No need to splurge on sunscreen this year - I won't be outside except to go buy more beer!
I had such plans for the summer: Regular cardio excercize, some hacking on a project or two, social interaction... AND NOW ID IS LOCKING ME IN MY BASEMENT WITH DOOM III I wonder how much productivity FPSes have stolen from our lives?

In the third level of the game, when you're going through the ruins of 3D Realms' corporate headquarters, type "idd3d" and you'll get to play Duke Nukem Forever.
No, seriously! I swear!
It's the vaccuum in my bank account, left after I withdraw enough to buy a new video card that can handle Doom III.
BLING BLING. Meet the architecture that's changing everything.
Its the first of the signs of the Apocalypse:
Doom III appears;
then Duke Nukem Forever gets a release;
then Hell Freezes Over;
then Taco actually checks slashdot before posting another dupe;
Then the world is destroyed in a great conflagration, the dead rise, the Messiah returns, four Horsemen, yadda, yadda, yadda
Athletic Scholarships to universities make as much sense as academic scholarships to sports teams.
That can't be right. I thought the Duke Nukem Forever release was defined as the last discrete event to happen before the universe collapses completly.
"Prefiero morir de pie que vivir siempre arrodillado!"
Duke Nukem Forever jokes just aren't funny anymore. Sorry off-topic.
No cooperative for PC? Is this some kind of sick joke?
How will people ever learn to work together like the Amish if we don't have cooperative multiplayer?!?
.. to update your .finger with some techno-babble. We love it!
(I'm serious, it's been ages, and the new cards he talked about in 2003 are now here, NDA-free)
Belief is the currency of delusion.
It's like a wet dream come true.
I believe that's called "Sex".
Trolling is a art,
"Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria."
True believers seek redemption from the sin of death.
Doom III this summer, GTA San Andreas this fall... ugh, my girlfriend's gonna leave me.
"Derp de derp."
That can't be right. I thought the Duke Nukem Forever release was defined as the last discrete event to happen before the universe collapses completly.
Nah.. Thats not possible. They need more time.
i cant seem to come up with a sig.
Non no no....that's just the demo.
Activision has also announced that they will be releasing this summer next fall. In its place, look for a rerun of winter 1986, and a short period during which we will have no weather at all, and will probably die.
tell me of this "Sex", oh wise one.

And to think John Carmack is competing for the X-prize on the side.
He's trying to get of the planet...I think he knows something we don't and his games are an attempt at a warning

No, no, no, you silly man. First, Duke Nukem Forever get released. Then Slashdot reports on it in an accurate and grammatically correct manner and in a manner adherent to highest ethos of journalistic reporting, and without a biased editorial rant/slant thrown in, AND they promise not to dupe the story. THEN the the universe collapses.
Oh, great. Now the spelling nazis are replying to examples of good spelling too.
Although thinking about it, that might be a more efficient way to do things on slashdot.
How can we continue to believe in a just universe and freedom to eat crackers if we have no ale?
Wow, you mean just like the FIRST DOOM?
Not at all! Half-Life's secret base is underground, but DOOM's secret base was in outer space. Totally, completely different things.
they're trying to promote a kinder , gentler image of a grammer nazi.
