Doom 3 BFG Edition Announcement Trailer Posted
For all those who missed the 2004 cult classic Doom 3, Bethesda and id are remastering it for today's gaming platforms (widescreen PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3). Called Doom 3 BFG Edition, the new title includes the entire back catalogue of the Doom franchise, plus Doom 3 (main and Resurrection of Evil) with added levels, that's remastered (our wishlist includes higher resolution textures, improved special effects, tessellation maps, and EAX 4-like sound effects over software). What's more, the perspective will finally be optimized for 16:9 and 16:10 widescreen displays.Bethesda and id will detail the title further at E3. For now, check out the groovy trailer after the break.

Ah well, lets bring out the classics once again I guess, hope they will add this as a patch for those who already have owned Doom 3 for ages on the PC.
Made a Thread about it like 2 years ago...

Anyhow i am not going to buy the game again just to play in widescreen which i already can do & pretty sure i can add/get the other levels online...
Thx! but ill pass...
They just releasing one of their old game with new content, and its obviously targeting new players and not you. I admit, Doom3 is not one of my favorite games and they really need to hire somebody who knows how to make the gameplay fun, but I do like id software, and I hope they will get some money with this one.
We desperately need innovation and guys like J.C in the gaming industry in times like this, when we have coders around who are feeding the hardware with ridiculously unoptimized and ported realtime renderers, because they are not capable of coding game engines.
This could get them some hype perhaps.
Often have the enemy behind your back and that keeps you in constant suspense.
but I've played a couple of times and no more
What happened to the DLC for RAGE???
SPEND AN ENTIRE SECTION ON THE MAIN MENU ON THE DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT AND AFTER ALL THIS TIME STILL NOTHING?
Scandalous!
And now, you have a flashlight on your armor apparently, so no more weapon/flashlight swapping. No opinion on the matter from me, just something to note.
Anyway why Doom 3? I didnt think it was that great but only okay.
Then I saw the trailer and I regret it.:shadedshu
Come on id you could do better!
any enhancement mod out there looks way better than that,
I love the Doom 3 HD mod specially, it just looks so awesome, it almost require a GTX 480 to run fluidly maxed at 1080p w/o AA.
Just look at it:

move along, nothing to see here.
Doom 3, one of the best games I have ever played. It was definitely the scariest provided that you play it at 3am in the dark with surround sound.
I think gun/flashlight swapping is a good feature. It ensures that sometimes you will not be oriented with your surroundings, especially when fighting enemies.
