Posted by CmdrTaco on from the come-get-some dept.

edawg writes Linuxgames reports that "the Linux edition of Doom 3 has been released by ID Software. Although it didn't ship with a Linux version on the install CD, its still nice to see they release Linux binaries around the same time as their first game patch. Here is Information directly from ID Software."

    time will tell, and maybe these things will come, but most of the time these things loose steam as the team loses motivation and counts $$$.

    you say that like it's a bad thing. ID is a business, not a charity. The economics are probably very simple. The Windows version will likely turn a profit several orders of magnitude larger than a linux version.

    If I worked for ID I know which version I would concentrate on.....
