It's a simple thing, but one good way to make games memorable is for the developers to leave you words of encouragement in the pack-in material. (slrpnk.net)

Doom 3 reference card: "A note of caution: Doom 3 is a terrifying sci-fi horror game experience. It is not recommended for the cowardly or the faint of heart. However, for those who dare to face Doom 3 as it was intended: Lock your door. Turn off the lights. And turn up your sound. Enjoy Doom 3."

This is how I played Doom 3 and I fell off the chair a couple of times. It was an incredible experience.

    Same here, even at 15 FPS.

    What did you play it on? I think I had a modded Radeon 9550 that turned it into a 9600.

    I can't remember, it was so long ago. I think I had a 9550 too. Had to run at 640x480 and turn specular and shadows off to get a decent frame rate, left bump mapping on no matter what because the game just looked like arse without it. I played through constantly turning specular and shadows on and off so I could alternate between gawking at the graphics and being able to actually play the game lol
