Is it possible that DOOM 3 could be out today ?

Many GameStop stores in the Southern California area have confirmed that they should be getting their shipments of DOOM 3 on July 31, at least three days ahead of the scheduled Aug. 3 ship date announced by id and Activision (and four days ahead of GameStop original Aug. 4 date).

Where is Flight 77 ?


This would be known as the ‘essence of the problem.’ When the physical aspects of the damage to the Pentagon are compared to what should logically happen when a large, passenger airplane hits a building, they do not reconcile. Simply imposing a graphic of a plane, to scale on the Pentagon, even a half an hour after it hit, is enough to show that it would be quite hard for it not to make more damage to the entry point. Now, when we take the same sense of scale from above and make the attempt to mentally place it in the picture on the following page, any logic that exists should be enough to tell Houston, or wherever, that we’ve got a problem.
