DOOM 3 Not A 2003 Game

Jul 22, 2003 6:13pm CST tags: Activision, DOOM 3
Sad news for all you guys looking forward to DOOM3, looks like we wont be seeing any DOOM3 this Christmas despite what those posters were saying at E3 2002. Grrr! The HomeLAN guys spotted the updated Activision release calendar in addition to the quarterly financial conference call. DOOM3 is pencilled in for fiscal year 2005 now (but thats just for financial stuff, it means Jan - March 2004). DOOM3 will be done "when its done". A bit more from the HomeLAN story:

Activision also had other game titles that were announced as being delayed, including True Crime: Streets of LA, which will be delayed from September until later in the fall of 2003 and the Gray Matter first person shooter Trinity which will be moved into sometime into the fiscal year 2005 (which begins on April of 2004). Activision also announced that Rome: Total War, the console Call of Duty game and Quake IV are all currently scheduled to be released in the fiscal 2005 time period. Activision execs also speculated during the conference call's Q&A session that they believe that the successors to the current game consoles won't show up until late 2005 at the earliest.
