I got bored after 5 minutes, n\and I'm sure many other people feel the same.

OK this is not the thread to post this stuff. ALl the complaints have already cycled around the forums so there is no need for another one. Keep your opinions to yourself in this case.

STFU and stop trying to cause flame wars!!!

I needed to satisfy my hunger for cool graphics and have a little bit of fun for once and for that, D3 fits the bill nicely. I do want to get a throttle and flightstick for FS2004 though.

I remember when I started playing MOHAA I also thought it was good, but after playing more intelligent FPSes, I find it a little boring, not to mention that its graphics engine looks a little outdated. If you really want mindless shooter, I would recommend Painkiller and COD, both are prefereble to doom-3 - painkiller has better graphics overall, and call of duty is more tactical (but not too much really). For something more intelligent and tactical, far cry is the best, and of course it has the best graphics of any game in existence. For a puzzle oriented shooter, I recommend Jedi Academy, and also it's predecessor Jedi Outcast which was a classic (plus you get to participatr in cool light sabre duels). And I would stay away from Halo, it's boring and over-hyped, just like doom.
