I got about half way through Doom 3 and just got bored. At the time, Unreal Tournament 2004 was much more fun, whereas Doom 3 was a lot of drudgery and was so dark it was annoying. Quake 4 was better, but just seemed repetitive after a while. Doom 2 is still my favorite Doom, especially with the full WAD replacements like Eternal, Plutonia Experiment, etc. Yeah, it's crappy 2.5-D gaming, but it's fun.
