PLEASE!!! Someone tell me they've had the same reaction!!

Just downloaded that Doom 3 promo video and had a quick gander (which, frankly, looks great on 3 bottles of wine :) )

The first thing that came into my head, including the "that looks really kewl" thing is:


John Carmack (and all his staff) is the BIGGEST GEEK OF ALL TIME....



Sorry, but I've been playing games since 1980 when my mum bought me the then cutting-edge Vic20.

I was proud of it's 3.5k of RAM and 8 (count em'!) colours.

I had a SIXTEEN KILOBYTE ram expansion pack bought for the princely sum of FIFTY POUNDS (in 1980 too!!).

I thought I was fantastic, as my C64 years (the best ever) flashed past me.

The Amiga ruled.....

Little did I know, that upon viewing a video of JC, purveyor of some of the finest vomit-inducing action known to man, I'd begin to realise what I am...


PLEASE - someone put me out of my misery.

Even TR was a cock...!



Game looks kewl tho ;)


(apart from the fire effects - which I think suck)


BTW - I've got 5 litres of wine I HAVE to get through tonight - and the cats won't help.

Id like to be a geek if I could spend all day designing game engines like JC. Truth is theres always a price to pay and geekhood is his.

'tis true, when they announce Doom III has "gone gold" they'll actually be referring to the new hubcaps on his Ferrari.

dont actually view the page much these days. coz I live out here now, find that latest tech news doesnt have any consequence out here. thus my days are limited to NZ, BW forums and the helicopter game :p
