The site does not play well with your favorite browser

Re:No dates yet.

We don't know that yet.

ID Software has made plenty of technically advanced first person shooters, but after the original Doom, not one of them has been a good game.

Maybe there's something wrong with me but lousy plots, "shoot everything that moves, and shoot anyway if it doesn't" -gameplay and bad, repetitive map design just doesn't make me feel urge to upgrade my PC. I'd rather play something with a compelling storyline and gameplay than "ooh! pretty" that lacks everything else.

Now, they have been great technology demo, and base for other people to build the really good games and mods, and I guess they're at least somewhat playable in multiplayer mode.

SO DOOM3 IS ALLREADY OUT?

For you Americans out there in cyberland, Duke Nukem Forever will ship on 1 December 2005. Oh wait, maybe it's 14 November 2004.

Just be glad you don't live in New Zealand, where it won't ship until 31 December 2006 .
