do you think that id can pull off the feel of old doom?

i dunno but i'd sure love to see them try. Doom 3 actually sounds more appealing to me that Quake 4 at this point.

I'm suprised it took them this long that they need to re-release / update Doom.Just put Doom on the Quake3 engine with new graphics and I'll be a happy camper. OH yeah, doubled barrel shotgun here I come! ------------------

Personally, I think it's just like Wolfenstien. The plot, charachters, and atmosphere could turn out to make one hell of a great game. However, ID will have to put some serious work into it to meet everyone's expectations of a single player game with the Doom name. And looking at ID's past lineup of games, I'm just not sure they're capable of doing it.------------------

It's promising, but could backfire. Everything now is centered around the multiplayer aspect, and I don't know if they could pull off a good single player.I guess we'll see though... ------------------
They have cats in the future?

Wasn't Final Doom Technically Doom 3?
and if it wasn't wouldn't making another PC sequel after FINAL doom be as tasteless as another elm street movie after freddy's dead, or a friday the 13th after jason has already gone to hell, or maybe aven another Indiana Jones movie after the LAST crusade?

Actually, "Last Crusade" is kind of open to interpretation there. Doesn't necessarily refer to a final movie, but could equally be taken to mean the end of the search for the grail, finding a knight of the crusades guarding it, and such.

It had better have good netcode. I was playing doom II with a(1) friend over 56k, and it was laggy as a fucking 48 person tirbes game!

speaking of tribes.. i can't wait till tribes 2, that looks sweet.

They could do it. Why not? But with Doom being a shoot 'em up and the one player games leaning heavily toward "Halflife" story line, you'd lose a lot of the flare. But is is a really cool idea. I still want another Duke. ------------------

They are doing it.. he's a small quote form this article."It wasn't planned to announce this soon, but here it is: We are working on a
new DOOM game, focusing on the single player game experience, and using brand
new technology in almost every aspect of it. That is all we are prepared to
say about the game for quite some time, so don't push for interviews. We
will talk about it when things are actually built, to avoid giving
misleading comments."
