Sure you've all read about the unofficial leaked demo; it can be downloaded (all 360mb of it) at

http://www.novaesleite.brturbo.com/Doug/Files/doom_iii.rar

you will need to read & print instructions at

http://users.adelphia.net/~nrgonline/doom3/

first though to get it to work properly, frame rate is terrible 17fps with XP2200 and Radeon 9700 ! it hasn't been optimized yet - hope the official demo comes along soon.

Enjoy !

I had the same, and have been trying to download it again. Don't think I'll bother now.

Couldn't get it working. The archive appears to be corrupt in some way: most of the files will not extract.

I doubt I'll bother downloading it again just to see if it's a one off, either...

Of course it aint gonna be completely finished Sniper its an alpha version, the reason most people download it is probably to see how it is coming along. I mean from what I've seen it looks amazing although no way near completion.

All done. Two and a half hours that took me.

Might be off out in a sec, but I'll post whether it works as soon as I get a chance to test it out.

Not sure I'm going to bother for much longer, to be honest.
