An Entry from the Archives

It has arrived. I've played 10 minutes of it so far. Incredible graphics and scary use of light and darkness. Mainly darkness. Looong load times. Very amusing to see the old Doom characters re-rendered. (Also, there's a game within a game that's no fun except it uses an old Doom texture and the face of the original Doom Space Marine.) Also, with a Radeon 9800XT, I'm getting bothersome white speckles in many of the scenes; they come and go in the darkest areas depending on the slightest variation in viewing angle. I thought I had the latest driver installed...

The dynamic lighting is fantastic, and used to great advantage.
