Gamestop, EB, and Babages all told me Doom III is coming out this October. Amazon.com says March 31, 2003. And id has not said anything. I dont know what is going on here?

*sighs* we don't know and not even ID knows ATM. Just wait and see. My guess is (and it is a little optimistic) is that it will be released on the 10th birthday of Doom.

There's no real reason to believe that. And I don't see why you call that 'optimistic', because I believe it's going to come out a few months sooner than that

In any event, it'll be a 2003 release. Don't trust Amazon.com.

Well, even if they do get it done before then I think it would be a better marketing stratgety (sp) to release it on Doom's 10th b-day.

I have a computer that can run it now. I'm probably going to get the latest gfx card when it comes out, tho...cpu too.

i think another year is too late, given it is being based on geforce 3. i think it would be wise to release it at the end of 2002 or the first of 2003. a whole year is a long time and many things change in the computer world in a year. if it is relased next year then ID may not have the hole on the gaming technology.

also i hope it does not turn into a duke4 or daikatata, first duke4 will never come out and when if it did it would suck. second daikatana was delayed alot and it sucked too

I don't think that Doom 3 is that far away. John is already talking
about the next level of tech using the NV 30. I have a sneaky feeling
that the game will be about 6 months away. I could be out to lunch.
Wishful thinking. I remember before Q3 was released they showed a demo
with Q3 running on the new pentium 3 processor. At the time i had a
P1 233 with a voodoo 2. I was blown away thinking "it will never run on my computer" but it ran fine at 800 by 600 and detail pulled back a notch.
ID are the kings of optimization and meeting deadline goals.
We will be blasting denizens of hell by March 2003.
I'm trying to be positive.
