The game that would make us John Romero's bitches is now available on Steam

DSOGaming writes: "Back in 1999, most PC gamers were looking forward to a game that was being created by one of Doom's developers. A game that promised to be better than both Doom and Half Life. A game that would make us John Romero's bitches. Daikatana was its name, and is now considered one of the worst FPS titles ever released on the PC. Daikatana was released in 2000, was powered by the Quake II engine, was featuring awful graphics for its time, was plagued with all sorts of technical issues, and was simply a booooooring, unimpressive, generic title that was hyped to death by the media."

ExclusivelyGames.com writes:

I wish Zenimax and Bethesda would allow him to make a new Commander Keen, because he has said how he wants to make a new game.

I so would enjoy seeing John making games again, them not just being games for your phone and what he could think up next.

MWH2161d ago

I agree, id's most fun and innovative times were when he was there.

BlackIceJoe2160d ago

Well said, John was and still is a legend, but I wish he was still as influential as he was in the past, because a lot of people could learn a lot from him and it would be great to see what new IP he could bring to the world these days.

Nah, you can hang on to them John.
