Did you see that footage? I haven't...
Dark Jaguar Wrote:Don't misunderstand, calling Doom 3 Doom 3 was probably a mistake considering it was a reboot. However, they really should go with a subtitle in these cases. They've done this sort of "same name as the first game" thing a few times, it isn't all that new (Sonic 2006 was... in 2006, about a decade ago), but it's always frustrating.
The solution of using Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) works well; I think I used to find this more annoying than I do now, though I've probably just gotten used to it. As you say, yeah, it has been a while. Also though, putting the year in parenthesis after the name, as is also often also done with movies I think, is a good solution that helps, I think. At least it lets you tell the games apart easily, which is good. A subtitle or slight name change is better, but at least that's something.
