I'm wondering if RAGE is actually a prequel to Doom 3. Probably not, but I felt like speculating anyway.
In RAGE, Mixom company products are scattered throughout the wasteland, and in Doom 3, Mixom is a subcontractor for UAC supplies. I realize this is probably a case of just reusing names and not much thought was put into it, but still. An argument against this is that there's no way it'd be the same company, since it was pre-apocalypse. Perhaps a new company in Mixom's name was started.
RAGE takes place in 2133, and Doom 3 takes place in 2145. This is only a 12 year gap, so it doesn't seem likely that it's in the same universe. Perhaps there have been reconstructed civilizations on Earth for a long while, but the unrepaired wastelands are considered barbaric and are left in the dark about there being new cities. Perhaps the Authority is even part of the UAC, or the other way around.
