ROFL. Skippy, if she's really the woman of your dreams you wouldn't have had the time to post 3400+ times in 6 months and you damn well would not be so excited about a video game nor would you be so versed in every spec. It's likely the woman "in your dreams". Seriously, a job, a car, a fiance (and I notice you list the car above the fiance) and you have the time for 20 posts a day and an unhealthy video game fetish. Thanks, your little imaginary reality has amused me.
Dude, all you have to do is look at his PICS in his SIG.
Not everybody who's a regular in this forum is a loser who can't get girls and sit at home all day.
Looks like a normal guy to me.
Maybe his work is in computer and he sits infront of one 8hrs a day and have time to post.

damn, i missed out on that.
Looks like there wont be DVD version. From CNN Money
The game will ship on either three or four CDs. Despite the hopes of hard-core gamers, though, there will not be a DVD version of the game, id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead told CNN/Money.
"There's just not a compelling reason," he said, taking a break from a company celebration.
"I know some gamers are hoping to use the DVD players on their machines for something other than watching movies, but there are downsides," he said. "For us the cost of the goods and the cost of the replication and having to make two masters just isn't worth it."

Thanks CTrain.
ROFL. Hey Gaghalfrunt (WTF kind of nick is that, anyways). Just so you know, I'm a Network Technician. I working in the IT industry (10 hour days for one of the biggest corporations in the world), so you've picked the wrong fight. Oh, and about my fiancee.
Why don't you go here. (2nd post down)
Any idea if they are going to have a playable Demo (besides the leaked version) before the full release? I would like to see how it runs on my system and see if I really like it before I buy it.
btw D3 MP will be the normal cleint-server, not P2P like was thought.

edit: and yeah I think/AFAIK it's still only 4-player deathmatch, though id did also say mods etc would be able to increase this (so presuambly it's a delberate choice by game design, not limitation of game code).

Gaghalfrunt, stfu and go away troll. I don't post much in ATOT but people like you make me sick. I am also a pc fanatic but guess what I have an awesome GF(2 1/2 years), nice vehicle, a GREAT job for my age and am going to college full time. I play games everyday but still continue to have a very satisfying life.
please lose the bullsh!t "your a gamer/ATOT member/etc, your a loser you have no life" attitude.
How about you get a life instead of trying to flame people for having a "little imaginary reality" when infact they have much better of a life than you ever dreamed of.
gg k thx
edit1- and warcrow is a very cool guy so back the fvck up biiiiiotccchhh

We should feel excited about it.
You kind of have it in reverse. People satisfied with their lives or are in good moods should feel as much excitement as they want to about something simple. If you have a life that enables you sit down in front of an expensive computer to play a game, hell I'd say you have it made.
On the other hand, one who is cynical, depressed, and maybe even close to suicide will likely not care much about the game.

7/15 UPDATE! - ABOUT THE DEMO AND MAC/LINUX RELEASES

A few bottles of champagne later (so excuse the typos)....
First of all, thank you to everyone who sent congratulatory notes on the GOLD announcement. I speak for
everyone at id when I say I wish I could respond to everyone personally, but hopefully this general note
can convey how much we sincerely appreciate the sentiment from everyone out there waiting for the game.
A few people have reminded me of some details omitted from my initial update:
Mac and Linux: Unfortunately I don't have dates for either of these. However, Linux binaries will be
available very soon after the PC game hits store shelves. There are no plans for boxed Linux games.
More remains to be done for the OSX version of DOOM 3 and that will take some time. We won't release
the OSX version until it's just as polished as the PC version. The date for OSX DOOM 3 remains "when it's
done", but I can confirm that it's definitely coming.
Demo: our priority was finishing the game first and now we are turning our attention to the demo. I
don't have any information to share regarding any specific content, but I don't believe that we have
ever disappointed in that regard in the past. We will release the demo as soon as it's done, but this
probably won't happen until after the game has arrived on U.S. store shelves.
Last, but not least, the id Store: we will have copies of DOOM 3 available, but only after we get them.
I'm sure that some of the hardcore game retailers will get them even before we do. Check our website for
updates on this. We certainly appreciate everyone who has helped to make the id Store a huge success this
year. By the way, more DOOM 3 T-Shirts just arrived, so those popular items are back in stock and will be
available this week.
I understand that people have lots and lots of questions. We're working on pulling together some form of
an official FAQ, but even though we're done we still have several responsibilities that are urgent as the
game heads for retail. Please bear with us on this.
I know I owe you those preparation tips, but they will have to wait until tomorrow.
