Added an entry about Doom 3

Added DiffLines:

* In Doom 3, after you get your PDA from the receptionist, stick around and read the report he's typing on his computer. He'll eventually add a supplemental section complaining about your rudeness and how you were reading everything he typed.

* The infamous [[HarderThanHard Nightmare!]] difficulty wasn't in the original release of the game. People who beat it actually started complaining to Id that Ultra-Violence was [[SoEasyItSucks too easy]] for the hardest difficulty, so the devs [[GoneHorriblyRight took them up on their challenge]] on patches and future re-releases with a difficulty that [[LampshadeHanging isn't even remotely fair.]]

* ''Doom 3'' explains why there are chainsaws on Mars: They got mixed up in an order for ''jackhammers''.
* Late in the third game, you can come across a terminal covered in blood. The terminal details how to perform a sacrifice to the forces of Hell written like cookbook instructions.
* Finding PDAs with entries complaining about spam mail, or planning parties is pretty funny if just for the contrast of them.
* [=MAP20=] of Doom II, ''Gotcha!'', becomes this in retrospect- the demons deployed their two most powerful monsters in the same spot, thinking it a foolproof plan. If Doomguy plays his cards right, they'll end up... [[EpicFail fighting each other]].
* The Xbox 360 Arcade port of Doom II has achievements that quote the Doom comic, including "You Have Huge Guts" for killing a Cyberdemon with your fists.

Worth many a laugh. Great for dumb fun.

\n* Russian Overkill gives the player intentionally [[GameBreaker game breakingly-powerful]] weapons, items which can casually give the player hundreds or thousands of HP in health and 100% damage reduction armor, and [[YouNukeEm allows you to launch several flavors of nuclear weapon]] into your foes. What do they get? Health multipliers if you're feeling generous. Even the notorious nuts.wad becomes a joke with the [[NoKillLikeOverkill absurdly overpowered arsenal]] you have available to you. Some highlights of your very extensive arsenal include:
** A character who can launch [[Machinima/TheGmodIdiotBox explosive, homing CRT monitors]]. Or drop [[{{VideoGame/Worms}} a certain highly-explosive donkey statue]].
** A character who can [[Film/ThreeHundred Sparta kick]] hard enough to one-shot a Cyberdemon.
** A replacement for the invulnerability sphere that makes you scream at the top of your lungs while heavy metal blares in the background.
** An automatic shotgun that can launch a spread of empty shell casings.
** An automatic shotgun that can launch a giant, bouncing shell casing that spews hundreds of normal sized shell casings in all directions to the tune of 1812 Overture.
** The most powerful weapon of all is a beacon which drops a Hindenburg-sized (and shaped) nuke that falls to the tune of Ride of the Valkyries before exploding with enough force to potentially wipe out entire maps. Even the above-mentioned nuts.wad, with over 10,000 monsters, will have upwards of 8,000 of them killed in one blast if used right.
*** Naturally, the player is not immune to their own ordinance and they quickly become a greater threat to themselves than the enemies ever were.

* During the E3 presentation of the 4th game, Doomguy comes across a palm-reader he doesn't have clearance for. He tracks down the corpse of someone who did have clearance, casually tears off his (remaining) arm and uses that to clear the way.

* One visual glitch is that, regardless of where on the image an enemy's weapon is, its attack emerges from its midriff. This resulted in unintended humour in the Ultimate {{Simpsons}} Doom mod, where the Cyberdemon is Mr. Burns... and [[PhallicWeapon his rockets emerge from his crotch]].
