Doom 3 Preview

Blackouts are always inconvenient, but the good news is, it missed Dallas, where QuakeCon is underway - that would have been a serious emergency! The lights, and computers, are still on in Texas, so IGN has been able to provide us with this Hands-On Preview of Doom III. It goes without saying that the graphics look terrific, but what's under the hood? One feature that appeals to me is that hit calculations are based on the actual polygons of your character, rather than the over-simplified hit box system used in today's shooters. "While fighting you'll find that bullets can pass in between a character's legs or the space between their torso and arms without damaging them."
