My head's spinning like a dreidel in a sandstorm....

Hello everyone. Yeah, who would've thought I'd be back making a new topic after all the mess I've been through, eh?

But this is kinda unique, so here goes:

It just hit me not long ago as to just how many things involving my three favorite pop-culture items in the world (that would be TMNT, NIN, and DOOM) will be coming out this year alone. The most recent addition to that list is TMNT; I assume you all have read the update on the official made yesterday regarding Artisan (at long f**king last!) releasing the original TMNT toon on DVD. So, that makes my choice-making even harder.

What I'm trying to say is this: considering what's coming out within this year, what should I get? (choices above)

Well, how much money do you have? You could get all 3 if you had enough.

~~Reznorite420~~ · 01-17-2004, 10:36 AM

Not much...and most of it needs to spent on living expenses anyway (damn the college life!).

*That Matt Guy* · 01-17-2004, 10:43 AM

So you can only afford one thing for yourself in the whole entire time span of a year?

*Anarky* · 01-17-2004, 11:04 AM

go for doom!

**GK Punk** · 01-17-2004, 12:30 PM

If You mean First, I'd say Go For the NIN albums. But, that's just me.

basing on what i like i would go with the tmnt dvd, i played doom 2 and didn't like it, so i probabbly won't like doom 3

Have you seen screenshots? The graphic quality alone is worth getting it IMO. Also keep in mind the following things:

- It's actually a retelling of the first game, so don't let the "3" totally fool you

- The actual gameplay is WAY different than the previous games; the original 2 were "fragfests" with rooms completely jam-packed with monsters, whereas this new one will have less monsters to kill with more of an emphasis on scare factor than anything else. Think of it more of an "interactive horror movie" than a simple game. The monsters themselves will be harder to kill too

Oh well, I'm basing my judgements solely on videos, pictures, interviews etc., and it could be something totally different once the final version comes out.

how many nin albums are coming out you should get a few of those

*Bowser_Koopa* · 01-17-2004, 02:01 PM

i've only seen like 2 pictures of it and i already don't remember what they look like (XD), i should get a demo or something, if its out of course, you should to, and then decide.

btw, by the name of this topic, one would have thought that it was gonna be like "erased out, over amen" topic lol

*Eye of Sarnath* · 01-17-2004, 02:09 PM

You had to ask? Go with DOOM!

*cqb101* · 01-17-2004, 08:01 PM

Doom. Second choice for me would be NIN.

Same here.

*Taloniss* · 01-17-2004, 08:53 PM

Doom. Doom just owns, period.

raphael90 · 01-18-2004, 12:58 AM

Actually what freaked me is that there's already two NIN tributes. I thought NIN only released a DVD and a new cd in 2003...there's so many singles too I don't know it all...

And then to top it off, I think they killed "Pretty Hate Machine"...no stores carry it and even Amazon is on special order for it. TVT killed the classic album...oh why?

Sorry, I went off topic...resume.
