Impending DOOM

A few DOOM 3 tidbits: Deciding to be part of the problem, Long-awaited Doom 3 leaked online is the BBC announcing the availability of the warezed version of DOOM 3, showing a surprising degree of familiarity with the piracy scene (thanks Indy Hunter). There are also DOOM 3 benchmarks on both Telus.net and VR-Zone Hardware. Also, the Bjorn3d.com Forums have a bunch of DOOM 3 screenshots they are collecting for their eventual review of the game. Finally 1up has posted what may well be the final DOOM 3 preview before the game's (legitimate) availability (and the first review is in today's reviews section as well).

The majority of people out there are sick of hearing about this game. Who isn't? The id fanbois. The now-thirtysomething losers who've dedicated their lives to Quakecons and live competitions. The Trenchcoat Mafia-type kids who knew nothing of Doom 1/2 but have zeroed into this game because of the theme and how well it mirrors their daily lives. The outspoken minority who seem to think their opinions actually mean something are quick to bash anyone who speaks poorly about this disgraceful game and the twisted company behind it. Speaking in forums surrounded by other fanbois and the other types listed above gives them a sense of belonging and acceptance, labelling anyone who disagrees with them trolls/noobs/anythingelseinsultingacceptedbyfanbois. So while I know I'm posting on Fanboi Cetral here, I must still must say this: Anyone who has been sitting around looking forward to this game obviously needs something else in their life. /fanboiflamemode on Don't expect me to respond to flames, I haven't read an actual message/reply in a forum here in years. But this will at least give you something else to do while finishing that fourth bag of doritos while sitting around, waiting for this thing to hit the stores.
