the game is amazing so far. shit my pants twice and I've only made it past the first couple of levels.

Hehe, you guys are funny. It's been exciting working on such a high profile title. Spent about 3 weeks at Id testing, they are a great bunch of guys.

Hope you like the game!

Congrats Steve, I'm not a big gamer but am sure it's a kewl game. I barely made it thru the first level of Medal of Honor. [img]redface.gif[/img] [img]frown.gif[/img]

Man...Pong, PacMan, Frogger, & Donkey Kong are still kickin' my tail..."eh, what's that you say?!"

Three weeks of testing Doom 3...I think that would make me a raving lunatic.

Can't wait for the game...hope it tops UT2k4 Onslaught for thrills...

testing games is no walk in the park, that's for sure. [img]graemlins/sleepy.gif[/img]

Guess who dies in the game? [img]smile.gif[/img]

How is Doom 3 anyway? I am about to shell out some dough for a Radeon 9800 pro and I want to know if it is really as good as it is supposed to be. I am a huge doom and quake fan and I am just wondering if it lives up.

Drumdawg: Have you seen Apex Theory with the trio line up? They are ones of the best new bands out there and I am curious on your opinion on what they sound like now. I am dying to figure out when they are coming to Seattle so my band can open for them.

Hey steve, I remember you saying you worked in the gaming industry, and was thinking 'I'm sure he said he worked for activision'. Anyway, I wondered if the doom 3 hype would hit this forum or not. I've been following it at quake3world for some time. All I need now is loads of ram and a 6800 GT ultra... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Not sure if anyone is interested, but I found an article about doom3 on the net...it was one of the news stories on yahoo.com:

wow. can't believe it's real-time! yikes!! steve, you look really intimidating!

Omni: Drumdawg IS the Apextheory drummer. I've heard the new stuff and it's beyond cool.

Everyone else: The game hits shelves tonight so get em' while they're hot!

Sweet! Hey Steve can you hook up any 'testing copy's' of the game for the board??

hey rudy,

activision is the publisher and ID software is the developer. sorta like EA publishes just about every other console games (it seems like) out on the market. whoa, i'm beginning to feel like i'm on the IGN site!

Yep Da Chuch, I know. Doom3 reminded me that steve works for Activision. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey Steve,
At a doom3 forum, they've made a thread about easter eggs in the game. Someone posted this:

"There's a marine in the first level pointing you to Marine Command, and his name is S.Holmes, that's a guy who worked on the music in the game. I know he's in a band, but I'm unsure, so I'm not going to make a fool of myself."

Now I understand the picture at the top. You're famous!!

right on, rudy. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Err, they're basically a bunch of kids there, so ignore the flame to me, it's all part of those forum's mentality [img]tongue.gif[/img] . I don't know where he got the info about you writing the music and being in a band unless it's part of the doom3 credits? I did make one thread where I mentioned that I knew you and that you were involved with the game.
My nick there is 'DRuM'

Got it and it rocks!!!
Q3DM17 forever.................................

Steve, did you do the voice over for S. Holmes?

I got doom3 now. Lol, on my gforce2 mx200 it ran it at the blisteringly fast speed of.... 6 frames per month!

I've now bought a radeon 9800pro, and topped up my ram to 768mb . It's very playable in 800x600 high quality, but this game is scaring the fuck out of me! [img]eek.gif[/img]
