Quake 1 reboot with Sandy Peterson and Hugo Martin in control.

I’m playing this on PS4 and it’s insane. Does anyone have a good link to some hardware I can buy to hook up a keyboard and mouse. It’s just impossible with a controller. Plus I’m old and the twitch reflexes I had in 1994 have long since gone 😆

I read some interview with Carmack a while back that he was wanting to take a bit more of a back seat in future titles. I guess what that means is he'll hand over the 'lead' stuff to someone else whilst he goes flying rockets or something :)

Hi, I'm trawling around the net looking for game related sites and their members to complete a small survey on the state of videogames. If you're interested please visit http://wilfscorner.co.uk/updates/survey1.php There are some results at http://wilfscorner.co.uk/updates/surveyresults2.php and http://wilfscorner.co.uk/updates/surveyresults_graph.php Enjoy.

I love reading interviews with carmack cos he loses me after just a few words. heh, I also like thinking about his funny speech thing after every sentence. top guy tho.

Zaldron, you've got me confused. What does that mean? "Not a valid member of the sample"

The hard part is done. The DOOM engine has been ported (via the Jaguar source) to the AGB. All that remains an issue is ROM size. I suspect that the original AGB DOOM used an 8Mb cart and probably filled it up nicely. With all the new GFX, SFX and levels required in DOOM2 I'd say they have some nice compression happening. Can't wait.

All we care about is the new DOOM game and as usual there's chuff to talk of. These interviews are shite.

I clicked the link to see what folk thought of the picture and what do I see? Fucking religion. You make me sick.

Stuck for something to write on your web page? Why not guess at the history of Doom and waste yet more web space. Buttini!

Can't even download the fucker. The first decent looking thing in ages and it's shafted. Thankyou god.

I'll bet a pound to a pinch of shit it won't run first time.

Video games just don't translate into movies that well. There are few exceptions. For that matter movies don't translate too well into video games (Goldeneye et al excluded). Doom is such a cinematic experience in itself that people think it should naturally do well as an 1.5 hour movie. The fact is it pulls from several movie influences anyway. Aliens, Evil Dead, Predator etc could all be classed as a Doom movie. It works well as a video game. To send it down the path of Dungeons and Dragons, Mario Brothers, Mortal Kombat would be to trivialise it and, to be frank, ruin it.

Doom: The Movie would have to be made for a generic audience. ie. Those that have and haven't played the game. Therefore I'd suggest pinching the essence of the game (alone, afraid, alien, hell, big guns...) and perhaps providing some backstory to colour it. To that end the script appears to work. It should however be quite a surreal affair and the best man for the job IMO died last year. Stanley Kubrick. Aside from that Shinya Tsukamoto (Tetsuo, TetsuoII-Iron Man) should have a bash. I thank you.

>> b) When the N64 came out, didn't the cartridges only hold about 32mb? That's way less than you can fit onto a CD I played the old Ultimate classics recently (Jetpac, Knight Lore etc) and they fit into 16k. Infact they've taken over from the lunchtime Q3A deathmatch sesh. I know that probably doesn't mean much these days but size isn't everything! What's more, Rare are in the process of re-creating these titles for the AGB for anyone that's interested.

--What the hell ever happened to freedom of opinion? It's alive and well and prospering right here in this forum. All that was ever offered was an opinion. Prick.

There are plans for a backlit GBA but don't hold your breath! Besides, you surely new about the limitations of the console before you bought it so why moan? If you don't like the console or the games that are being made for it or whatever then don't buy them. Alternatively get your C/ARM up to speed and fork out 7k on a dev kit and we'll see what you can do.

>>I'd rather take a portable computer with me and play Doom and it's latest ports. But do you love computer games (GBA has some fine titles in development) or just Doom?? I can't believe you are THAT narrow minded!

"You'd have to be blind to not see how our ideas have succeeded at supporting life way more than any other ideas." ok god. here we go.

It's bigger than that. This was a deliberate attempt at crippling the heart of capitalism. How do you do that? You target the heart of world trading which happens to be in America. Many many lifes were lost the other day and they weren't all American. Sympathies to everyone affected though. If we live through the wars that follow I doubt if we'll ever see it's like again.

>>One thing gets me though... Palestine is fighting a religious war. How can their God promote attacks on innocent people? I doubt if this has much to do with religion anymore! Just pure hatred. I just saw a guy on TV claiming that the face of evil is a middle eastern face!! WTF. This was on the BBC News aswell. Wars have been declared for MUCH less than this.

I've followed this dudes work for a couple of years now and he never fails to impress. His work for Epic will lift them incredibly. What's more, his style falls somewhere inbetween the Tsukamoto visuals of Tetsuo and the wonderfully gruesome H.R.Giger. Mint. Think you're a good artist now? Ha. That said, this gas mask creep would still squeal with a couple of rounds of lead in his guts!

thus making it realistic!

This is not the release material of someone who wants to be taken seriously! Utter shite.
