Romero On Doom 3

First post. <P>Yes, I've reduced myself to this level.

I think the new DOOM 3 will be a blast.I also think if they used the Unreal engine it would rock!!!

The new Doom game is probably about two years away. The Unreal engine will be way too dated to use in a new game by then.

They're id. Why the hell would they even consider licensing somebody else's (inferior) engine? Especially when they've got THE TOP engine code writer on the face of the planet?

i sure that doom 3 will rock. DOOM will be da bomb

Doom 3 must rise and crush the pretenders to it's throne; Quake? Bah! Unreal? Feh! Half-Life? Hah! Mark my words: DOOM WILL RETURN AND DESTROY THESE INSIGNIFICANT GNATS! Bwaaaaa Ha Haaaaaa!

Actually I believe Carmack took a very very serious beatdown from the coders doing the Serious Sam engine.

Even after all the hype and and egotism, I have to feel for Mr. Romero. I mean, Doom was largely a result of him. You have to admit, he helped really shape the game into what it became. It must be painful to watch his former colleagues decide to created another Doom game when he can't do anything about it. I wonder, without Romero's input, will it be Doom?
