Time for some Doom3
« Reply #15 on: May 22, 2002, 11:46:15 PM »
Well considering john carmack has said that the minimum specs for doom3 will be a geforce1 or gf2 mx, there is no reason it wouldn\'t run on an xbox. Also considering that the xgpu has the ability to use pixel and vertex shaders, and multiple textures, and runs at 640x480, there is no reason why it shouldn\'t run at least as well as a computer with a gf3. Now on the other hand, he has outright stated that it would not run on the ps2 without *serious* modifications.

Jesus, the game does look great, there is no denying that.

As for this whole "debate" (it can hardly be called that), Carmack did go on record saying the Xbox would be handle to Doom 3 but I personally don\'t see it being a PC port. If anything, I think we will see the whole game being finely tuned to take advantage of every ounce of power in the Xbox so the game looks close to the PC (aka "very damn good") but not quite up to the PC version (aka "holy friggin\' amazing"). That\'s just my two cents.

Oh yea and can someone please shut up Bio and Rast?
;)

Oh and one other thing. Can we please quit bringing up Halo being 30fps? I mean, sure TimeSplitters was a launch game and ran at 60fps, but it didn\'t exactly push the textures that Halo pushed, now did it?

Some other interesting tidbits that Willits revealed were that Nine Inch Nails\' Trent Reznor did the music and sound for the E3 demo and that he and id Software are currently in negotiations to do the music for the final game. Willits also said that id has no current plans to do an Xbox port of Doom III, though the game could hypothetically run on Microsoft\'s hardware."

ture

 that was one of the BIG stumbling block to a X box version... i mean they are planning to return to the shear weight of number in the enemy Depertment that Doom 1 and 2 had.

Remember DOOM 3 is not another QUAKE 1 & 2 with only a hand full of Enemys, its going to be all out WAR.

well so i heard....

ooseven, you must have nightly hot sex with your ps2--can you please shut up.  You have to be one of the most useless posters here.

D3 will come to xbox--it\'s just too easy to do for them not to--not to mention the money MS would give them and the sales it would generate.  So I think we can safely assume that it is coming.  id themselves probably won\'t do it, but someone will port it under their supervision.

And who are any of us to say it can\'t be done, when Carmack himself says it can be done faithfully with little to no sacrifices, I\'m inclined to believe him, but that\'s just me and I don\'t screw my ps2; opinions may vary.

L-I-C, I believe no one in here was comparing Halo to TimeSplitters. But I do wonder how much the texture quality would have improved, if TimeSplitters were to run at 30 as well...

Anyway, those screens are very impressive indeed...

I know that faston, id NEVER does ports, they give it to other devs to do.  So id has no plans for a port, and it is coming to xbox can be true at the same time.

Nice to see you back, Watch...

And those screens remind me more of Resident Evil than Doom...

:fro:
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
