999cop Posted July 7, 2002 "The overall class for programming is going to be designing a game engine, and all the components that go into the game engine; the networking, the drawing subsystem, the input system, all the major components," Mr. Romero said.http://www.dallasnews.com/business/technology/stories/070602dnbusromero.4f557.html 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted July 7, 2002 Unfortunately, since Ling doesn't allow HTML encoding in the forums, I will be unable to grace you with 200-point, flashing, neon-green and flourescent-orange letters spelling out "OWNED" whilst a MIDI of "We Are The Champions" loops in the background. So I'm just going to say: Go Comets. Heh, and here the SGDA guy was worried about scraping together enough cash for Romero's speaking fees. Goddamn I'm glad I chose this school. :-P 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted July 7, 2002 Would it be soooooo cool to get a Tardy Slip signed by John Romero? Heh, this is college. They honestly don't care if you attend the lectures or not.Nahhh ass raping him in the toiletYou've never seen our toilets. *shudder* Nobody even wants to take a leak in the restrooms. That's how scary they are. You'd die from infection before you even opened your pants. I'm wondering how long Romero and Hall will be able to cope with what will ultimately become a pack of drooling fanboys. %P 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted July 7, 2002 Btw, does anyone else laugh at ION Storm's rename to 'Monkeystone'..? No because Monkeystone is a completely new company. ION Storm still exists, and is currently working on Deus Ex 2 and Thief 3. 0 Share this post Link to post

LordTrasher Posted July 10, 2002 Romero's teaching about engines and crap? I thought John Carmack did all the engine-related shite at iD. And BTW, on the whole Monkeybone thing, apparently the Dopefish WILL make a return in Hyperspace Delivery Boy. 0 Share this post Link to post
