Its Doom 3, not Doom cubed, first off... but I know you already know that and no, not many of those games are out yet  And I know how lightguns work, at least the NES ones. I assumed the rest were the same. |

Look -- WILL! -- the name of the game is written like this:  With the three VISBALLY raised from the rest of the title. I went with Doom cubed when I said it, however, if I was going to be literal, then for the doom to be cubed it would have to be written like this: (DOOM)^3 However, it is written: DOOM^3 which means, when expanded using basic rules of algebra this is acctually: DOOMMM So me saying "Doom cubed" is really more than it deserves, because it really deserves doommm. so THERE!! Dont mess with me about math dude! I know what I'm talking about! ((LoL I know its doom three -- I just cant believe you pointed it out as if I didnt know)) |

wow, thats some of the stupidest crap I've ever heard...
And yea, a lot of the light guns work like the Nintendo Zapper. I'm not quite sure about the more newer ones that you find in arcades like the one for Virtua Cop 3 or Crisis Zone. Or maybe they're so advanced that they've made it so that you can't tell that they're using the same methods as the classic Nintendo Zapper...
So anyway, I guess I'll post that ET Point later

BUt if they were using math to name the game why DOOM? Wouldn't it be DO^2M? And DOOMMM DO^2M^3? This could get interesting. . .

Back on topic, (DO2M)3 does look like a good game... although, just like HL2, my computer will never, ever run it. Hell, it can't even run C&C Renegade. Its just not an FPS machine...
...actually...
WE JUST GOT A NEW COMPUTER!! WOOOOOOHOOOOOO
And, it's got a GEFORCE 4! Not the best, but it can run any game that is out right now without any slowdown at all.
And, for our other computer, we also bought a Geforce fx 5200. My computer right now has a Geforce FX 2400, so its an upgrade.
Joe is taking the very new computer, although we are getting his old one (which is still capable of play almost any game flawlessly, expecially compared to ours). Which means... LAN!! WooT!
