On the DOOM 3 Date [Jun 22, 2004, 5:52 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A couple of recent doings have stirred the pot a bit regarding the release date
for DOOM 3, id Software's eagerly anticipated upcoming shooter remake.
DOOM 3 Release Date Set
on IGN points out that
Gamestop
and EBgames each are
listing August 3 as the "official" just-announced release date for the game, for
which the release date had been "when it's done" until it was recently announced
that it would be done this summer (story). On a related note, a
few folks have pointed out that the British
Board of Film Classification has a
DOOM III Listing (thanks for small "b" blue for being the first) with a
rating for the game, a seeming indication that they've already been able to
review all its content, which some are taking as another indication of the
game's relative imminence.
The only "Official" word is that Doom3 will be out this summer. This only means that it will be released before Sept 22 cause that is the first day of Autumn...but, perhaps Toddh meant the equitorial summer (which is year round). Or, perhaps Toddh really is going to select some gamers and stuff them into one of those nutty private space ships and blast them off to mars.
On another subject...I just had to buy a new graphics card for Thief: DS, but could only afford a 128MB GeForce 5200 FX. It's really not faster than my 64MB GeForce 2 Ultra, except that it's got dual RAMDACs and a pixel shader. Should I trade it back in for something better? Will Doom3 require a better card? I think I can catch a sale on 5700's in the next week or so...
