About this siteFor six years, the Internet Nexus served as my technology blog, but I've since started blogging at the SuperSite Blog instead. If you're looking for the blog, please head there. --Paul Tuesday, August 31, 2004A second trip through DOOM 3...So I just completed DOOM 3 for the second time. The first time, I plowed through the game in four days and completed it on Veteran mode, though I cheated to beat the End Boss, thinking that it would be impossible. On my second trip through DOOM 3, also on Veteran mode, but this time played at 1024 x 768 with the effects all bumped up to maximum, it took a longer by design--about two weeks--because I wanted to make sure I didn't miss any secrets, tips, or hidden features. And I actually beat the End Boss (and, for what it's worth, the entire game) without cheating: Turns out it's pretty easy, too (just kill each monster as it comes out of the pit, and then use the Soul Cube on the big guy 4-5 times and he goes down). And sure enough, I did run into a few things I had missed the first time around, but much fewer than I had hoped for. My favorite was the "id" secret right at the end, which I've documented below. It includes a PDA with a bunch of thank you emails from the id folks. Good stuff.
