Doom 3 for PS3
« on: December 05, 2010, 04:29:23 AM »
Hey guys. I know this probably isn't the place for Playstation talk but i'm desperate. Does anyone know where i can get hold of Doom 3 for Playstation 3?

I've searched Ebay for the last few weeks and have checked every online store i could find. Doom 3 does not exist!

Note as i'm in Australia it must be PAL not NTSC.

Cheers   :)

Uh, I think you answered your own question there. According to some quick Google/Wikipedia, Doom 3 literally does not exist for the PS3.

unfortunately, it DOES exist for some systems.

I wish it didnt because the games about as action packed as a church sermon.

Thanks guys!

The PC version is worth a play, IIRC it came on 3 CD's lol.

I quite enjoyed it and you don't need a killer system to run it.

I think I played it with a 1ghz AMD Athlon and 64mb GeForce Mx440 :)

The XBOX version actually has better pacing, since a lot of the backtracking was removed, but it's still tedious.  I'd much rather play through the classic Doom and expansions again.

But wouldn't playing Doom 3 on a PC be preferable as you had a mouse as opposed to a digital hand controller?

I havn't actually played Doom 3 yet but i adore Doom 1 and 2 on the PS1. Bad graphics though....

My laptop is too slow to play Doom 3 as it only has a single 2.1 ghz cpu and 1 gig of ram. Shame that.

Depends on cpu and gfx card specs, the internal frequency alone says not much.

I have played through Doom 3 on a a pc with 2.4 ghz pentium 4 (single core) cpu, nvidia gf 4200-ti gfx card with 64 mb video ram, and 512 mb of main ram. It isn't a lovely experience of course. But I have also played it on an AMD64 X2 5200+, ATI radeon x1700 SE 512 mb video ram, and 2 gb of main ram, and on such a system (already ancient for gaming) the game flows.
I have spoken !

Looks like you may want to get a cheap Windows machine. DOOM 3 is well worth playing - so is Quake 4, Half Life series, Bioshock, Crysis, and ......
I think Steam sells DOOM 3 for $5.00 at times!

I really enjoyed DOOM 3 and the expansion pack.  Though it is a different beast to oriignal dooms.   Amazing atmos

the relentless carnage of Doom 1 and 2 was barely present in Doom 3.
 
it was mostly dicking off with a flash light and pressing buttons.  
 
total crap.  I wouldnt even waste my time if I were you.

I played it on a PowerMac a few years ago, handled better than on my PC.  It is a "slow" game, but the atmosphere and story line makes it freaky.  It gets unnerving when stuff jumps out at you in the dark or from behind so often.
