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?

No it won't miss the sales but its past that stage now with all 3 consoles for me. I don't get excited about sales, they are shockingly boring.

Sadly the future of the PS2 is looking pretty bleak at the moment. I will be getting Pro Evolution 3 and will check out Manhunt depending on how it plays etc. Aside from that there isn't anything that has caught my eye on the PS2.

Do you think the PS2 will miss the sales?

Of course, most of us will actually miss the game itself, but, with the current financial predicament I'm in, I wouldn't ba able to afford it anywaze.

Every game has clichés,but if you're going to release screenshots, you might as well release half decent ones..

Every game I have played in the last 12 months has had one cliché or another.

Its one of the only pure FPS games that doesn't stray away into any other genres. Being a FPS fan I can't wait for this.

They have gone for full on sick and twisted. It worked for Silent Hill and I am inclined to believe it will here as well. I can't wait!
