New Game Idea: "The Doom 3 Challenge" - VGF

MercuryCrusader · 08-25-2004, 03:56 AM

Before you start chewing me out for some random reason, let me explain the rules. I got really bored an hour ago and made an image to reflect my opinion on "Doom 3", the brand-new PC game that many can't play efficiently on their PCs because otherwise they will explode! Here's the game, which COULD be transformed into a contest of some sort. It will be picture intensive, so if you use dial-up, I hope you are patient.

So here's the rules finally. Make a picture of describing how Doom 3 just won't run, or run well. Here is my example picture:

What do you have to do? Make some kind of situational image with a text thingie explaining how hard it is to run Doom 3, because I know you can do better than me. Think of it like a stupid "hey, it's a terrible internet rip-off of Far Side" kind of thing. I'm not talking "comic" here, I'm talking a single image thing depicting the whole mess. Have fun with it, or don't.

Man, this is the first constructive new idea I've made in a while. Have a blast, dangit!

The funny thing about this is that that IS Doom 3.

Doom 3 on "Ultra" settings for most computers.

Doom 3 on "Low" settings for mine, and several other computers.

...I need a better computer. One with a 5 GHz processor, 2 GB video card, and 7 TerraBytes of RAM.
