Masters of Doom

[Infinite Ammunition]

i've been thinking of getting this book for xmas, is it worth a buy?

[insertwackynamehere]

Yeah, its a really informative book. I've read it twice.

[Amaster]

Besides just being informative, it's well written and fun to read.

[Deathmatcher]

I'd go even further and say: It's awesome!

[Fredrik]

Yes.

[Doom Marine]

[Bloodshedder]

The good part starts with chapter 2.

The writing is painfully lacking but it is an informative piece.

(I wouldn't pay money for it.)

[Mogul]

It's got some errors in it, and some weird displays of ignorance from the author (like the part where it tries to explain that a telefrag is when player A teleports and player B is waiting for him at the other end of the teleport ready to blow him away... hahaha) --

But! It's a pretty interesting read, to be honest. You find out lots of details and little known facts. Really, if nothing else, it's a few hundred pages written about id, so you know it's going to have some good parts in it. I bought it in the summer of 2003 and have read it twice. I may read through it again now that DOOM 3 has come and gone, just to get that perspective again of what it was like when nobody knew anything about the game. :)
