because of Warcraft and Diablo..especially Diablo, I had to buy a new mouse as the buttons wore out !
Fun fact- I hate starcraft

I love Diablo and WoW series, but not a fan of their RTS games. I prefer Westwood Studios' C&C and Dune series. However, old Battle.net was awesome.


Exact opposite for me. Diablo 1 and 2 had great setting/story, and were fun the first time through, but the gameplay was a mindless clickfest. WOW was great with friends, but the endgame is an endless gear treadmill. Starcraft and e-sports are Blizzard's greatest achievement in gaming IMO.

This would be great to know.>> ^EmptyFriend:

The "All your history are belong to us" series are great. Many great insights into the game development world. Love it.


Ditto. See http://www.gdcvault.com/free/gdc-11 for GDC ones.

Resurrection of Evil was worth a playthrough. It introduced a variant of the gravity gun and also "bullet time" slow-down powers... so it incorporated or appropriated one of the signature elements from each of Half-Life 2 and F.E.A.R. which were released within a year of the original DOOM 3. I had a lot more free time back then, hehe.

"Doom 3 was a shallow game"
As opposed to the abyssal depths of the first two DOOM games?
I thought DOOM 3 was amazing and wouldn't have wanted any more depth from it. Maybe a couple less "monster closets" in the first 2/3 of the game. And yeah some large waves of enemies would be cool.

Yeah, it wasn't bad but not good as the first two. I didn't play its official addon though due to lack of time.



Yeah, I would have played it if I had free time. I barely play any games these days except Flash ones. The only things I don't like DOOM games are the hell levels. I never care for those. I like those base levels. Earth levels are OK.

Carmack has answered several emails of mine asking about various uses for his rocket systems. It trips me out to get a response from him since he's THE CARMACK !!!!!


Nice! What did you and he say?

I love these so much. I hope Machinima do a lot more of them!


Ditto. They are on season 3: http://www.youtube.com/show/allyourhistory?s=3 ... I watched many!

Rage doesn't look that good to me. I hope I am wrong!



Yeah I guess we'll have to wait and see. I like the setting even though recently it's getting a tad overused, though Borderlands was really mind-numbing in my opinion. I saw a video of the AI in RAGE and it looked pretty neat.

It's funny, most of the AI in games these days are shit. I feel like the AI in the original Thief is light-years beyond a lot of the garbage out there right now. Maybe it's been that too many games rely on the Unreal engine and pre-fab AI - I don't know. Because even in games that should have killer AI like Splinter Cell: Conviction the AI isn't all that interesting.

Am I the only one who finds it really challenging to navigate this series on Youtube?
EDIT: nevermind this makes it a lot easier. How come I can't find this for other playlists:

Yeah, it's a pain in the ass, but it's got some awesome stuff there.

All Your History is pretty cool.
