Look at the bright side - in Canada, it's rated "E" for everyone.

But if you are using a GeForce 4 MX the games shouldn't run. You'd definatly want something better than that though even if they did.

I was at Frys yesterday and Saw "Doom 3" checked the price it said "19.99" I was like what the f.... Looked Closer it was "Doom, with original Doom 3 footage". Whoever thought of that marketing scheme is going places.
This sort of stuff always reminds me of Bill Hicks "If you're in Marketing, kill yourself. There's no punchilne just kill yourself."
Don't make me derail this in a discussion about the difference between not having freedom of speech and youth protection. Heaven knows I don't like the indiction system, but calling it censorship is just over the top.

but ontopic, i believe wolfenstein was actually quite enlightening to me. from wolfenstein i learned about hitlers crazy schemes that obviously wouldnt work. bring back the dead and such. if i recall correctly he actually did try that. he also tryed to use the thery that the earth was hollow and we are on the <u>inside</u> and pointed telescopes up into the sky hoping to see the british navy or something.
Erm... No. Most definetely <i>not</i>. Hitler was, aside from his less-than-semi-coherent race theory, a pretty straightforward rationalistic atheist (despite the christian rethoric he liked to use in his speeches). As far as I'm aware, and I feel can claim at least comparably throughout knowledge of the Third Reich, he never tried anything of what you described. It's true that Himmler had a slight knack for occult bogus, but nothing faintly comparable to what you mentioned, either.
Now that the wolfenstein thing is solved, let's celebrate again! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Just read the PC Gamer US review, sounds good but it seems one puzzle requires the player to access an external URL to solve it. Now, what about those who stick soley to single-player and don't have access to the internet? Seems <i>slightly</i> daft to me.
Besides, that's not crucial, it's just a little something on the side for all the Doom III players with too much time on their hands, which is probably the case for people with the computers required to run it in its full glory.
