im not sure about everyone else, but i take tc.xvid or.tc.svcd anyday. i prefer a smaller file with high or higher quality (and i don't burn very many movies, so why bother with svcd) now i better rate this thing beore i get tossed from vcdq

a - 8 it would be higher, but unless there is DD2.0 or DD5.1, it can't really get any better
v - 8 im not sure a telecine can get much better
m - ? i have not watched this yet due to previous releases being unwatchable

BETTER SYNC, MISSING NARRATION

video, audio, pretty much the same as the PRODiGY release. It is better sync, but its missing the opening narration which the PRODiGY release has.
Good video, excellent audio.

The video is nice, especially in the lighter scenes. Obviously this movie has many very dark scenes throughout and this does affect the video when viewing. Its highly watchable but to be expected. Its obviously not DVD but its good, so in the scale of things gets a 7.
Audio is fine, I noticed no issues while viewing the movie and it sounded nice. No sync issues at all from start to finish. Again its just standard mp3 audio but its good so a 7.
The movie.. I enjoyed it. It isnt oscar worthy nor "movie of the year" but its good entertainment and I enjoyed it. I'd recommend it to any sci-fi fan. I have no idea of the tie ins to the games, but it worked for me as a stand alone movie for sure. Good, 7.

Directv:

Have you rated this version without watching it??

I want useful comments please so I can decide which to get, the prodigy TC SVCD, or the TC Asteroids version.

Can anyone help with this??

Great rls, at some places i saw it was nuke for Mislabeled TS.
But i watched parts of the the rls (not sample) and it's alot better than the TS that was out.

Overall a very nice rls, and if u dont want to wait for a great DVDSCR or DVDRip than grab this one.

M- N/A havent watch the all thing yet, but looks like a typical high budget action movie with an o.k cast and lots of spical effects.

THE missing beginning narration :

" In the year 2026, Archeologist working in the Nevada desert discovered a portal to an ancient city on Mars; they call this portal THE ARK. 20 years later we are still struggling to understand why it was built and what happened to the civilization that built it."

I read the PRODiGY release goes out of sync around 15 minutes, then comes back in sync, is this also true for this release?

no sync issues in this release... just finished watching it on a TV.


some pixelation in parts but tollerable.

slight hiss to the sound that can be killed by lowering treble.


movie ends in a very strange place... almost as if the credits have been put in prematurely...



v- 6
a-7

m- 6

Watched the whole thing. There is one 4 second section where they change sound source, but it's hardly worth mentioning. Even dark scenes are watchable. Carries on into the end credits (the game like ones, followed by standard up-scroller) so not entirely sure what previous post refers to.

v.7
a.8
m.6

Mmm was expecting it to be better,

Video 7
Audio 8
Movie 8

Liked the film but yes its out of focus which is annoying and pixelated which is a shame the audio is acceptable...''

Not as good a quality I would of hoped for.

KB

Seen this in movies Just got done d/ling this and I gotta say the FPS scenes are awesome in this copy. Not better then seening this shit on the big screen but decent enough til I dvdscr pops up.

Video - 8.3(Dark scenes still alil too dark but very watchable)
Audio - 9 (Sounded Perfect to me.)
Movie - 5 (Only good parts of this movie are the FPS scenes rest of movie is crap But well worth a watch just for the FPS scenes.)

Getting this right now, watched a few rars worth...

V: 8.5 - A step up from the SVCD release; the color is a bit more vibrant...

A: 8 - Pretty decent, stereo

M: n/a - Will watch full tonight...

a little blurry sometimes but not too bad, FPS bit was fun to watch.

a lot better than the previous rls of doom but the video colours are to bright and red look and the audio is very weak for stereo sound just about mono but it is direct.

HOLLA AT YO BOY!

I just got this and well not very impressed.

V: 5 (dark scenes are still dark, a bit washed out) - after watching whole movie it was bearable. Though it did bounce from quite good in the lighter scenes to pretty crap in the dark scenes

A: 8 (quite good sound, easily discrenible sound) - very nice sound!

M: 8 (watch it with the expectations of it being just another mindless action flick and it's very fun!)

its a TS

Video: 7 - It wasnt bad... very watchable
Audio: 7 - Was decent... Clear at least
Movie: 4 - My advice is dont watch it with high expections, and you wont be disappointed!

Clearly not a TC. And it did seem to be missing something between the last scene and the end credits. Either that or just crappy editing. But regardless...

7 - Dark scenes are too, uh, dark. But otherwise, good colour and clear enough.

8 - Can't fault the audio, apart from one section (in the underground sewer bit) where it seems to jump to "cam" audio for a moment.

3 - Trash, and not in the fun way.

based on whole film (flicked through whole thing)

video: 7 - good considering it is a movie where for 99% of the movie the screen is nearly all black.
audio: 8 - little bit hissy, but very audiable
movie: to be honest I only downloaded it to see what the quality was like, no way will I watch it.

v/7.5 dark and blurry
a/8 decent audio
m/7 did not expect great things but it was good

dont really look liek a tc, more liek a mislabeled ts

v-7.5
a-8
m-7

compared to there other work..this is pretty bad


7/6/5

AS A TC
6-5-9
dissapointing.

very watchable

7.5, 7, 7

not too bad,dark scenes are dark but still very watchable,movie is very good,better than i expected.the bit in game player mode was something different.i'm not sure but the very end could be missing,as this version is 2 minuites shorter than pure's version,but i don't think anything is spoiled if the very last bit is missing. 7/7 /9

Video - does well with the dark scenes, which the majority of this film takes part in. obviously a TS but still up there in terms of quality. No movement and only missing the very opening intro ---- you even get the ending credits which unfold with Doom III the game in the background (which i found to be a pretty cool ending)---- colours are a little washed, but brightness is there. Nuff said.

Audio - very nice, no real problems, ever so slightly hollow. Just the sewer scene where it seems to jump.

Movie - hmmmmmmmmm, well as im a long time fan of the Doom franchise i knew i couldn't hate it unless it was a Uwe Boll crapfest. As it stands its pretty mindless fun with some severe scientific flaws to do with genetics (an extra chromosome leads to Downs Syndrome - hardly superhuman strength) but whatever for what it was it entertained me. The FPS section was very very well put together definately the hightlight of the film.

7/8.5/7

more than likely a TS, or a shit TC! audio is good, video is wank...pixelated in parts, but grainy as fuck all the way through.

poo movie

v:5
a:7
m:6

v - 7 (a little bit dark, even though i know the movie is dark)
a - 8 (pretty good)
m - 5 (didn't really like the movie, this idea of making movies from video games is stupid in my opinion)

.

Video 7 good but litle dark

Audio 7 audio was good

Movie 5 creatures were mostly animatronic = good with a little anime, but parts of movie were just dumb and rock can't act.

Im sure half the people here watched a different release... i was dreading getting this reading some of the reviews here ..ok its dark but its meant 2 coverted great no pixelation 8/7/6 If u wanna watch doom this is the version 2 get
