More DOOM 3 [Aug 14, 2003, 11:09 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
With QuakeCon getting underway, there are some QuakeCon Doom
3 Multiplayer Impressions on HomeLAN Fed describing the multiplayer action
on tap at the show. Since some of the first comments on the story below concern
physics, here is what this update has to say on the subject: "Rag doll
physics was in evidence during the Doom III multiplayer demo, including objects
like boxes and barrels that could be moved by weapons fire and a dead body
hanging from the ceiling during one portion of the level that could also be
moved by weapons fire. Some glass windows could also be smash but unlike most
glass in games the window didn’t shatter all at once but rather in pieces."
I won't deny that Lancelot, but that wasn't what the remark I responded to said. 
The way the story in Half Life was told was pretty cool, even though I think it found its roots in the way the original System Shock told you the story (through the emails and stuff you found, no cutscenes to be found in SS either), but the PLOT itself was pretty unspectacular.

Edit : it was the first game of it's kind to put you IN a story and make you feel like you were really there.
Not really rock climber. System Shock did it way before Half Life was ever under production.
I'm not bashing Half Life, btw, I think it was a great game, it just wasn't as big a revelation / New Thing (tm) as some people seem to feel it was.
