Ok here they are. One of them has a piece of it broken off as i cut them out of the mag for easier scanning.

There is 6. All jpegs (best quality). They are around 700 kb to 1 meg. I also have 10 meg bitmaps but i aint hosting those.

You need an app to zoom in to read the small text. no problem there. Just dont read them in IE or Mozilla / Firefox as it wont zoom in enough.

Doom 3 PC Gamer Review Scans:

Page 6: http://www.gci.l2p.net/doom3scans/doom3-6.jpg



It may look like the pages aren't complete , but they are. I compared the digital pages to the real ones. It's all there.

Maybe someone could put this on main page.. a lot of people want to see the review. And I seem to have gotten the pc gamer one week earlier then other people. (compared to the normal pc gamer delivery dates).

And you can even link to my host. I got lots of bandwith.

hmmm, reading that review, i really do hope my system can handle this game well enough, mainly my 9800 pro. it maynot be able to have the eye candy maxed, but hopefully it can handle it a decent level of detail. i guess i can always oc it to it's max, hopefully it won't kill it...

PC Gamer is usually pretty accurate when it comes to performance and system specs. In that article it says that a Geforce 4 MX could run it with above average detail, albeit slow at times (duh) so don't worry about it. I plan on weathering this storm with the system below no problem.
