PC if they ever get it done it has been in the works for about 6 or 7 years now. And yes wolfenstien was what really got computer gaming going but I meant I started with the original doom I got wolfenstien after doom from a buddy of mine he gets the credit for hooking me on computers. I started out with windows 3.1 and dos I have only bought one computer since I have been in to them and that was my first one after that I started building them that way I get it set up the way I want it for gaming no on board junk. It also use to be cheaper to build your own now they make computers cheap but out of cheap parts to.
Edit: One of the biggest reasons for the delay was they started making the game with the unreal engine and when the new quake engine started to come out they scraped every thing and started over with it.

Rainbow 6 Las Vegas, GRAW2, Halo3...I enjoy a sniping role. My sons and I play online most of the time...which is nice, but there are also quite a few jerks with really foul mouths online.
The boys now have Guitar Hero 3 since christmas...and honestly I'm sick of hearing most of the songs over and over and over...not to mention this is about the first day I've been able to sit down and watch my HD big screen and enjoy my surround system.

no offence but im suprised there are so many people into trucks and gaming...i dunno why but it just seems like they are two completely different interests.
Im with all of you guys though. I built my first computer myself 2 years ago and since then ive been hooked. I am really into gaming and the hardware side of computers. I try to stay up to date with the new hardware and am currently trying to build a new computer but my truck is sucking up all my money.
This world nowadays is so into stereotypes that everybody that meets me and later finds out how much of a nerd i really am is really suprised. On the outside im a greasy gearhead covered in tattoos. But then you come into my house and ive got the big tv....big surround sound system. And the modded computer that plays all the new games beautifully. Then you step into my garage and ive got a truck thats in year 4 of a frame off restoration and then theres the big diesel that im always putting money into.

My kids got me hooked on Halo 2 and we still do that once in a while. My 19 yr-old daughter and I play it on-line when she's home from college. Just brought her back today and kinda miss her already. Other than that, Euchre and Cribbage on-line when I have time.

Also does anyone know how to add your own songs to guitar hero? I have guitar hero 2 for PS2 and guitar hero 3 for XBOX 360, I hear the PS2 is easier to do...

From Wiki:
Wolfenstein 3D (originally Wolfenstein 3-D, commonly abbreviated to Wolf 3D) is a video game that is generally regarded as having popularized the first person shooter genre on the PC. It was created by id Software and published by Apogee Software. Released on May 5, 1992 for DOS, the game was inspired by the 1980s Muse Software computer games Castle Wolfenstein and Beyond Castle Wolfenstein. It has been ported to a wide variety of systems, including 3DO, Super NES, Game Boy Advance, Acorn Archimedes, Atari Jaguar, and the Apple II<small>GS</small>.
I can't believe it's been that long already. Looking back, a bunch of us used to play Quake then later Unreal at work during lunch (yeah right
) over the network. That was until the NW guys started seeing the crazy packets hogging resources. We ended up with a few PCs in our office plugged into a switch that got unplugged from the rest of the NW during our "Tournaments".
