Doom III is out there! W00T!

[IRCRomeo]

I call BS on you, sir.

Sorry, but I'm right. I called five Best Buys, some not even in my state. They got a corporate e-mail to pull it from shelves.

id post a ss but i doubt mods would like this, the file is called something like doom3 bleh bleh all the warez groups then it says UNCRACKED and i talked to a few people and they say this portection scheme is unlike no other and they have had it for about a week but havent managed anything. ID might be onto something here.

Really, thats kind of strange. Read my previous posts. I'll take the word of sales managers in stores over "i called 5 best buys".

[Laughing-Man]

I went to two Best Buys in my area and there were none on the shelves either. Oh well I will try again on Thursday.

Ive called all the Best Buys and EB Games around my location, and none of them have it on the shelf. The EB game stores I called told me they have not even got the shipment in. They said by monday they should have it.

You're right. I'm buying the game, but I'm still interested to see how long it takes for people to get around every new method released.

Even if this game is playable tomorrow, Id is still going to roll in the cash. Most people don't even know about bittorrent, let alone IRC or Usenet.

Can't wait for it to be officially released ;)

Well you call my Best Buys and tell their store manager to sell it. I called my two local ones AT LEAST five times each today arguing they must sell it as it has no street date. I even know the manager personally and was told they cannot sell it, or they will get a $5,000 fine per game.

does anyone know how many cds this game is? or is it on a dvd?

[Dazog]

this is SD 3.22

easliy crackable

my guess is the rls groups will take there time

why rush it

also more people will buy it if there ain't no cracked copy for a week past retail :huh:

[kak]

If its a full DVD, it'll weigh in around 6 CDs then. They'll probably release both formats, I wouldn't see why not.

[episode]

Its 3 discs ...

[stpark6985]

ok thank you, 3 discs isn't so bad

Do you guys jsut not read the 60 pages of pure content that this thread has?

Belive me. It's not spam :rolleyes:

[kak]

55 of it probably isn't relevant either.

#1 The $5,000 per game is a line. Typical Best Buy bull****. The TAO that best buy corporate sent out said simply "make sure you hold back enough copies to cover the preorders".

However, best buy has no system for tracking preorders, so most of the stores in turn pulled everything. You will still find a lot that didn't pull them though.

agreed, there are alot of screens and tech info for problems that arise (i had them) ( i think i solved them ) (we shall see)

I was thinking the same thing too because it would be unfair to other stores who are waiting for the actual release date. If Best Buy was selling Doom 3 early then that would be less business for other companies.

I'm in NE PA. I only have two BBs around me, and neither will budge. Any suggestion?

If people want to try to buy it early, there is no reason for you to pipe in and stop them. Who do you think you are, their parent? ****

[ForeverUnknown]
