    Yup, its going to be a trilogy, book 1 is out now. It's called "The Dreaming Void".
    Set 1500 years after the fall of the Starflyer, I'm about 3/4 through and really enjoying it.

  3. Nonsense on Possible Half Life 2 Troubles in Australia · · Score: 1

    This is a wonderful example of spreading FUD and treating idle speculation as journalism.
    For starters you cannot compare the Australian Office of Film & Literature Classification (OFLC), to the Pan European Games Information (PEGI). They both have different systems of ratings. A European R, does not correspond to a Australian R.

    Prime example, Doom 3 was rated 18+ in the UK and in Au it was MA15+.

  7. Re:bored with first person shoot em ups on Carmack On Doom III And The Evolution Of Graphics · · Score: 1

    Its because the games ID make are really advertisements for the graphics engine. ID make game engines, its the people who then buy ID's engines that make the good games.

    Half-Life, Star Trek Away Team, Soldier of Fortune, American McGee's Alice... are all games that were built with an ID engine and were significantly better then the original game ID built.
