I'm guessing its the beta of Doom 3 thats floating about and allegedly leaked by ATI.

Since I don't have a computer capable of running it nor do I give enough of a fuck about Doom 3 to find and try it even if I did I haven't bothered with it.

It's the Doom demo shown at E3. Runs suprisingly well on a 9700 but pretty slow on everything else (according to comments that I have heard). This is using the default config tho, I'm currently experimenting with the config files trying to find the best config.

I've never like the Quake series for gaming, much prefering Doom to Quake and it looks like Doom 3 is much more of a Doom game than a Quake game....even so I can't wait to see what other game companies do with the engine.
