This thread is mostly about DOOM, but I through in a Doctor Who question so that way I don't pollute the forums with multiple threads at the same time.

Has anyone ever noticed the space marine in the background of the DOOM box art? I never noticed him, but I do find it funny that he seems to have his leg blown off.
Does the Halo 2 box art seem to rip off the DOOM box art?

Maybe not, but you can see some similarities. Color choice for the skies, standing on a peak or ledge, wielding an SMG. Hell, Master Chief even looks like the DOOM Guy. It's just that he's more artistically advanced.
By the way, I did not make the realization the both games box art are very similar. I remember seeing the comparison on some website. Don't remember the link.
Finally, the Doctor Who question. Why aren't there any serious attempts to make a Doctor Who game? I think that one of the worlds most popular science fiction television series would make for excellent action&adventure/RPG material.
You could make a Doctor Who HL2 mod, I even considered it, but it would be too much work for me.
In used to always think that the DOOM marine was duel-wielding SMGs, but I recently realized he isn't.

His leg isn't blown off, he's running towards the marine in the front and his leg is in the air.
Oh. Thanks for the insight.
I would make Half-Life 2 mods, but I don't know how to program.
I thought the DOOM Guy duel wielded SMGs too. I also thought he had a shotgun. If you don't look hard enough at the DOOM box art, you might think that he is duel wielding SMGs because the fire ball coming from the demons hand looks like it could be the muzzle flash of a second SMG.
