Alledgedly, Blowout is out.
For those that don't recall it being announced a year or two back, it basically looked like it was going to be an updated version of Abuse. The early shots of it looked cool and distinctive, with chunky character models in an id-esque style, robust looking boiler-room style geometry, but most noticably - subdued greyscale textures on everything with only occasional splashes of colour. Unfortunately the look must have been too radical for somebody (probably a marketing drone at a publisher) and in some more screens released later it looked like monster design and colour pallette was heading towards the Serious Sam school of absolute gayness. It was a great disappointment to see this happen. But, it might still be good to play... So, has anyone seen it? Played it? Was it any good? In case anyone was thinking "wtf that's been out ages," yes, I'm aware that it came out in the US ages ago (at least on XBox, not sure about PC), but there is supposedly a UK PC release now, and I don't recall the XBox version ever making it to the UK.
(Also, I just found some of the later batches of screenshots and they were nowhere near as luminous as I remembered them. Still far more coloury than the first lot were though. Don't mind me, I'll just sit here quietly and rock back and forth while dribbling a bit) After a brief look, I have come to the following conclusions:
1) As a fan of sidescroller shooters, that looks like it might be a fun game. 2) I can't find any evidence that it was ever out on the PC in the US. 3) I might just have to buy it for my GameCube. Imagine when games will introduce elastics and similiar mobility (i.e. bendable hollow 'plastic' piping) in games... what might you see in gameplay using such physics?

lsd or dob ? also have u made the music for it aswell? makes me wonder why u make such ugly maps, if u have some art education sry for being so straightforward I had this fuckin wierd dream. I don't remember it all very well, or how it started, but I got to this point...
I was Spiderman or someone Spiderman-esque, and there was only one person who knew my secret identity. After saving some guy from some hazard, I started swinging back by trees to my lair, where I promptly changed into normal clothes. Well, all of a sudden Biff pops out of the TV, this short, fat, bald little goth guy wearing a red Superman-cape with only some hair on the side of his head. He wanted to watch some ridiculous B-Movie horror show, and so he put in the tape and started watching it from the middle where this poor girl had like a pineapple stuck in her throat and her eyes were popping out of her head. So anyway, all of a sudden Biff's dad is sitting on the couch along with him, who's like the EXACT same thing as Biff but older and his hair is a lot whiter, and they're both sitting on the TV completely glued to this horrible horror movie. There's a lot of other stuff, like this vegetarian-anaconda I have that I let wander through the house which I was worried would die because it's cold blooded, so I tried wrapping it up in blankets to keep it warm. There's also this one part about my sister and her boyfriend trying to kill me because I didn't like their dinner or something, I don't remember too well. Anyway, I thought I would mention that Biff is a squat, balding goth super-hero wannabe and his dad is the same thing as him but shorter. The dreams don't lie. MadFox is in your head.
You'll need to flush him out with some Holy Water and a praxinoscope. Do not attempt this by yourself. ^_~ Well, all of a sudden Biff pops out of the TV, this short, fat, bald little goth guy wearing a red Superman-cape with only some hair on the side of his head.
Has actually indicated he looks a little like Drew Carey -- at least according to personal sketches. I can see it.
i recall someone mentioned there's a setting to reduce the mutant owl neck effect when getting hit in d3... but i can't remember what it is... can some one tell me please?
understandably, searching for "reduce mutant own neck in doom 3" didn't yeild many results. :P searching for "reduce mutant own neck in doom 3" didn't yeild many results.
Naturally. That's because you misspelled "owl." I have said plenty of loony things in my day. If that is a definition of courage then call me BraveHeart.
