Yes, we must keep Sigma Team in line. Just imagine, zombie birds, and skeletal squirrels, you know, with the bones that squirrels do have. Stupid squirrels.

My game arrived by UPS at 12:04 PM Pacific Standard Time.

I am glad that I was able to recieve the game before I had to go to work, otherwise it would have been held captive in the apartment office for another day.

You bastards are farther than I am... I'm at the first sighting of the upsidedown headed spiders.

***Don't read unless you're McNevin or Choki***

That was kooky. I'm crawling through the ducts, and then I hear: ticka ticka ticka ticka, and see a many-legged shadow run by. At least they allowed me to get out of the crawl-space before attacking me.... Bleh, little bastards. They are running around all over outside where I'm trying to find oxygen right now.

Those bastards swarmed me when i got out of the crawlspace. How much further are you than the crawlspace?

I think I just got out of the Keith Courage Alpha Zone.... But then I got stuck in the part of the game where you have to leave the house and go to work for 7 or so hours... It's not quite as cool as the other parts...

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 1:49 pm

Quite a bit, because I've got plasma, and the chaingun is before that.

I hate that level, the one where you have to get in the car and wait in traffic for an hour, then do work for hours.

Yeah, the car part wasn't that fun but I do like the part where you hit all the zombies at the office with a table leg. I thought it was a nice touch that the zombies try to convince you that they aren't zombies. It didn't fool me though...

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 4:37 pm

Thats hillarious...

Listen zombie, youre just in denial... now eat chairleg!

Has anyone else gotten to the part where you make friends with the zombies and they all bring you Haw flakes for a picnic out on the martian surface?

Something funnier I have not seen. Well done! I'm showing everyone!

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 6:28 pm

How funny, excelent work!

What shall we name our clan? What was it before? (o.o)

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 6:47 pm

We could be Shodan's Secret Service

"Make yourself comfortable Hacker. Stay a little while"

[SSS] Like that? I kinda thought it should involve monkey somthing...

There is a battlefield server with everyone having a monkey name.

Bloodmonkey, fragmonkey, ironmonkey, pilotmonkey, tankmonkey.. etc.

I thought that was creative!

"Make yourself comfortable Hacker. Stay a little while"

Kind of a cross between the MCP, Shodan, and the guy from Impossible Mission.

BTW, I can now officially say I have played Doom 3. Count me as one of the damned.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Fri Aug 06, 2004 9:20 am

Excellent work 3nder. Did you play it on a good system? I've got settings in my head that will make it fly on your system, so let me know when you'll be setting it up.

Post by **enderzero** » Fri Aug 06, 2004 7:47 pm

Yes it is also now in my possession and will be set up immediately on my return to the occident. I only played for a few minutes on a save game a tiny ways in as I didn't want to ruin my cinematic experience.

Anyone beat it yet? Whats the time to completion like? Less than HL I hope. I like a good long game as much as the next crackhead, but I swear I played through HL for 50 hours and only got 20-30% into it.

Speaking of... HL2 who? Is anyone still talking about this? What a PR disaster that has been.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Fri Aug 06, 2004 8:16 pm

I'll get excited when it's gold

Any updates on Teamfortress 2? Last I heard, they switched to the unreal engine. That should make for a good looking game!

Youre a funny guy!

Ducttape your flashlight to your gun, in doom3. As seen on hardocp.

well I finally finished it....

sweet jeebus.... that game scared the shiat out of me more than any other game has. Definitely enjoyed playing through... but I also wanted to get it over with... Playing Doom for extended periods of time requires some serious decompression... like... watching some Matthew's best hit tv while eating cotton candy.

Goemon · Post by **Goemon** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 6:48 pm

Matthew's Best Hit TV cures whatever ails ya.

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Tue Aug 24, 2004 8:26 am

The game really doesn't scare me under normal circumstances. (System Shock 2 did though.) Now, if I play at night, with headphones, and a healthy dose of DoomAid TM, then I'm jumpier than a McNevin playing Quake 1 for the first time.

(DoomAid TM is green by the way.)

mistasparkle* · Post by mistasparkle* » Tue Aug 24, 2004 10:03 am

I tried playing a bit with speakers, but it's not the same experience... Headphones give you that full immersion...

more than anything else....it was the sound that creeped me out.

p.s. I wouldnt dare attempt playing with DoomAid TM

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Tue Aug 24, 2004 10:32 am

Yeah, I've found myself firing off shots into the darkness quite a bit when DoomAid TM is involved. I call it "Speculative Firing"

McNevin · Post by **McNevin** » Tue Aug 24, 2004 10:58 am

Too much doom aid?

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Tue Aug 24, 2004 1:31 pm

I clicked it, but only got sound. What I heard, I did not like. Bleh. DoomAid TM, no. DorkAid TM, yes. (Stopped listening after about 10 seconds.) Never use DorkAid TM while playing Doom 3. (You can hear the results by clicking the link you provided.) You might be able to get away with QuakeAid TM while playing Doom 3, simply because they are basically the same thing, but DorkAid TM is completely different. Now where's my J3RKAid TM, I'm gonna get tore up!
