    Doom III

    From Tom's Hardware DOOM III Review

    . . .In general, some of the features of Doom III are dynamic shadows, per polygon hit detection, multi dynamic light source, and a new physics engine. The new physics engine can be applied not just to the characters in the game, but to the objects in the game as well. So, for example, you could kick a box on the floor into the air and you get the realistic effect of the box falling to the ground. This physics engine was pretty impressive and something that adds a new dimension to Doom III.

    In the one player mode, the Doom III game is very mission and story driven. You will be able not only to activate computer consoles in the game, but, for the first time, to interact with them with HTML-style screens on the computer that will allow you to click on them. . . .

    . . .
    . . .Doom III offers a real time preview tool, so when building levels, for example, they can be rendered and previewed in real time. Doom III also offers shader animation and texture lighting tools as well. With Doom III, it is possible to alter and change the light source.. . .


    This game is going to be so cool. I can hardly wait for it's release. .

    Games like this is the reason I am in the process of building my new P4 system - which I should finish this weekend. (Except for the speakers) Will post the specs when completed.

    Will it have the BFG9000?
    That's the worst looking hat I ever saw. You buy a hat like that I bet you get a free bowl of soup. It looks good on you though.
