>If a shotgun in a First Person Shooter can't reliably drop a mook enemy in one shot at 10 meters, I'd say it's a pretty fucking SHIT shotgun.

While true for most games, 10-15 meters in Doom 3 was considered "medium" range, because of how cramped it was, most of the time. The Hell levels really opened up and gave you longer ranges of engagement, which made the shotguns weakness really stand out.

Doom 3's plasma gun is still my favorite incarnation of of the plasma gun though.
