I've seen demos at a couple of E3s, and noticed it "on the shelf" at Best Buy a couple of days ago in a retail box with a coupon for the actual game when released.
Looks incredible!

Wow. I remember playing Commander Keen in college, which kinda morphed into Castle Wolfenstein, then Doom. Never looked like this!

my introduction to the 1st person shooter was Wolfenstein
I remember marvelling at how lifelike it was The next big jumps in quality came with GoldenEye for N64, then Half Life for the PC. I believe that Call of Duty represents another leap forward. let's see some more screenshots!

I'll need some new hardware - video card at least. And of course I'll be waiting for the Linux binaries before I buy. At least, I hope id continues its tradition of excellent linux support.

I just can't seem to get excited about this.
Maybe I'm getting old.

I don't want to put anyone down, I'm sure I'm not seeing the whole thing, but it just looks like running around in a maze and shooting each other. Multiplayer has its appeal, I'm certain. But what else?
I'm waiting for Gran Turismo.... |

What a riot! The Doom designers now have Hollywood agents - no bull! I know one of the agents. He just renovated his Sherman Oaks home into a million-dollar seller.

It may have a good theme and graphics, but after 30 minutes the "fun" factors of a game are still no bugs, good plot, pacing, and random replayability. The newer games are getting above $50 and it starts to add up, I'll might have to try the Doom series with this one.
Old but goody- I just got Grand Prix Legends(1998) and it just freaking rocks with the update! They still sell it at computer-games-station. Sometime later in life, when I get to the mecca called Neurburgring, grasshopper'll be the track. |
