  1. It's not that much different by MrRTFM · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Just a new flash demo

    Damn - I wanted to see monster guides, mapedit tutes, system specs, etc...

    Oh, well - I'm happy to wait for this game, should be really good.

  2. Really Creepy by mfh · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I went through the whole thing last night and they did a great job on it! The site is really creepy, setting the mood by going full screen flash mode. The music and the information listed there is all quite well put together and interesting. Did 2design do that site? Felt like his work, IMHO.

    Ahhh for the ones who don't know their history. This is the same story as the original Doom, which predates Half Life by a number of years. You were probably not one of the individuals playing Doom of a low end 486 in the dark and jumping out of your skin when something came around the corner. Personally, I have been awaiting this title patiently for quite sometime. No game since has scared me out of whits like the original Doom did. Here's to hoping Caramack and company did the same thing with this one.

  4. ah, Doom I, how I do love thee... by esoterus · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I remember setting up a 14.4k modem duel back in the day when online fps was mano a mano ('92-'93??). I'll never forget how cool it was getting the connection to finally take and there we were, two guys on the opposite side of town hunting each other down in the hallowed halls of Doom. It blew my dad's mind - he had no idea such a thing was possible with his computer... That game will always have a special place in this geek's heart... Bring on Doom III!
