I heard some rumors about the devs being interested in having Doom3 be able to run on non-Windows OSes. Any real info on that?
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

It's a possibility, iD have supported Linux and the Mac in the past (Q3 and RtCW both came out in nativce Linux versions and the source code to Dooms 1 & 2 and Quakes 1, 2 & 3 have been released) but I don't care enough to look into finding an offical confirmation.

Highs: Extraordinary graphics and sound; incredible tension, atmosphere, and mayhem.

Lows: Some stabs at humor fall a bit flat.

Bottom Line: Just as we'd hoped, it's a non-stop ride of tension, carnage and terror. A new classic.

Multiplayer:
1v1, DM, Team DM, and Last Man Standing. There are 5 DM maps shipping with the game.

Stabs at humor? In a Martian facility over-run by hellish creatures.. and then indeed in hell itself?

I dread to think...

Probably just minor easter eggs, like the Dopefish or something (yeah yeah, Dopefish is 3DRealms, I know)..

Supossedly, the stabs at humour are emails received on the players PDA - spam & zombie porn, etc.

Words can't describe how little we care about your opinion.

About humour, I can well see Duke Nukem hanged somewhere ( you know, taking revenge for the "Oh, a doomed space marine!" :p )

NB:  Apparently Doom3 will be CD only (3-4 disks, apparently).  Something to do with theprohibitive  costs of a second DVD version.

Actually iD created it, Commander Keen is one of theirs (probably the best game they ever made too).
