Doom E3

Activision to show new Doom at E3

Activision today confirmed that they will be publishing id Software's latest effort Doom III, which should come as no great surprise to anybody who hasn't been living under a boulder the size of a small third world country for the last few years. On a slightly more interesting note, the press release also reveals that the game will be debuting at the E3 trade show in Los Angeles later this month. To date all we have seen of the new Doom is video captures of dimly lit tech demos, but with any luck we should get a clearer impression of the game soon. "Doom III will change what people expect to see and experience in a PC game", id CEO Todd Hollenshead enthused. "We couldn't be more psyched about Doom III, and are thrilled to debut the title at E3 with Activision. Get ready to be terrified." Related Feature - Doom III screenshots

Our first peek at Doom III wasn't very enlightening
