It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, but when those Doom 4 images surfaced, it got me thinking about what I’d like to see in the upcoming sequel. The last one didn’t exactly wow the world with its overabundance of monster closets and super dark, claustrophobic corridors that you could only light up if you had your pistol out. Thankfully, what the game lacked in variety it made up in incredible sound design and lighting effects. Actually, the more I talk about Doom 3 the more it sounds like Dead Space.
