CVG interviewing id CEO Todd Hollenshead:
'How about the Xbox version?
Hollenshead: We're literally in the early stages of getting the technology up and running on the Xbox. The Xbox is completely within the specs of what the target for Doom III technology is.
You'll be seeing a lot of unique textures that literally make the world just the way you might imagine if Hell really had erupted on a spacestation.
What about a PS2 version?
Hollenshead: Frankly, the PS2 couldn't do the math calculations for the geometry acceleration, real time shadows and light. GameCube is the same thing, no version planned.'
I hope that's enough to silence the moronic fanboys?

What, that XBox is capable of things the Cube isn't?
Wow.
Like we weren't being told that for about a year anyway. Doom 3, to be honest, looks to offer nothing more than astounding graphics over Doom II. They said that the gameplay was not advancing much, except for less, more scary bad guys. Yay.
Still, I'm sure it'll be good.
But to be honest, I'd rather play a Nintendo game. Which the XBox can't do.

A pretty predictable reply, but predictable is not always bad.
Personally, I couldn't care less which console is most powerful - I have all 3, but that doesn't alter the fact that fanboys who talk out of their ring-piece p!ss me off.
If Doom 3 was to be appearing on GC they'd all be creaming in their pants, but as it is, it's 'nothing special'.
;o)

Why did you post this in the PS2 and GC forums?
Wouldn't 'chat' be more efficent

No, if it was out on GC, I would still be bored with it. I read in PC Gamer or some such that it isn't advancing gameplay much. Or something.
Meh.
Meh.
Thats good though because with Killzone, Halo 2, Half Life 2, Deus EX 2, Operation Flashpoint XB etc there will be enough FPS variation. This will just be a pure FPS in every sense and I can't wait.
I'll be playing it on my PC where I can have a HIGHER RESOLUTION and HIGHER FRAME RATES because my PC is INCREDIBLY POWERFUL, more powerful than your puny PS2s, GCs or Xboxes.
I hope the fact that it's MORE POWERFUL AND CAN DO BETTER STUFF is enough to silence you MORONIC FANBOYS etc.
Does the person who posted it even realise how intensely hypocritical he is?

I don't think of Deus Ex as a FPS.
Probably because I disliked it muchly, except for smacking people with crude instruments I randomly found. The combat wasn't honed enough really.
