Will the be one ? Or something like it ? iD would be smart to package something like it, I mean look at the frezy for UT2k4.

I wouldn't doubt it, most anticipated games now have a SE.
 
It would make a great deal of sense seeing as how D3 is suppoed to be id's most moddable engine/game ever.
 
Either way.. I'm itching for a release. I remember installing the original Doom on my 386, then Doom II. I lived for parallel printer networks on weekends with my buddies :)

Word...When I get a final date, then I will start to think about SE versions and whatnot...
 
stick to a release date? dont they first need to announce a release date?
anyways, i think they'll do another tin box edition like what they did with quake3.
 
What is the big deal about a special edition? I bought the ut2k4 se, but only because I didn't want 6cds, plus it came with headphones and was only $30. I mean it isn't like games are collectors items or something. If the SE would have been $40 or $50 and the regular was $30, I would have just gotten the regular version.

I couldn't get mine to work :(
 
lol. Back in the day (1994-1995) Cat5 was nonexistant lol. We'd network via printer cable for DoomII and C&C. Those days owned... OG Lans.. hehe

I'd like to see a DIII SE and own one because the Doom series is a legend and pretty much the father to modern day FPS's. The release of another in how many years ? It will be a title to remember none the less.
 
Definitely would be a good idea to pack Doom III onto a DVD format.

Btw, wtf is SE? Do you realize SE is Second Edition? Kind of confusing if you call "DVD version of a game" SE.

Correct me if I am wrong, SE is Special Edition...Usually DVD edition of a PC game...

Yea, it used to be call "Null Modem" correct?
 
iD is sticking to the release date, they have never changed it and never will.

"it's done when it's done"

And if your using 8n1 settings and null modems, that's a serial network, not parallel. Ahh those were the days...

The generic description is the same game packaged in a different way. This would include: Game of the Year, Collector's Edition, Battle Chest, etc. etc.

A special edition will have one of the following gimicks: special manuals, extra game content, movies, t-shirts, metal tin box, oversized box, headphones, holigraphic cover, paper roleplaying version, cinematics or making of CD or DVD.
