DOOM 4

The graphics in Doom 4 will be truly amazing. It’s too dark to see them, but trust me… they’re there!

If you stare into the screenshot long enough, the screenshot stares back at you.

I guess this is what they mean with black humor...

Just look at that marvelous HUD! Seriously, most games need to keep an aesthetically pleasing Heads Up Display like Doom 4's. It's engineered from the ground up to deliver vital information almost subconsciously to the player.

And don't get me started on the graphics.

Doom 5 will be so dark you won't be able to see the box, dvd, or even your PC without a flashlight.

Doom 5 will take place in a black hole.

.....NOW I understand!

This was obviously made to compare how the main character's sight is slowly diminishing with each game! As you can see he is obviously on his way to becoming blind and that's why each game is darker and darker. By the fourth game he's all but completely blind but by the fifth he will be.

if only the doom movie was so dark you couldnt see it... although you could probably tell the terrible story and acting from just listening to it

Shiver in horror as you are assaulted from all directions by monsters you cannot even SEE!

I know games are getting darker and edgier, but this is ridiculous!

Look at those goddamn graphics. Not even Crysis on the most BEEFED-UP PC could compete with that, and that copy of Doom 4 is on the fucking Wii.

When id said that Doom 4 would have a new blind-firing mode, this is not what I had in mind.

Talk about a shot in the dark

So what happens with doom 5? Does it become pure white? Or will they have to wait until they can ship it with a black hole so that it actually sucks in the light around it?

Reminds me of a review for Doom 3 I once saw from the movie's special features

"The game's dark, and I don't mean dark is in dark in tone, though it IS that as well. I mean dark as in 'I can't see a #$@!ing think in front of my face.'"

What? You think this is dark? I can clear this game blindfolded!

My PC can only run this game at its lowest settings.

Ha, they'll never know what hit 'em!

Now we are totally DOOMed! (or Gloom?)

There was absolutely nothing inside the screenshot. Nothing after nothing came bursting out.

BOOM! ....wait...where's the headshot?

Well, imo Crisis 3 will have such superior graphics, that it will just fire an awesomeness lazer straight out of your monitor, instead of showing you "the game".

Hilarious thought: The screenshot for "Doom 1" is ALSO from Doom 2. So yeah, huge fail on whoever made it.
