IT'S DONE!!!!!!!
Yes, this is the official word that DOOM 3 has been code released and has been approved for manufacturing!
It won't be long now until the anticipation ends and the PH34R begins  We literally just hung up with
Activision and have confirmed that our latest release candidate has been mutually approved and is finally
GOLD. Thanks to everyone for their patience (yeah right! =) and for everyone at id, Activision and our
numerous partners for helping us create what I believe is absolutely the best game we have ever made.
So, the next question is release dates. Retailers in the States will be allowed to pick up games starting
at 12:01 AM on August 3rd. The official street date is actually August 5th in the U.S.A., but some of
your favorite stores will probably have it early for those of you who have to have it first. Check with
your local retailer for that information.
Internationally, the game will take a few more days to make it to the store shelves. The UK will probably get it first, on or about August 6th. Everywhere else will probably be Friday, August 13th (que Twilight Zone Theme) or close to that date, with just a few exceptions (e.g. Russia and Poland). This isn't
because we don't have love for you folks outside the U.S., but the localization and manufacturing process
takes a bit longer outside the U.S. where we will have JVC run 24/7 to get the units built. I guess the
European manufacturers prefer to give their employees nights and weekends off. Go figure!
The champagne is flowing here at id and smiles abound!
I'll update again with some DOOM 3 preparation tips (not what hardware to buy - you'll have to wait for
a programmer for that sort of thing). In the meantime, I want to see those "DOOM 3 GOLD!!!" threads set
new records for swamping message board servers, destroying productivity, and post counts
|
Recapping today's headlines....DOOM 3 GOLD!!!

I'll take the UK date with a pinch of salt though since most UK retailers are listing it as the 13th. Hopefully I'm just being pessimistic they'll update soon and say the 6th instead  (the 6th would fit because games are always released on Fridays in the UK). |

matt, there are plenty of unix-based IRC clients.
For an X IRC client, try here:
http://www.xchat.org/
Or if you want a console-based IRC client, try here:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/bitchx/
Install one of these and then go to this server:
irc.gamesnet.net
(or type /server irc.gamesnet.net in the command/msg line)
Once connected, type this:
/join #doom3world
Say hi to BNA, myself and a few others.
