I don't think anything will ever be able to top the original Doom in terms of the sheer terror it evoked. I remember playing it late one night all alone in the house - It was the first time I ever got to the final chapter, the one with all the skewered heads and giant pentagrams and that really harrowing music. Anyway, you know when you get shivers down your spine? I got those and they wouldn't stop! Wave after wave up and down my back, it felt like I was getting a massage from the grim reaper! I was so scared I shut the computer off and unplugged it then I ran into the bathroom, locked the door, jumped in the bathtub and pulled the curtain shut. I sat there crying and praying to God for an hour until my mom came home and saved me..

any of you guys ever hear of a game called ZPC? It looks like an evil jesus type doom game! I wanna give it a try cause the charactors are made by the artist who does the KMFDM album covers.

Yeah, I've played it. Gameplay was so so but the graphical style that permeated it was something else... Psychadelic Nazi Germany.

Oscillik: Blair Witch Project scared the crap out of me too..
I honestly think Doom 3 will set a new standard for shoot?em ups. Have you seen that Final Fantasy flick? When games get to look like that, i?ll happily go and BUY them myself..

If your running 2000 or XP then right click the shortcut and go into properties. There's a part on one of the TABS that is called Compatibility mode. You can set it to Win '95. Should work then.

glad someone agrees with me! everyone i speak to irl say it's crap! lol
DOOM III is gonna have to be a bit more innovative though, with the gameplay....but then again, what else could you do with a FPS other than have craploads of baddies to shoot?
i'm not trying to slate it or anything, it's just that the likes of Half-Life, and AvP 2 made me think "maybe id ISN'T the daddy of shoot em ups"
lol

"the likes of Half-Life, and AvP 2 made me think "maybe id ISN'T

>binaural tea
well, yeah, but maybe i used the wrong wording
what i meant to say was for years, i'd only play doom, quake, quake 2
i'd only play games that were ID games......then half-life came along, and the ID games started gathering dust on my hard drive (figuratively speaking)
then i went back to good old ID.....then i discovered AvP 2........need i say more really?

Anyone know of anything other than the Macworld footage being available. I'd love to see it just running being played. The Macworld stuff was apparently being run on GeForce 3 which I find surprising but it remains to be seen.

"Early indications suggest that the target system for Doom 3 will be a 700 mhz system with 128 megabytes of RAM and a "high-end" video card (assumably GeForce-level or higher). However, these specs are very tentative and will probably change multiple times. There will probably be versions released for Windows, Linux, and Mac."

I am spending a huge amount of graphics horsepower to allow the engine to be flexible in ways that game engines have never been before. It is a little scary to drop down from the ultra-high frame rates we are used to with Q3, but I firmly believe that the power of the new engine will enable a whole new level of game content.
I am hoping that the absolute top-of-the-line system available when the game ships will be capable of running it with all features enabled and anti-aliasing on at 60hz, but even the fastest cards of today are going to have to run at fairly low resolutions to get decent frame rates. Many will choose to drop a feature or two to get some speed back, but they still won't be able to get near 60hz.
Remember, the game won't ship for a long time yet, and today's cards will seem a bit quaint by then.

Strange. I'm using Win2K here and it has that. Try making a shortcut to the file then right click. It should actually be a tab called compatibility. Maybe it's the version of 2K though. There's about 4 I think.

Tell a lie. Are you using NTFS for the file system? That could be the problem. If you partitioned a part of your drive and converted it to FAT32 maybe that'd help. I can't promise anything though.

they?ll probably optimize the engine further until the release, it could have impact on the overall experience of the game but maybe one doesnt have to get a cray to be able to run it.
