Carmack On Doom 3 For XBOX, PS2, and Gamecube

Doom 3 May Come to PS2
"At QuakeCon today, Id Lead Programmer John Carmack said that the highly anticipated PC first-person shooter Doom 3 may be ported to PS2 and Xbox. He added that a conversion won\'t look as good as the PC version on PS2 -- the Xbox port will look pretty near to the PC version, though levels will be segmented because of RAM restrictions. Activsion has an excellent relationship with Id, so it\'s the most likely potential publisher. Also, Id is not likely to develop the potential game, leaving the task for an outside developer."



I got ignps2, but didn\'t john say he didn\'t plan on bring it to a console.  If he does he said it wouldn\'t look as good, strange how he didn\'t even mention gamecube.  More proof that 3rd parties are avioding gamecube.  I still say ps2(Is already better than gamecube) and xbox is going better than gamecube.  3rd parties is the key just look at every system that won its generation every time it had the most 3rd parties.  :thepimp: :thepimp: :thepimp:

:rolleyes:

How is this proof of 3rd parties avoiding the Gamecube? It has already been established that he prefers the Xbox over all the other consoles(due to its PC-like architecture) and he probably decided to port it to the PS2 because of its huge installed userbase.

Please don\'t jump to conclusions unless these conclusions happen to be over a cliff. j/k
