Only Xbox Port of Doom 3 Will Have Co-operative Play

Posted by CowboyNeal on Tuesday March 9, 2004 @08:25AM from the taken-for-granted dept.

Ant writes "According to this interview with the Xbox developers Vicarious Visions over at GamePro, only the Xbox port of id's Doom 3 will have co-operative play, and the PC version will not have co-op, unlike the original Doom games. There are also two recent interviews with id themselves on the GamePro site." Co-op was one of the parts of Doom (and Quake) that really got me into the genre, but after I got good enough fighting alongside my friends, I found it was more fun to fight against them, since they were more challenging than anything the computer could come up with then.

Well that explains not having it in the release, but why not in a future patch then?

This smells like bollocks to me. Microsoft leveraging their shitty little console and getting exclusive features.

Wasn't Doom 3 rumoured to be XBox only at one point?
