Doom delay

It looks like Doom fans without a PC will have to wait a little longer to play Doom 3 on their Xbox. Gamespot reports that the Xbox conversion is likely to be delayed until 2005. I saw a version running at publisher Activision's recent Activate event, and it looked pretty decent.

The graphics obviously weren't as good as the PC - a lower resolution on the TV and lack of £300 graphics card the main reasons - but it certainly retained enough of the visual prowess that made the PC game such a blast. Ah, well, Xbox owners will have to console themselves with a stack of other goodies coming out before Christmas, including Fable, Halo 2 and Pro Evolution Soccer.
