It's gold!

I'm sitting here, installing six copies of XP to make our LAN systems run nice again, and I pull up /. like the loyal geek I am. What do I find awaiting me? Doom3... gold... August 5th. My shorts must be changed now.

I've been waiting for the last four years for this game to drop, and it's finally here. EB has it listed at $50, which stinks considering a lot of really great new games have been hitting in at $40. What ya gonna do?

I've got my fingers crossed for bot support because I don't think I'm gonna get many takers at our bi-monthly LAN (it's all about mass players, vehicles, and objectives with the kids these days). Either way, the single player should be interesting. I've not gotten my hopes up too much because I know id's track record with stories and engaging gameplay. It's mostly about the graphics, physics, and memories of a day gone by when gaming was about getting your shit schooled by zombies and demons. It also means Half-Life 2 is just around the corner...
