Opinion is divided on this one for sure! Is motion blur good for gaming? Why do developers include it?
I hate any game that has motion blur and the first thing I do is switch off the motion blur in games. It just makes me nauseous.
I agree with Alex here, many implementations are terrible but when it is done right it improves the experience.

“In all seriousness though, I feel like DOOM’s success will be measured by how much the game has to offer. Graphically it’s looking spectacular, and I’m sure the latest multiplayer trailer caught all of our attention. Personally, the game is beginning to remind me of those late nights playing Unreal Tournament 3, which is totally a good thing. This, in addition to the promise of user-generated content, is making DOOM look like the best first-person shooter I’ve seen in ages.”
The campaign looks brilliant, like a true nostalgia trip to the original DOOM titles of old! The multiplayer equally looks like a trip down memory lane to fast-paced and frantic arena games a-la Quake, and honestly the MP REALLY makes me want to the get game at launch to capitalise on the hype. Problem is I'm not overly fussed with multiplayer typically in games, they can get weary after a while, and buying a game solely for its MP is risky - especially on console - as it's heavily dependant on the community!
Rock to my left, hard place to my right..
EDIT: On the MP note, does anyone know if it'll have bots available, similar to Unreal Tournament 3? I still give that a quick play time to time with bots (and all the mad mutators).
I’m exactly the same, usually multiplayer games are of no interest to me. But DOOM has sparked my curiosity, especially as someone who used to enjoy multiplayer first person shooters like Quake/Unreal. Totally understand your concerns about it being heavily dependant on the community, too. Which is just another reason they should include bots, in case the numbers need to be made up. I’m hoping the community will be good, considering the creative freedoms they’re handing over with the SnapMap thing.
Its basically a "console" ahead, in terms of graphics, of another shooter called Homefront thats getting ready to release. LOL
Great selections as always and they are...
Final Fantasy
Metal Gear Solid
Super Smash Bros.
Crypt of the Necrodancer
Unreal Tournament
Advance Wars
Payday 2
Then it would be a perfect 10 =)I have emailed Mark Rein about this, but i havent got any answere yet..
I'm on single-player as of now, it's basically a fun way to practice for multiplayer...but if anyone wants my tag once I get into multiplayer, PM me...the gameplay and graphics are awesome :)
The single player is awesome. This game might finally convince me to play online.
There's a phantom disagreer so I just agreed to all the people above me to negate his action.
needs to be used and flushed for real...ut3 is awesome...
But i cant stop playing COD4.. Someone help me!!! lol.. I just started playing search and destroy like 2 weeks ago and now i play hours on in.. Non stop.. Before that it was death match.. I think im going to play now, lol..
Anyway im getting pretty good at UT3.... If you suck all you need to do is find out where all the good guns spawn at and you will do a lot better. Finding the right gun helps a lot.. I hate that freaking jello gun that shoots out the green blobs..
