DOOM 3 Hardware Requirements [Jul 17, 2003, 5:12 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Phobos Lab has a post up
with John Carmack's response to their question about the minimum system
requirements to run id Software's upcoming DOOM 3 (thanks Tiscali Games). Here's the
deal:
1GHz CPU
256MB RAM
GF1 or Radeon 7xxx series card

It's very anti Doom3 but tries to justify why
This review is one of the worst I ever read. Infact it's completely useless since it's based on a year old E3 version which won't reflect the game in any way. Don't get me wrong, I'm more excited about HL2 than D3 but this reviewer clearly hated D3 before he could play it for the first time on his notebook.
Of course animations are jerky and framerates are sluggish (especially when hit by a zombie) but this is alpha version... remember?
Also this guy has no idea what his talking about since he doesn't seem to know that HL2 uses shaders to an extremely greater extend than D3. Nevertheless he claims that JC has fallen in love with shaders although D3 does almost not use them and that it's all nvidia's fault... Whatever!
Saying the verdict of the game is "pointless" without having played a final representation build of the game (like the nvidia benchmark demo) does really add much to his professionalism.
Review verdict: Don't read it!
