DOOM 3 scared me to death, and I hated it. As I progressed into dead space it got a lot less scary, and it was fun.happyhackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14283817641231886542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1983907429101912979.post-1062622419677191212011-06-25T12:37:29.429-07:002011-06-25T12:37:29.429-07:00I agree completely.
