Don't know if this has been mentioned yet but Greenmangaming have a 20% code on their front page, brings this down to £16.

You can get it off Amazon for £14 with free P/P
Or
Get it from Game online and get it for £15 free P/P. And get Rage for free (I got this one)
 
Is this worth the £20 asking price or should I wait till Xmas sales? I've seen comparisons between the BFG Edition and a modded DooM 3 and the BFG Edition looks like vanilla DooM 3, looked really disappointing.

well hopefully the mods can be enabled and some of the mods can spill over to the BFG edition.
personally, i think its worth it, even more so if you get it from the place that gives you rage too. ive never bought doom 3 but ive always wanted it. steamworks is just a flappin' bonus too! :D
 
lol plays better than original and has mods coming which has already been tweeted :rolleyes:

what these nablets dont tell you about mods like sikkmod and so on they cause as many if not more issues than the older game version .

yes it does look a bit better but is buggy with them on and causes graphical artifacts and glitches especially for ati users

basically wait till its sorted very soon then lets here whats said :p

now back to bf3 thread neil ;)
 
Mods or no mods, i'm not sure the sarcasm/nabs is warranted towards dsogaming, they specifically compared the two vanilla versions no?
 
the bit about a rage editor being made available and not being has unsettled me again, i never even knew about it lol :p

Oh well, with a bit of luck all this doom and gloom might help speed up the mod support!

I think this is just a direct port from console version. Wouldn't waste cash on this.

Why would it be a "port" (a word you seem to cherish), surely its just doom3 with the expansion levels added, some new levels and other bits and pieces?

What’s also sad is that this new version looks worse in some areas than the vanilla version did back in the days. Yes, shaders have been tweaked in this new version but the flashlight does not cast shadows. It’s true that id Software had troubles with the console version of Doom 3: BFG. Our guess is that Carmack decided to ditch the dynamic shadows that are casted by the flashlight in order to gain a bit more performance on consoles. And as you may have guessed, that console limitation was ported to the PC version.

in BFBFG the muzzle flashes from the guns don’t cast light. In the original Doom 3, the light thrown by firing a gun turned several demonic firefights into these awesome strobing action set pieces. In

I would rather play the original, it's the better game visually.

id Software, Doom 3 BFG Edition and how the mighty has fallen in the eyes of PC gamers

Sounds like a lot of whining about nothing. Mod support for BFG is coming. PC gamers have had D3 for 8 years, isn't it glaringly obvious to them that this release is aimed at consoles? Get a fan base before D4=profit. Buy the original if life becomes unbearable without mods for a week or so, otherwise enjoy the new one in 3D/Oculus Rift or play it maxxed out at 120hz.

As regards the RAGE editor, most people on here whined about RAGE "sucking" and being a shoddy "Port", now we get whining about an Editor not being released for a game everyone (apart from me, it seems) hated anyway.

You couldn't make it up.
