Doomed Videos and other stories

Monday · 9 Aug 04 · 11:18 AM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: Doom

I've recently succeeded in downloading hundreds of megabytes of Doom 3 and other game-related videos (the latter primarily from the media pages of the Internet Archive - search for "Doom" or "Quake" and you'll get the videos list).  I've got all of them written on CD also.

My graphics card (a PCI 8 MB one) will arrive today or tomorrow.  I can't wait to get it because I haven't been able to use my computer at all for the past couple of days!  I watched the Doom 3 Icons (History of Doom) video and the Doom 3 Trailer on Kamal's computer though.  The trailer was absolutely amazing!  All the Doom 3 related media coming out nowadays seem much more impressive to me than the early screenshots/videos.

On Saturday night, I watched a Tamil movie called Kakha Kakha, and that was really great.  I have about a half hour now to update my Movies List with that and some other movies before going to class.

Our schedule for the Mid Term Examinations was just sent about an hour ago.  I'm looking at it now and I'm very happy to see that I have just one exam - that is Ethics on 12th, from 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM!  The elective courses I have taken don't have Mid Terms...

And finally another announcement: I bought a green gel pen yesterday.  For those of you who don't know about this, I carry pens of three colours (red, black, blue) with me every day - and I use all these colours to write notes and to do drawings in my notebook.  With the addition of green, my book is now going to be (I think so anyway...) the most colourful and attractive notebook in all of TAPMI.

Dark Fate 2 is a singleplayer level for Doom II, replacing MAP01.  It's a small-sized hellish level — and there's a walkthrough video as well.
