Doom 3 will be good, but you' d have to be an idiot to buy it over Half Life 2...providing that you' ll be able to run Half Life 2. I' ll be buying Half Life 2, but only after I' ve upgraded my graphics card.

Hard to say.

Doom 3 is going to be far superior in terms of graphics IMO. It really is another level.

Half-life 2 though is probably going to end up being a more involving, rewarding and modded game.

I would pick Half-life 2 if I had to make the choice, but I will definitely be buying both.

I don' t know about that. It' s incredible the amount of stuff you' re going to be able to do in Half Life 2. I was watching a video on G4 the other day and the player ran into a firefight, grabbed a heater off the wall, used it as a shield to advance on the shooters, then through it and knocked down an enemy and killed the others. IMHO, Doom 3' s got some nice graphics but at the end of the day Half Life 2 is going to mesmerize.

Thats exactly what I said Yoshi.

Half-life will be a more involving experience

Both.

Simple answer- you can' t say you won' t end up playing both, because they will both be equally awesome in their own rights.

The real decider will be which is more preferable for multiplayer- that is what it will come down to, and shall make for an interesting few months.

Either way, I' ll be purchasing both ASAP, and enjoying both :)

Half Life 2 totally immerses you in the game- simply watching the half-hr e3 trailer made me felt as if I was there, playing it!

Doom 3 will be the best-looking game ever to be played, thus far, and the scariness-factor will make for some caffeine-filled nights!

Bring it on, baby!

Well I probably won' t end up playing both...

No, I' m not just being akward. I was never much a fan of Doom It came out at the wrong time for me to really get into it. I was hooked on Duke Nukem 3D when I first got my PC and never really looked back. Unfortunatly I' m screwed because the only game this PC will probably play is still Duke Nukem 3D, damnit!

Okay, so thats a bit of a fib. But there' s no way this thing will ever be able to play either games. This PC needs a new processor, more ram, a better graphics card (Save me, I' ve got a Voodoo 3) and probably somebody with a lot of money to buy it all these things. It' s out of luck though, I' m jobless and broke. If anybody is feeling genorus and wants to buy a random person a top of the range PC, you know where to come

I' ll probably just get Half Life 2 for the X-Box.

Well my PC is crap so I wont be able to get neither for PC at all and probably never since I dont have the $$$.

But, if both manage to make it to the Xbox and look fairly close and as good as the PC versions, I' ll probably choose Half-Life 2. Looks to be way more in depth with playability.

Why is Half Life 2 even a choice? At this rate it will never release. But, given the choices, both, but HL2 will be the better. As for gralphics, I really dont see how you guys (and Gals) think that Doom 3 looks better. But, to each his own.
