The Daikatana.com website is kicking off Daikatana month with new features that should be going up uh.. throughout the month. They are starting with an overview of all the weapons you can see in the game. Also, I've got the new indexed Daikatana screenshot section online, almost done with the overhaul! Lastly, there is a new Daikatana chat scheduled for December 2nd, I'll remind you guys when it goes down.

  • A few things to consider, whether you\'re a fan of DK or not:

    1) Lower system requirements mean not playing turn-based Q3 multiplayer.

    2) It will make money, loads of it, just not much from very vocal id zealots on this site. DK is not going to bankrupt ION or Eidos.

    3) Porting to various other formats means there\'s even more money, good God, even Monster Suck badness sold well on the N64 and fuckin Superman was in the top 10 for a few weeks, bleh...

    4) Is there another single player title in that time window with even close to the name recognition of DK?

    5) You can\'t blame a designer for having a rookie team get lured away to a new company with big money, have you guys seen the new Kiss screenshot? Obviously there were more problems that just John.

    6) You might not be John\'s \"bitches\", but most of you sure do get defensive about it. Lighten up, its a game, some of you must of freaked out about the Playstation\'s \"U R not Ready\" campaign. I can just see the posts, \"I\'m ready muthafucka! Screw you! Ready this! Playstation is bullshit! How dare you!\"...

    7) John has long hair. So does about 1/3 of everyone I\'ve ever met in the industry, and propably a few of you guys.





















  • Allright, dammit. I\'m sick of all the idiots here bashing Romero. What\'s up with that? John happens to be a friend of mine, and if any of you met him, I seriously doubt you\'d say this shit to his face. He is a genuinely nice guy, who likes one thing: Playing/making games. Period. And yes, he talks smack with the best of \'em, but who doesn\'t when it comes to their skills?

    Bottom line - his team is making a game that they like, and it is very cool...I have an 11/29 build, so take it from someone who has played a recent version, rather than all these morons who slam it based upon an ancient Mplayer demo. Go make your own game, and shut the f**k up! So there :)
