No DOOM 3 This Year [Jul 22, 2003, 7:01 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Though id Software basically invented the idea of using "when it's
done" as a release date, and thus did not specify a release date when DOOM
3 was announced (story), many have been assuming that the game
would be available for this year's holiday season (and jcal points out the
DOOM 3 E3 billboard did clearly promise this year). Now a report on HomeLAN
Fed cites Activision's 2003 release calendar
and quarterly
financial conference call to gain a bit more clarity on when to expect the
highly anticipated shooter sequel. Activision admits that this matter is
entirely in id's hands, but that they are not expecting the game this year, and
have it "penciled" on their calendars for fiscal Q4 (Jan-March) 2004.
Further actual release date delays were gleaned from the proceedings as well,
including word that True Crime: Streets of LA is now due in late fall 2003 and
that Rome: Total War, console Call of Duty, Quake IV, and Trinity are now all
due in Fiscal 2005 (which begins April 2004).
PCs only have to do as much as you tell them. If you read your windows docs, you can actually tell windows to use a game as your shell, instead of explorer.exe (or is it systray?). This will enhance some games performance by 75%, especially if you are in a limited ram environment. PCs are only as "inefficiant" as the user employing them.
STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE, GET OUT OF THAT BED AND GET DOWN ON THE FLOOR, GET OUTSIDE RIGHT NOW, RIGHT HERE: GET DOWN ON THE CEMENT, I DONT CARE IF YOU'RE NUDE, GET DOWN ON THE CEMENT, I DON'T CARE IF ITS FREEZING! WHERES THE DRUGS, WE KNOW YOU GOT THE DRU
