Doom deservedly gets a 5/10 in Xbox Nation

Note also: I haven't spent money on an id product since Quake 2.

Just as I suspected, a game pirate that hangs out all day on IRC.  Bet you live home with your parents too? :-)

Let's tone it down in this thread a bit.  I can guarantee that kathode isn't a game pirate and doesn't live at home with his parents, so let's not go down that road.

If things keep traveling down this road I will lock this thread.

hahaha, me a pirate  

I never played more Q3 then the demo.  Never even bothered with the Team Arena demo.  That type of game has never appealed to me (at least until UT2k4).  I even tried 2k3 but didn't like it.  Traded it fast.
Damn I wish I lived in my parent's basement.  It'd be a helluva lot cheaper...

None of this changes the fact that Doom3 looks likely to rock your socks.  I've yet to see a preview that's down on it (psychic paragraphs excepted), and even given the fact that previews are rarely negative, there certainly have been a LOT.  

If things keep traveling down this road I will lock this thread.

I get no points for linking the CG preview to "reputable"?

Kathode is a respected game developer, a friend of mine, does not live at home, and is not a pirate. Chill the fuck out and relax DD. Your arguments are weak, based on completely faulty logic (psychic prediction in stupid magazine does not equal reputable preview), and apparently have ZERO first-hand knowledge of how DoomIII will play or what it looks like.

This is just silly. If you are trying to bait people, congratulations. If you are serious, well, you might want to pretend you are just joking.

wrong, he helped make Morrowind.  Please bash him for that

No offense Kathode

[DiamondDecision]

Your arguments are weak,

Quoting a reputable magazine's opinion is weak?  Now your logic is faulty.

based on completely faulty logic (psychic prediction in stupid magazine does not equal reputable preview),

How is Xbox Nation not reputable?  Again, your logic is faulty.

and apparently have ZERO first-hand knowledge of how DoomIII will play or what it looks like.

This comment is just outright ridiculous.  You have no idea what this person knows.  Can you prove that?  Again, your logic is faulty.

This is just silly. If you are trying to bait people, congratulations. If you are serious, well, you might want to pretend you are just joking.

Rage, you're well named.  Just trying to keep you in line.

REALLY?!  I like Morrowind.  Kathode rulez!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, Morrowind is one of the crown jewels of RPG games.  It's games like that that have really opened up new frontiers in gaming.

The 3 things you could do in life that you would be most proud of:
- Cure for cancer.
- Negotiating world peace.
- Working on Morrowind.

DD, why did you just quote yourself like that?  There is an "edit" button, you know.

Now for my very own PSYCHIC PREDICTION!

It will sell a lot of copies.  Reviews will be mixed, though mostly positive.  The bad: no story.  The good: graphics.  The co-op play will make Halo fans happy.  Anothe solid FPS on the Xbox.  I haven't played Doom III on the Xbox, and chances are neither have you.

This thread is breaking new ground in idiocy.

And why isn't it in "Road to Gold"?

Brilliant idea...don't know why I didn't think of it.

In the real world that kind of shit deserves an apology.

They finally posted the story. Enjoy it for what it is...

I can't believe this is the kind of crap that caused such a stink.  So much time, energy, and mud-slinging over a prediction.  The bad thing is that they are all pretty thin jokes, seemingly written with the sole purpose of pissing on the fanboy parade.  For shame.
