Exactly! Secrets were awesome. Secret rewards died out some time after the Thief series (Thief 2 has secret objectives in quite a few levels, so it was still something for players).

Doom 3, I think I remember what you are talking about. Martian Buddy cabinets? Wasn't the code 1154 or something? Otherwise there were small areas that had secrets (I remember one of my final times playing Doom 3 I found some armor shards hidden in Mars City Underground underneath the flooring of the room that teaches you about flashlights. In fact, that level had more secrets than the rest of the game had put together. Name a secret in one of the Alpha or Delta labs! Yet this area had about 5-10... Still didn't do much for replayability, the cutscenes kinda got in the way (the climatic scene gets old after watching it for the twentieth time).
