Take a look

Some people have it from their pre-orders.
Yes, Doom 3 looks awesome, but, your computer will probably not supply what it needs to run it at even high quality. Its a shame really.

Just a quick reply to this. Yes Doom 3 is gonna be awesome and i can't wait to get my hands on it, but don't shy away if u have an older PC as ID Software have optimized this game so that it will run well on an average PC. Unlike past games that only 'just' run on the bare-minimum, apparently Doom 3 will run fine. Even new inclusions to their game engine, such as the advanced lighting and bump-mapping, won't get sacrificed on the 'low' setting.

No computer from "Right Now" can run it on "Ultra", not "High"(which is possible "Right Now", and not very hard to do). People think that the game is only made for "high-end" computers, when it's really made to work on even fairly low rigs. My rig is P4 2.53Ghz, 512 RAM, GFMX440, and more than enough HD space, and it looks great...so since there are much better rigs than that, don't spend all of your money in one place now, ya hear?
