I just wanted to ask around if anyone still plays the Xbox version of Doom 3. I read it has online coop. The game is very cheap on Amazon.com Also, it runs on Xbox 360, which I have.

The original Xbox Live service is now offline, so you won't be playing Doom3's coop with that any time soon.

It used the exact same service for original Xbox games on the 360. So yeah, not even on the 360.
Keep in mind, that there are a couple of coop mods floating around for the PC version of doom3. (Last Man Standing and OpenCoop)

The Xbox port is still my preferred way of experiencing Doom 3, but as
Edward850 already pointed out, the original Xbox Live services are now nonfunctional. I played online co-op with a friend on the last day they were up, and was reminded of how laggy it is, so I would recommend local LAN co-op regardless.

Keep in mind that there was also this strange issue where playing a game between PAL and NTSC would create (for no obvious reason) some strange issues in the client prediction.

Wasn't the latter supposed to be part of the "price += $10" updates? I honestly can't see any reason for them to not have included that. Surely a non-shitty VOIP codec and increasingly terrible dashboard UI aren't alone worth the $10 price hike of the service.

Wait, Xbox Doom 3 has coop? I bought a copy when it was released and when I had some money to burn just to see what changes were made, but I never even noticed this.

Mind=blown

It's so shitty how they'll deactivate an online component on consoles. I remember being excited when reading about Twisted Metal: Black being online, but it was too late! They cut off that service years ago. Reminds me of why I play PC games more.
