History Of Doom Movie Debuts
Rogerpq3 writes "A G4/Tech TV feature on DOOM 3, offering a history of the DOOM franchise in the words of the folks at id Software. The clip can be found on the air on The DOOM Franchise, episode 310 of a series called 'Icons.' The piece offers clips from DOOM 3 and other games, interview footage, analysis and more, and for those without access to the program. You can download the movie at: 3DGamers, Doom3HQ, Doom3.de, Doom3maps.de, and FileShack. It's really worth the download for any Doom and id fans out there. (Thanks: BluesNews)"
Does this mena that there will now be another good thing to watch on G4TTV? (The first being the back of my eyelids of course).
TechTV wasn't a GREAT network, but I never turned to it and felt like my brain was being removed from the back of my head. Now, post merger, the content is trite, the reviews are lame (but getting better at least), and the Screen Savers has passed into unwatchable. Maybe I am missing some show that comes on in my off time, but what is good on the network?
There is nothing wrong with being gay. It's getting caught where the trouble lies.
- First played doom on a 486 at my buddy's place
- His mother had to kick me out after playing on the family computer for 8 hours at a time
- Could not afford a system that could run Doom
- Finally got a p100 and bought Quake
- Headfirst into the mod community
- Made levels for Quake, Q2, Q3
- Mods include Thunderwalker 2, Allstar2 CTF, Painkeep Arena
- Invented Doom for Columbine that will likely never see the light of day (for obvious reasons)
- Decided to design Doom 3 mod tenatively called "Doom 3 Bloopers" where we have some fun modding the orginal game
- Still can't afford a computer that can play latest Doom Game
The dangers of knowledge trigger emotional distress in human beings.
