sucks. :p

You idiots just made me go out and buy the game just to see it run on my 6800GT. I don't even PLAY FPSes for christ's sake. But I picked up UT2004 on DVD, X2 "The Threat", Perimeter, Track Mania, The Republic, and the expansion pack for Warcraft 3 (and I'm not quite sure why I bought that... I hate Starcraft, I hate Warcraft 3... I swore I'd never buy another Blizzard product... I think I figured that since I have WC3, I might as well pick up the expansion pack for $20 or whatever it was).

And yes, I'll be sure to post screenies of Doom 3 :D

I thought UT2004 was lame, but I loved Doom 3.

WC3 and its expansion are good, but multiplayer SUCKS! Heros should NEVER have been put in multiplayer.

hmm. On Doom 3:
well gee, that intro screen puts the sub in the z-680s to good use... *sticks finger in ear, digs around, hits side of head*

Also, who was the numbnuts that decided to not put this damn thing on DVD?

not so much the install time as the hassle of swapping CDs that bugs me. :-/

Dude, what is that like $200 in games today? :rolleyes:

You've just got a hole burning in your pocket, don't you :grumble:

$250 actually.

And Doom 3 is capped at 60fps isn't it? I've got it maxed out (1600x1200, highest detail settings) and I'm getting 60fps. :D

I like Doom 3, I think it's starting to get alittle repetive tho, i'm almost done with the game and I'm pretty sure I wont wanna play single player for a long time. Don't get me wrong, I love it and it's fun to play, but after awhile it seems like the same old stuff over and over. And I'm already outta hell and just entering the CPU area.

Keep it up, mondi - this is the ultimate pwnage that Geeky needs to deflate his ego to the level of an ordinary man!

I was kidding... hence the smilies in those posts...

What [H] benchmarks?

Of course not. You're just taking me entirely too seriously. ;D

I wasn't whining about not having any money... link??

:p

dude, where do you get this money? we're forgetting the 4 grand he spent on the lappy btw..

I didn't spend anything on the laptop. It was one of the birthday presents I got from my grandparents. As for the money for the cards and stuff... I have a job during the summer. :D

Yeah. THAT'S likely to happen. :p ;) ;D

Geeky1,

Your'e always complaining about something but I still enjoy reading your stuff... I just think sometimes you're too cynical for someone so young (example: college orientation - what a rant!)

I could see how some might perceive you as a whiny, spoiled, rich kid... Me? I'm perceived as a Goth superstar with my own suicide web site OR was that someone else?

No disrespect intended... Just my observation and two cents.... Flame away, I probably deserve it.

Heh. That's because you're taking me too seriously. I don't honestly believe that you guys made me go buy Doom 3. It's just more funny to say that then it is to say "well, i decided to buy doom 3..."

And yeah, I can see how people could think that I'm a whiny, spoiled, rich kid, but those people are taking me entirely too seriously. :)
