Topic	Anyone remember the Doom 3 vs. Half Life 2 debate from 2004?

After the leak released and ran like chunky butt butter, Valve had to retriple their efforts for release. Doom 3 could scale lower (looking dreadful) after people learned to hack it and disable the flashy effects, but it was designed to cook all that fancy logic Nvidia and ATi had been stuffing into their chips. <cite>Red_Frog posted [p:954728127] in Anyone rem...
