incite PC Gaming - Daikatana preview

Here's a blast from the past. incite PC gaming went to Ion Storm's offices back in 1999 to visit John Romero and the crew behind Daikatana. This video features both John Romero (game designer) and Stevie Case (map designer) talking about the game. There's also some clips of the game's build at the time. I've never played the game, so I don't know what was changed between this version and the final release.

This video was originally found on the CD included with incite PC Gaming issue #2 (January 2000). The file date's October 25, 1999, so this video was probably shot during the summer of 1999.

99% of daikatana's budget was spent on Stevie's breast implants.

The only thing that made Romero great was that he pioneered the FPS. The genre has since outgrown him.
