Ahhh Columbine...they treated Doom like it was a top of the line, mass-selling, murder simulator. But it was in fact one old, out teched, but still classic game. You know what's really sad though. All those kids are dead and it didn't really change anything. The world didn't need them. But it's still an injustice that they died.

I live like 10 minutes away from there...

All the info about these 3 games makes you wonder when the heck they will be out... HL2 looks really far along based on that really sweet long movie. Stalker looks to have all its basics down, nothing about the actual gameplay/story has been shown. Doom... they don't seem to be trying very hard

, since the first info was released, nothing awsomely new and disclosing has followed.

Maybe the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. boys are keeping a lot secret for the sake of the audience's first-time play through. They DID say that "S.T.A.L.K.E.R." DOES have great meaning to the story of the game. AND EIGHT different endings! The funny thing about STALKER, it has the in-depth gameplay the quality of Half-Life AND wayyy better multiplayer features than Halo(Deathmatch, co-operative(UP TO THIRTY-TWO PLAYERS ON COOP!), team, possibly humans Vs. mutants.). BUT not very many people notice it. I'm confused.

What does STALKER stand for?
Hearing that it has 8 endings implys that it will infact have a storyline, and that storyline will be altered based on your actions. (I hope there is something about you being on one side of a conflict, and then having a total apifany and switching sides)
The Coop sounds really really cool.
And plus, just immagioning you running around destroyed biuldings with your comrads killing other stalkers or mutants is really cool too.

The kick ass thing is, you have so many sides to choose from(Besides the military, OF COURSE.). Those anti-mutant guys, the scientists, and just plain clans trying to band together. I wonder if the mutants are not as bad as they seem...

Id's located just across from the Town-East Mall, it's the black, cube-shaped building called Town-East Towers.

Holy shit I go to Town East on a regular basis ,well not regular,just a lot. How could I have not known this ?

Because PC games are rarely in the media spotlight (or any spotlights besides gaming websites). It's there. John Carmack works in that building.

Why would I even want to go there...? It's Doom.

Maybe because they don't have a really big sign saying "Id Software - OMG we make games" and if you tired to enter you'd problemly get kicked out or something.

I don't know if you can get Doom III signed. You'll have to hope and wait till it's released. I know I'm gonna try and get him to sign my copy. I'm also gonna spray-paint the Half-Life Logo on the office doors when Half-Life 2's released.

Nuclear Gandhi · Post by **Nuclear Gandhi** » Fri Aug 29, 2003 2:14 am

Probably. It's not you can just go to the front desk and be like "Give me a signed copy of Doom 3, NOW."

This is Texas.

Texans have guns.

Guns=Don't fuck with Doom's headquarters.
