Hello everyone!
I rented doom 3 for xbox and it is due saturday.  I don't get to play much
but I was trying to figure out how many levels there are so I could
determine how close I am to being finished.
I think I just started level 2 on the east side (maybe the west)
Thanks

Thirty nine (39). You've got a LONG way to go :) I've gotten through 10
levels in three days, and that's with
lots of help using walkthroughs and the invincibiity cheat :)

Doom 3 for the PC has 27 levels - From what I have read some levels have 
been shortened for the xbox edition.

No offense, but you're full of shit, unless you have an Einsteinian IQ.
Either that, or you did it after first having played it a few times
earlier on. IN which case I might believe you. I know that in the XBox
version there are 39 levels and I defy anyone who has never played it
before to finish it in two days, even if they play it 48 hours
straight! Well, maybe in two days if they can stay up that long without
sleep and still have any reflexes left :)

Don't be suprised.  Based on the playtime for other games, a lot of them
can be done in one 20-hour sitting on a high difficulty level. (although
most players tend to tire playing one game for that long)  

Half-Life 2, for example, can be completed in a 16-hour straight marathon
on hard difficulty.  (Reloading saves is allowed, but cheating is not.)  I
took breaks (which results in a 1-week game rather than 2-days), but that
doesn't mean that it is impossible.  

For comparion:
- Plutonia Experiment takes 7 hours to complete on HMP.  (Not necessairly
first run.)  No invormation is available for UV and Nightmare, but can be
extrapolated by multiplying the time for the first level by 32/37
respectivly.  
- Completing Doom II on Nightmare and completing all challenges (Doom
Master, Incubus, Tyson, etc...)?  Expect to take 100 hours.  

> unless you have an Einsteinian IQ.

No, all you need is a familarity of the genre. 

I've heard rumours that a person completed Myst III in 1 day on the first
sitting.  Now that required an Einsteinian IQ (or just extreme luck.)

Well, I've only been playing Doom 3 for little less than  a week now,
but I've played hundreds of Doom 2 mods in the last year or so, and I
doubt I could EVER finish even one at the  Nightmare level without
cheating :) But then, I'm nearly 60 years old so I guess I've forgotten
what youthful reflexes are like :) Bye
