    Jeeez. I just logged on to post something, but spent so long deleting comment spam that I forgot what it was that I wanted to post. Great.

    You think I’m going to write a review? There’s no need. This is a required purchase. Guess why I didn’t post yesterday.

    OK. That last post was a little thin. Let’s summarise this obsession with this game and its genre while I’m sat on the train, on my way home, a pre-Doom III person.

    Wow, Jack’s reading classic development texts already. Well, OK, he caught me reading it and just liked the numbers on the chapter pages. But still.

    Aaargh! Zombies! Or rather, no zombies! Aaargh! Amazon have got a ship date of August 15th for my copy of Doom III, which would mean I wouldn’t get it for almost a week. In case you haven’t been paying attention (tshk), Doom III is supposed to be available in the UK on the 13th, already…
