Wow! Classic Doom3 ROCKS!
Mar. 26th, 2006 09:24 pmAfter an afternoon of giggling girls at a birthday party for one of Kouryou-chan's friends, I got home with a headache. A lot of water, some food, aspirin, and caffeine later, I felt better and went downstairs to try out a re-rendition of the Doom I classic module, Knee Deep In The Dead. I had my doubts that it would be anything at all like the original.
I was wrong. "Hangar" and "Nuclear Plant" are exactly like their originals, only with the super-nice Doom3 skins and much buglier monsters. Yes, it's Doom3, so the monsters are faster and tougher, but they seem to have the original AIs and the Imps' firepower has been modified to be more like that of the original Doom. I was absolutely giggling over the accuracy and artistry of the project. Whoever did these was totally rock-on. I wonder if we'll see Doom3 conversions of The Shores of Hell or, better yet, Thy Flesh Consumed.
By the way, here's a question: What is the MLA style for video games? On the assumption that book titles are underlined (or italicized where possible), and chapter titles are surrounded in quotations, I've been italicizing major releases and quotating level names. I looked to see if anyone had brought it up, and sure enough, The Columbia Guide to Online Style has with respect to titles, but not to levels.
