    Cool Doom III release dates! Finally!

    Well guys, you've been waiting ages, and the word from id has always been "when it's done," but now there's some actual dates set. This info is taken from Todd Hollenshead's .plan at Shacknews:
    Quote Originally Posted by Todd Hollenshead
    Retailers in the States will be allowed to pick up games starting at 12:01 AM on August 3rd. The official street date is actually August 5th in the U.S.A., but some of your favorite stores will probably have it early for those of you who have to have it first. Check with your local retailer for that information.

    Internationally, the game will take a few more days to make it to the store shelves. The UK will probably get it first, on or about August 6th. Everywhere else will probably be Friday, August 13th (que Twilight Zone Theme) or close to that date, with just a few exceptions (e.g. Russia and Poland). This isn't because we don't have love for you folks outside the U.S., but the localization and manufacturing process takes a bit longer outside the U.S. where we will have JVC run 24/7 to get the units built. I guess the European manufacturers prefer to give their employees nights and weekends off. Go figure!
    Full details here.

    So guys, are you ready?

    Well I've never been a huge Doom fan but I'm interested to see if this game turns out to be worth the wait.

    If you listen really carefully you can actually hear Gabe Newell running around like a madman trying to get it ready...
