I actually pre-ordered online from Bestbuy, and despite it being a pre-order I paid less then when it costs in the store.
$44.99 CDN versus $49.99 CDN, to save $5 I don't mind waiting a day or so for it to arrive..I am not a WoW nut
Unless you are only talking about pre-ordering from in the store (and paying more) so they reserve a copy, and in that case those people are nuts

I agree with what he said. If you don't like Steam, than don't use it!
You are not being forced to play HL+mods, and what do you expect...HL is over 5 years old, I cannot think of any other mainstream games that have recieved the support Valve has put into this one title. It is their product, if they want to change how things are handled they have the right to do that.
If this is the response we can expect from a lot of gamers when future titles try to improve over time than be prepared for a lot of dissapointment...or is the majority of the public still upset because they feel lied to about the HL2 release last year...lol

I may be willing to go for the collectors edition. I mainly buy 1-3 games a year...Doom3 was 2nd and HL2 will be the 3rd, as long as it comes under $100 CDN after taxes I won't sweat it.
woah..Tomb Raider 7?! I think the last one I played was the original...back in the day.
meh...could be worse....Paulie Shore(sp?) as the doom guy.
on the topic of scare in Doom3, I hope they still have that feature where all/most lights can be destroyed in the levels (I remember something about this from a while back)

No Prob Chris.
As I posted before, personally I would wait another year or so for a vid. card upgrade...9800XT is nice an powerful, judging by that link you will be fine :D...I am running a 9500 Pro right now (hoping that runs good enough for D3), but I will see what my options in terms of upgrading are next summer...maybe a nice fast 512mb card will be out.

back to Doom3, for those who haven't read it yet there is a hardware guide up where they tested various configurations at the ID office.

Even low/medium quality still look pretty sweet.

That is a nice little upgrade you did. About upgrading to a 6800GT, it is not my call but since you are running a 9800XT already that should hold up for a while...I would wait a year and see what is out next summer, might be worth the wait
Wow, could we be going a full day without a full Doom 3 article? Hahah.. yeah right..
Oh well, at least there was some more Rome:Total War goodness today
I haven't read about that yet, did they switch over to the Doom3 engine? If not it isn't news
P4 2.6 on a budget mobo, 1 GB RAM, RADEON 9800 Pro
Blue, you will be more than fine.
I am running a P4 3.0E, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9500 Pro...I expect to get 25+fps, even though my cpu may be faster you have me beat with that 9800 Pro...I forsee no probs.
(unless of course you want a lie as an excuse to upgrade for some reason, than I will have to lie and say it will run like crap
)
calm down there buddy, I didn't start any flaming 
Go take your midol and relax a little.

if you like to get something out of $40, don't buy CZ
If $40 means nothing to you, I am up for donations
sweet deal, I wasn't planning on using my coupon until after it was released...now I have reason to use it considering steam starts the downloads of CS:Source Aug. 5th.
nice improvement since I last played this around their first release.
