Gamespot has posted a blurb from id Software's Todd Hollenshead stating that DOOM 3 for the Xbox is unlikely to ship before 2005. Here is his statement: "It's probably not going to come out this year," Hollenshead told Reuters today. "Back in May, we were kind of hoping we'd have a holiday launch. I'm not sure we're going to get there." Previously, Hollenshead had not leaned one way or the other, offering only neutral statements such as, "It is still up in the air" or "We can't say, at this point, that it's going to come out this year." Hollenshead's latest statement seems to be a concession that id will again take its time to bring Doom 3 to market. That is indeed sad news for those kiddies out there hoping to get a little DOOM 3 goodness in their stockings this year. Hopefully it doesn't slip too far into 2005. |

Hl2 is preloading to Steam users from.... TOMORROW! It's only Textures and sounds and shit which isn't going to change but surely it's a sign that the release is fucking imminent! OH SHIT I CAN'T WAIT! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
preloading..? that must mean that quite a massive amount of people have already bought the game, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I believe so. I'm waiting to see where I can pre-order the collectors edition from. There's word of cool stuff inside. Possibly a live Head Crab! |
||||||||
|

|
|
when I used to play counter-strike, about a year ago, I was an admin on a friends server. one of the admin-commands was to spawn one of the HL-monsters almost directly next to a player of choice. it would be especially fun to warp in a head crab next to a camper, giving players heart-attacks. endless hours of fun. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it was supposed to preload yesterday and then the week before, and before that dont get yer hopes up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wicked! elusive: I'm just going by the info I've had. The preload was meant for last week but they changed it because of the way the CS:S preload had gone and the amount of info they were getting back. I'm getting my hopes up anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's no news of a preload on steampowered.com.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's on steampowered somewhere. Gabe Newell posted some dates and then put a correction in. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but still, if they are really going ahead with this, you'd at least expect some kind of heads-up in the news section of steampowered. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Admittedly but then the preload of CS:S wasn't mentioned on there till the day is happened. |
||||||||

according to GameStation (a UK games shop) Half-Life 2 comes out on November 4th |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, in the UK it comes out on November 4th anyways |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What is "preload" please friends? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as far as I can ascertain it is part of the game that you can already download - in itself this has no use until you have the whole thing, but it supposedly will take off some of the pressure the Steam servers surely will feel when the game is released officially. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, correct. |
||||||||
|
|

Gold star. |

That blows. Oh well, Halo was destined to suck away most of my FPS playing time anyway, that's the BIG daddy... I'll survive. And hopefully I'll get a nice PC for Christmas so I can have my cake and eat it too. |

xbox is gay anyways |
||||||||
|
|

|

Halo is the big daddy? DOOM made this genre (well to be technical, HoverTank 3D was the first FPS game, made by id Software also) DOOM is literally, the daddy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wolfenstein. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
3D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yet it didn't use a z-buffer >_> <_< |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
horsefactory & giginger no, not Wolf3D....the first ever was Hovertank 3D ;) |

An old game I used to play on atari 800 XL computer. Two player split screen game using first person perspective. Not what you were thinking right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well it says Atari 7800 there, but anyways that's not a First Person Shoot 'Em Up looks cool though, for 1987 :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The same game was available for my computer. But yeah. It was actually very challenging when played with another person. Ahead of it's time really. |
