Life After Doom

Posted by michael on from the postapocalyptic dept.

An anonymous reader writes "What's next for the maker of Doom, Quake and Wolfenstein? Chris Morris of CNN Money talks to id's CEO, who tells us the next id game won't be anything like the others. Rather than a re-hash of its sci-fi or WWII themes, CEO Todd Hollenshead says, 'I'd like to try something new.' [Hollenshead also notes that an as yet unidentified developer with 'a name that people recognize' has licensed the Doom 3 engine.]"

    To be completely correct, there would be no "life after doom."

    You've played id games before, huh?

    If you had a slumber party full of cheerleaders, I'd hope that they would be the ones doing the blowing. Unless of course they were demon-cheerleaders I'm sorry.

    But we'll never see the Doom 3 engine on the xbox.

    Do I smell Commander Keen Arena?

    Just kidding. They really do need to do something, ANYTHING different.
