I played the alpha, but it seriously doesnāt compare to the real thing. I wasnāt that excited about Doom until I played the retail, honestly.

I saw the greatest deal in the paper for Doom 3 yesterday. You buy the $55 Doom 3, and a $50 āgaming mouseā, and you get $10 whole dollars off!!!

For those of you that canāt play Doom3 I highly recommend Unreal2. I just got a gig of ram and am playing it again. Hopefully I will be able to play through the whole thing this time.š But itās a great game. Wish I could play Doom3 thoā¦ā¹

Those chainsaws actually have a funny story. You read in one of the PDAās you pick up that some guy ordered a bunch of jack hammers, but they shipped him chainsaws. It was a complaint email or something. There is some funny crap in this game too. Just kinda dark and strange too.

Ive seen gameplay for Doom3 an amazing game but I have to tell you there in no game scarier than the suffering (ps2). Doom 3 is like resident evil 2 and 3 combine but the suffering is like the whole RE series put together (on a scary scale)

I donāt know man. Iāve beaten the suffering. Itās frightning. But play the first couple levels of DOOM III and come back and tell me what you think. I wasnāt scared of the videos. The immersion is the craziest part. Turn up your sound though. This is some of the best stuff youāll ever HEAR. (not to mention look at)

I was going to hait out for the XBox version because I didnt want to have to shell out a ton of loot for a new video card. (Stupid ATI 9200)
But I am gettting a freeā¦ **yes free** 256MB ATI Radeon 9800 Pro. I am so pumped.
My company makes all kinds of thermal management products and often buy things to test out new materials on. A guy in R+D told me he has one on order to tear down and test and its mine when he is done with it.
thats some good shizzle right there.
Doom 3 here I come.

The game looks like a lot of running backwards while something chases you and lots of turning around to kill the enemies surrounding you.

You should probably put a warning on that link. I clicked on ONE of their screenshots and look what happened:
(P.S. I had no spyware before I clicked the link [Infact I had just reformated my disk] and it took a total of 37 minutes just to load up iexplorer, leave the spyware homepage, get spybot and run the tests. There were 53 processes of spyware running at once, once you end their process they restart.)
I contacted George and that site is now on the Axis of Evil

Do you think the game will run (at a playable speed, like a constant 30 or so fps) with a Mobility Radeon 7500? (With the Radeon 7500 I can get about 90-200 fps (while overclocked in widescreen resolutionā¦ like 1280x861 or something.) on Counter-Strike depending on what map and where I am.

So has anyone played Doom 3? I bought it the first night it came out. But it doesnāt work on my computer for some reason. First thing I figured was not enough ram and sure enough, I needed more ram. So I got more ram put it in and loaded it up, but I still have the same problem. When I load Doom 3, the sound works fine but the screen comes up all white with blue boxes and I canāt seem to figure out why. If anyone has an idea please let me know. Thanks.
