It's what happens when you focus on Fatal1ty

lawl

VODS?!?!?!

YAEH GT LUCKY FGT

LOOK AT THEM ALL FOCUS ME

I KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON

WHATEVER

i wanna see daikatana 1v1, Romero vs Mara'akate (Since I know he still hangs out on IRC channels, I think!) or someone else.

I remember he played some deathmatch with the comunity a few years back.

Oh yeah, John is actually quite approachable in that regards I think.

A friend who runs this retro gaming group that has gone through various name changes (RetroDojo, Vinticuffs, not sure what it is now) tried to get John to play with us and he agreed and we actually set a date and such but things happened.

D:

when the shirt starts stressing around the buttons, it's too small

And it also seems that he only posesses one shirt. Every picture and interview I see him in he has that exact same shirt on him.

He actually looks like a cardboard cut out in that pic.

rofl :)

Romero and Carmack was a perfect duo. A crazy mofo full of creativity and a genius geek. It was a really sad day for gaming when he was kicked from id :/

Both would have been awesome guest casters for cakecon, especially Romero as we never see him.

Get him for some 125fps finals day, zoot. It doesn't hurt to ask.

We demand vods!

Well hellllllo John, long time no see....

Romero was a boss and he's single-handedly responsible for sick design of many of id's games.
He was batshit insane even in 1991 but he was THE MAN.

Then came Ion Storm, Porter et al, and that dream about making Daikatana in 12 months.
We all know how it turned out. Cue
#drama
#Chase
#fucked-up insanely designed lavish offices
#war of words with id
#Romero will make u his BiaTCH!!!

Then came 1997 and the monumental fail called demo of Daikatana.

Then came 2000 and the pain was over.

Romero fell from a big height indeed, but he apologized to the community for that fuckup bitch poster. He still loves Daikatana tho. He had a huge beef with Adrian Carmack and John Carmack and they basically fired him from id b/c of his cockiness. But he was THE VISIONARY, THE MAN WiTH THE PLAN.

The match outcome doesnt surprise me in the slightest. And it's not like Fatal is a god, what he can't lose to ole grumpy Romero lol.

The game boy color version of Daikatana is one of the very best games of the console (albeit one with very few greats). No idea if Romero was involved tho.

Yes, it was basically his idea to make it a dungeon crawler.

For any1 interested here's the roM:

Deus Ex came from it so it was worth it.

Ah yeah, the fabled Austin branch.

Not many people remember it, but Warren Spector and his Austin branch of ion were called "the other Ion Storm" back in the day, and rightly so. They shouldn't be mistaken with Romero's mess. They were the only part of IS that turned out to be profitable, btw.

By the way, those interested can grab daikatana for as little as $1 (if you do that you're cheap tough!) :

13 days remaining.

Paying everyone considering buying this 2$ PayPal to not buy it.

I heard every 102 player wanted to buy it, so you might donate $8 to them.

Is it me or does Romero always look cross eyed in every photo.

Man, meeting romero was like something out of another world, i told him that Daikatana made me his bitch.

Heh. He's got so many flak from this he just smiles when you ask him about that poster incident.

TBH, he's been a laughingstock for several years after Daikatana and has dropped from radar, then he resurfaces from time to time and sometimes I feel that he's just trolling and cutting coupons from his former vanity. Still he's one of the Founding Fathers of FPS and deserves respect in that regard.

The only thing we need now is Fatal or Romero vs Carmack. But Carmack would probably code his own weapons on the fly during the match and cause strange and hard to explain packet losses for the rest of his enemies, so there.

Or an Olympic Gods FFA where all the original id software and raven software battle for 50 frags.

Were there any demos?

He's also flaming carmack

And he is trully right, when Wii came out and people started swinging for a tennis ball, they quickly got tired and found better ways to play the same game for hours by using a normal controller.

i, sdrunk im oakstitting

oaks titting?
Does that mean the oaks in your area have TITS? Holy shit!
Or you fight the oaks with your tits?
Sounds like pro game? who won?

or oaks sitting?
Sitting on oaks can be painful when you're drunk - I know that from my own experience.

I feel for you. When I'm drunk I too fight oaks with my tits, challenge the Planet Earth, puke rainbows (literally) and get into an enchanted conversation with a bottle named Jim Beam.

lol you remembered me this, and now i can't delete cause of ur reply. gj
btw going all-in sucks

or challenge Uranus.
