Hey look what i found (pc gamer review of doom3)

Recommended Posts

Highs: Extraordinary graphics and sound; incredible tension, atmosphere, and mayhem.

Lows: Some stabs at humor fall a bit flat.

Bottom Line: Just as we'd hoped, it's a non-stop ride of tension, carnage and terror. A new classic.

Oh we can only hope :)

Well homeboys - its almost here.

94% is an overly dissapointing score, but hey, were gonna be tearing up some demons with our explosive arsenal.

Lets prepare to kick some ass - and may God bless us all.

Disappointing? Wtf? Thats a damn fine score!

Anyways, system requirements from the article:

System Requirements:

Keep in mind the issue has an entire article dedicated to system requirements questions.

PC Gamer recommends:
2Ghz CPU
512 MB ram
Radeon 9800
5-channel audio

Lowest supported GPU is a Geforce 4 MX (worse than Geforce 3)
Supported cards:
GF 4 MX
GF 3
GF 4
GF FX (and higher)
ATI 8500s, 9000s and higher

W00t! Except for the 5 channel audio I'm above everything on the reccomended list :D

actually im quite comfortable with a score of 94, and besides for the "low" parts it didnt really mention any critical aspects of the game ( who the heck needs comical relief in a space horror :)

Yea, kinda disappointing to me.

Think, it is has been in production for an extremely long time, and with the help of John Carmack as one of the programming gods, I honestly expected it to get 96% or possibly higher.

Either way - this game is going to kick ass.

Anyone wanna bet the game was so perfect that they had to come up with that "LOWS" part of the overall rating?

Well if the lowest part is that some of the funny things aren't funny, I don't think we have much to worry about :D

I'm so FUCKING excited right now, i've waited so long, and it's almost time! :D


Yea I know what you mean man - such a long wait, and it is finally arriving.

Hey, that one message on that scan was SO right...

"The release of DOOM 3 is nothing short of the anticipation of the second coming of Jesus"

That's if you blast through it without looking at the surroundings and searching around, they went through it on pussy difficulty, fast as they could, just so they could get a review.

Honestly, theres nothing to worry about ;)

Yea, that is true :(

That means if you spend one full day playing it, you will complete the game.

One thing that I dread about this is the fact that there will be dumbfucks all over the place doing "spoiler-runs" where they tell every thing in the game.

The first persont that does that will be seeing a hitman at his/her doorstep the very next day...

=D

Nice one, better get a new pc then, i recon this review is possibily true since the doom 3 box on amazon has a qoute from PC Gamer "masterpiece of the art" so i think it's possible its been reviewed. Damn why do us brits have to wait till the 13th of Aug...(if that IS the true date!) :(

Ofcourse the caco is in it, hope no-one spoils it by posting pics of him on the net.

So IS there a release date?


Nope, but the 3rd of August sounds close, if not, EXACT.

94% means it'll be very good to fans with no previous experience. Judging by how we (the fans who've stuck with the series) will experience it, it's safe to add another 5-6 points! But that's just IMO.

Sight unseen as it were.
