I don't think the new one carries a bunch of nostalgia with it, but then the series hasn't really been about that so far anyway. Doom 3 felt entirely different from original Doom, but it was a great game regardless. Doom 4 looks like something entirely different as well (with the one throwback being the focus on constant action).

But yeah, Brutal Doom looks pretty cool. Makes the mind spin when you think of all the old sprite-based PC games that fans could alter like this.

I should have been more clear, by no means do I think the new Doom looks bad, I just don't think it is Doom. I'm loving the environment and style of the game, I agree its all about its evolution and that looks on point. HOWEVER, the gameplay looks weak. It is way to slow and it seems like it takes way longer than it should to bring down some of the enemies. The shotgun and the plasma rifle dont look nearly as powerful as they should be. When you use the shotgun in Doom\Brutal Doom you can feel how powerful it is, most enemies drop in a shot or two. They were shooting at baddies point blank 3 or 4 times in the demo, I don't like that :| . Will I buy the game? Without question. Im just worried they are going to blow it :(
