Firstly, IGN have up their review of the DOOM RPG for the mobile cell phone, rating it a superb 9.0/10.0 score, here's a slice from that:
"DOOM RPG, although based on a 12-year-old game, feels incredibly new. There is no other game on handsets quite like it (although, I really do suspect that will change in the next six to eight months). We're all familiar with the DOOM realm, especially after the successful third chapter on PC and Xbox, but this is just such a slick way to present such hallowed ground without seeming like a cash-in or retread. Many of the monsters in DOOM RPG are taken directly from the classic PC game, as are the sound effects and opening music. Even the little Marine's face in the HUD, which changes from indifference to grimace to devilish smirk, is a kick-in-the-pants reminder of purer gaming days" And the DOOM 3 SP Mac OS X demo has finally been released, weighing 463.5 MB and available for download at Fileplanet.
And also, Gamecloud are reporting thatin Gameinformer's latest issue, they had a few words with John Carmack, lead programmer of id Software regarding the DOOM RPG mobile cell phone game, the upcoming DOOM movie, a possible sequel to DOOM (DOOM 4, anybody? ), and a "Super DOOM 3" version port for the PS3 which would be nothing more than a graphical engine re-make of the already spiffy DOOM 3 engine which has a lastability elapsing of ~5 years (estimated) that's even powering Quake IV for the Xbox 360 - examplified as a perfect next-generation video gaming console as things already are at the moment...
