id: DOOM 3 This Summer

Abandoning id Software's signature "when it's done" release date, Activision and id Software Confirm Summer 2004 Ship Date for Doom 3 (thanks Joel Bowler) sets this summer as when it's done as far as the eagerly anticipated shooter remake is concerned:

SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI - News) confirmed today that id Software's highly anticipated DOOM 3(TM), will be released this summer for the PC. The latest installment in one of the most successful franchises in gaming history, DOOM 3 utilizes id's revolutionary new 3D graphics engine to draw players into the most frightening and gripping gaming experience ever created.

"DOOM 3 is the most anticipated PC game of the year and fans around the world are eagerly awaiting its release," Ron Doonink, CEO, Activision Publishing. "Id is delivering the most compelling horror gaming experience to date, so get ready for DOOM."

"This summer we're sending game fans on a first-class trip to Mars -- with a layover in Hell," said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. "DOOM 3 is coming to the PC and delivering the most atmospheric, terrifying and visually mind-blowing gaming experience ever conceived."

Why should we have to subscriber to IGN, or FilePlanet, to download blurred camcorder film of an advert in order to find out about new games?
Yeah agreed. It's the same with movie trailers - I never understand why most trailers aren't available (easily) for download, instead relying on that Apple site.

160. Summer - but how late? May 17, 2004, 04:54 Arithon
 
I've read a number of post-E3 XBOX DOOM3 previews, which are all talking October for the release. What we are expecting is a mid-June release from ID for the PC, but this has not been confirmed and a number of online retailers are still giving the XBOX version an earlier release date than the PC edition.
There has been no “.plan” from ID that confirms any of the June dates being bandied about. Why do the retailers think that the console version will be first?

Another E3 related thing that really bothers me, although not related to DOOM3 (this year) is the E3 movies that we have to obtain as “shaky-cam” footage. They are advertising, in the same way as film trailers, so why can’t the companies involved release the footage on their websites at a decent quality? Why should we have to subscriber to IGN, or FilePlanet, to download blurred camcorder film of an advert in order to find out about new games?

I'm not a troll. I'm a reactionary. If someone says Doom sucks, they get beat down with the reaction-stick. If you insult me at all, in any way, you get the reaction-stick. Since you did do so, you get the reaction-stick beatdown. So here's your insult for the day...

You lick the yellowish brown, green tainted, cottage cheese consistency, yeast infection from your whore mother's cunt.

Thanks, have a good day. And remember, I'm far better at insults than you, so learn some respect, STFU, and GTFO. MMmmkay, thanks.

Mr. Tact Apr 17, 2013, 12:33: Pretty sure that's the definition of trolling...

It looks like Kobalt is a troll too.

People just dont teach manners to their kids anymore, no wonder Bush is invading Iraq and American soldiers are torturing prisoners of war.

Pure and simple, there is no point in arguing with him, cos he's a troll and trolls are always right.

IIRC = If I Remember / Recall Correctly.

I find it funny that Creston signing his name pisses you off that much.

Funny shit. First, what's IIRC? Second, that's right, I would say, why don't you just sign your name Zeph's bitch, at least then people would have something interesting to read instead of your fuckin' stupid name that we can all see by simply moving our eyes slightly to the right...

Hpankin, I liked your post. I can't tell if you are insulting me or giving me the big thumbs up for being insane. Inotherwords, you didn't attack me with baby insults so I won't be doing that back to you. Pretty easy isn't it? You say something respectful or even barely resembling it and you get back respect. I don't see why this is such a hard concept for some. You want respect? Give it. Plain & simple. I did find it humorous that you signed your name, but I expected it sooner from someone anyway so don't think it was original.

If you look at my posts, you will see that I get engaged into drivel when I see disrespect or in Creston's case, just his stupid ass signature. I'd like to shoot that fucker in the dick with a desert eagle .50 calibur handgun, then sign his name with the blood and stomp on his head with combat boots until his eyes pop out and try to see how many quarters I could fit into his skull until he died from a brain hemmorage. I'm thinking probably $20 worth. Hey, it'd be a better video than that guy getting his head chopped by the Iraqis. But that was pretty fucking funny too! LOL!!!!!

Lol I am wasted as all hell right now, but I still know a fucktard when I see one. If your summarizing the thread as "id blows" you surely haven't learned how to read. Perhaps after a few more years you'll get there, lol.

Kobalt, I might be only 22 in a week but JESUS at least pretend to act that age as well. HAHAHAHA.

This board is quite funny.
Zeph - IIRC, it wasn't so long ago that you used to follow Creston about and suggest he sign everything "Zeph's bitch." I

I've made perhaps 2 posts to a BluesNews board in 6 years or however long ago I found this place. I typically don't post here because this board is not the first forum I think of for civilized debate. Most forums aren't.

However, I've kept up with the big threads around here pretty regularly, being a gamer and all. I enjoy reading them in the same way some people enjoy watching Cops or Jerry Springer. But never before have I felt such a strong urge to tell one of you that you're certifiably crazy.

Zephalephelah, you're certifiably crazy. I read what you said about Creston's sig. So I scratched my head and thought, "I never noticed his sig before. I should go back and look for myself." So I did. I was expecting to find some really demented quote or obnoxiously colored text or something. But all it consists of is his screen name: unbolded, unitalicized, normally-sized, unless I'm missing something.

Wow.

Zeph, you are truly beyond the pale, my dear lad. You are the foreman of the Cracker Factory. I applaud your honesty since going on the way you did and revealing the way you felt about something so trite as a forum sig takes real guts.

You even admit yourself it's benign and that you should overlook it. I think perhaps it's time to take a break from this forum for a while and maybe take stock in yourself.

Can Blue ban users from posting? If yes, he should exercise that ability, especially on such clear cases of infantile behavior. Sadly, he might figure out how to start a new account...
