The main menu of the og xbox port was sick.

I usually don't care much for main menu's, and this is kind of a random thing to talk about, but sometimes a main menu can set the mood for what you're about to sink hours of your life into, and Doom 3's Xbox port had a fantastic main menu. Lots of what seems to be burnt flesh mixed with satanic designs, sound effects of voices whispering and other creepy voices, little clips of gameplay footage in these little hexagon-shaped frames subtly playing below the text, whenever you navigate the menu, the highlighted text would glow a fiery tan-ish color with the text becoming engulfed in flames, it was metal as f*ck. The cherry on top is when you'd start the game, before being sent to the main menu the game would play this badass video of gameplay with the theme song playing, while also showing off Xbox Live's co-op feature for the game. 

 

Does anyone else remember this badassery? The og PC version of the main menu doesn't even hold a candle to the Xbox version, and the BFG Edition's is basically kinda the same thing as the og PC version.

This is it... This is exactly how I remember it, this is wonderful. Absolute banger of a main menu.

It's okay I suppose, neat little part of Doom I wouldn't know about otherwise. Nothong to write home about though I think, unlike some absolutely godly main menus like Halo 2's
