Zoost Posted April 15, 2003 Must be a mistake, but a funny one. Maybe somebody had to enter some other (doom 3?) data, and fucked up. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ioler Posted April 15, 2003 Somebody should buy it and then tell his experience. 0 Share this post Link to post

Rotting Corpse Posted April 15, 2003 Man they need to get new people doing box's. Most of them suck. 0 Share this post Link to post
Naked Snake Posted April 15, 2003 If that date is accurate (doubtful) then it's going to be released on my birthday! WOO! 0 Share this post Link to post
orgazmo816 Posted April 15, 2003 man I cant wait for it to come out all this talk about it is pumped I wonder if that date on amazon is correct or not I dont want to get my hopes up to much until I hear an official word on it 0 Share this post Link to post
sniperfrommars1 Posted April 15, 2003 Disorder said:They are both probably just covers created by those websites themselves, simply because they don't have a real cover yet. I work for amazon, we only use pictures provided by the company. Im gonna check tommorrow, to see if we have anything in stock. We often have things stowed, a few months or weeks ahead of time, and I would assume this will be no exception. Most things are just stuck in cases that say, Dont open until so and so date and time. Ill let you guys know tommorrow by 4 or 5 0 Share this post Link to post
Dubh Posted April 16, 2003 Okay, now I'm excited. Can't wait 'till tomorrow when that dude comes back with the word. I thought the cover art on first pic looked cool. Okay, say for example July 31st is the release date, that leaves 3 1/2 months to make up approx €1600 for my new rig. Lets say 3 months (got some bills this month) so we're talking about €550 per monts. Hmmmmmm, oh yes, It can be done. OH YES IT WILL BE DONE. Excited now. Sweet! 0 Share this post Link to post

Crix Posted April 16, 2003 July 31st?? WTF. I thought we found recently that a later build of the Doom III engine will be shown at Quakecon. THAT event is 120 days away... putting us in mid-august. Who knows how much longer after that they will release the game. Damnit, maybe we'll even have to wait til Christmas. Shit, my AthlonXP 1.9Ghz (OC'd) and 9700Pro aren't gonna be so snazzy by then. They'll be quite usual I imagine. :( 0 Share this post Link to post
sniperfrommars1 Posted April 16, 2003 Checked six times today. Still no word. My plan is to make pictures of some kind. I have alot of internal access so Im going to see what I can really do with this one guys. Ill keep you posted as Im gonna be checking on a daily basis. We stock lots of games, books, and cds, so I should be able to have the first down low on the box materials and so forth. Ill let you know more as soon as I find something else out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dark Fox Posted April 17, 2003 You can never take those things too seriously, its just a money ploy. 1 person recommended Sesame Street - Do the Alphabet in addition to Doom 3 Bwahaha! 0 Share this post Link to post
sniperfrommars1 Posted April 17, 2003 We are really good about posting accurate dates on the website. I speak from inside experience as opposed to just mouthing off at the nut. Thats when our vendor says we want to sell it. We occasionally ship things out ahead of time, for preorders, such as ocarina of time master quest. How do you think it showed up on ebay before the game was out? 0 Share this post Link to post
Dark Fox Posted April 19, 2003 Myself, I've never placed alot of security in the public hype.. alot of times its not the company selling the porduct but the devloper that pushes things back.. so I was not judging Amazon's credibility. 0 Share this post Link to post
BlueSonnet Posted April 19, 2003 One word of advice, if you think the zombie is dead, he is not! Yup. That made me jump once or twice. BTW: What age certificate do you think doom3 is going to get? 15? 18? I reckons it's gonna be 18 but Resident evil on gamecube is much more scary and violent than the original and it still only got 15. (note to americans: yes you can say what ever age certificate system you have over there ie pg-13 etc). 0 Share this post Link to post
