Sedriss Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I just got recent issue of GamePro, and they had stated that Activision had lost about 10 million in sales the 2nd quarter. So they were cutting some projects. Well it also read that they had to push back some stuff. They are now looking for a 2005 release date for DOOM. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattimeo Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Ahhh man...I sure hope thats not true. I was really looking forward to that game this year. Building a computer for the sole purpose (after 3 years, I need a upgrade anyways) for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chode Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I believe the exact wording is "First quarter 2005", which believe it or not counts December 2004, possibly earlier if they really wanna cash in at Chrismas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayamaniac Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 and they will change the game name to DOOM FOREVER :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmoove Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I don't care at all.... Doom III has never been on the top of my 'to be played' list. I bet that Half Life II and STALKER will probably be a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom III has never been on the top of my 'to be played' list.I bet that Half Life II and STALKER will probably be a lot better. I agree with you, though I list STALKER higher than Half Life 2...I'm impartial to post-apocalyptic-ness (is that a word?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComaBlack Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Sif it will be delayed til 2005. Doom III is guaranteed to be a big seller for Activision. THE GAME so to speak. It'll be out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermang Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I really hope they release it by Christmas, it'll be great. How many of you that are not anticipating DOOM3 have played the first 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David24 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I don't understand why people believe these game developers. I knew last year Half-life 2, doom 3 and Halo 2 would not be out until 2005 or later. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Halo 2 comes out for XBOX 2.

+chorpeac MVC Posted January 7, 2004 MVC Share Posted January 7, 2004 well I can't say I didn't see it coming. Hell with Doom 3, I would like to see some games come out that will be using the same graphics engine. From what I have read, D3 uses a new graphics engine, and the engine is being used by Raven Software to create the next Quake and probably another Soldier of Fortune. Could they release the games before D3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timan Veteran Posted January 7, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2004 They went through all the trouble of printing boxes and putting them in stores i think it will be out in a few months. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedriss Posted January 7, 2004 Author Share Posted January 7, 2004 Hmmm yea but usually it says on the box, *for representation only*. Usually its the not realy box art. I dont know, just kinda ****es me off to no end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvme Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Could they release the games before D3? no. it's idsoftware's policy to put out their game using the engine first... then the other developers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uniacidz Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 You gotta be joking right? LOL... :not another game released later than said: ERGH! :( Well said. And as mentione din the thread already, is prob gonna be the case of waiting over a year in anticipation and then when you finally get your hands on it, its a disappointment. Kinda like Matrix Reloaded :wacko: Oh well, by the time it comes out, PCI Express might be out, BTX PSU will be the norm and Longhorn will prob be out. Ho hum.

BananaMan Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 They went through all the trouble of printing boxes and putting them in stores i think it will be out in a few months. :/ I saw them up in 2002, and I've also seen boxes for DNF, so I don't think those Coming Soon boxes are necessarily a sign of imminent release.
