Oooh! Looks like it will be in the stores August 5th. Now I wonder if
my old machine can come close to running it. (sigh)

If your system can handle the "Farcry"
demo that you can download, I guess it
could probably handle Doom3 (This is
only a guess)

Whoaa. Hold the phone. Demo? I've seen the trailers, the screen
shots, but never a demo. Proving once again that I just fell off the
turnip truck. Where can a feller get a hold of this here demo?

The final game has to be a lot more
optimized than the leaked demo.

The demo I mentioned was of "Farcry", which
is not an ID software game but is hardware
demanding. That demo you can download from
many game sites. I don't know where you can
get the Doom3 test beta that was leaked last
year.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just assuming that my system that handles
Unreal Tournament 2004 pretty well will handle D3. Athalon XP 2800, Geforce
4 Ti4800 se, 1 gig. RAM.

the doom3 demo is not out yet. It will not be out until well after the full
game ships.

It should run it, the question is, how well? And how many details will need
to be turned off?

It was, to be technical, an alpha test and never meant for public
consumption.
If you do a search on google youll find articles about it.
Sounds like something I can live without.

Anyway Im shocked because they had said it would be out in December
so thats nice they are more or less done with it. I think Ill get it
after they have patched it about a billion times. ;-P
If my system runs it that is. I think I can upgrade the cpu and vid card.

My system is only an 1800+. I'm sure yours will run the game, but
probably only if you set resolution and everything really low.

I don't know what generation a 9200 is, but I'd recommend at least
doubling your RAM.

There will be a Doom 3 demo though, won't there?

It should be released soon, so they can get the patch out as soon as
the game is released. (Do you really think otherwise?)

Seriously?

Everyone else releases the demo first, so they can find the bugs and
get a patch out on the day the game is released.

Also, if the demo doesn't play, people won't have to spend they're
money on the game until they can afford to upgrade.

seriously, id wanted to concentrate on the full game first and foremost.
Now that the game has gone gold, they will now devote time to getting the
demo ready.
