Awesome! We got a few copies of DOOM 3 CE in today for the Xbox, they use the same exact metal and plastic case Halo 2 used with the clear matte plastic sleeve. And damn it looks SO COOL.
Frankly, I can't wait.

The PAL one is released on April 8th over here. Got mine pre-ordered already!
Jade Empire also have one too, so pre-ordered that as well!
Now if any game deserves a niche metal case, it's gotta be Conker!
Believe it or not, the box they came in said 4/3. But I won't know until um, I find out.Originally Posted by Boboduo
Actually, I did not know we were going to be getting these things at my store. We never got the Halo 2 CE versions, so I got mine at GameStop. But if I had known we'd be getting DOOM 3, I wouldn't have pre-ordered it at GameStop.
The problem is that firstly, in order to change my 8 month old pre-order from regular DOOM 3 to DOOM 3 Collectors, I have to drive 11x2 miles a few days BEFORE (i.e. tomorrow) to change it, then drive out there AGAIN when it comes in. So to save gas in this damn energy crisis and some money, I will be driving out once to cancel. At least I get to keep the Pewter Baron of Hell. :P (They wouldn't let me change it over the damn phone!) Hell, if I didn't care about wasting $5, I wouldn't go at all. But I can SAVE $5 by buying it at my own store!
This'll look sweet on my shelf with Halo 2.
I'm still confused with the release date myself. I've seen 4/3, I've seen 4/4, I've seen 4/5. I'm calling tomorrow and asking the dept. manager as well to tell me what date it really is.
(BTW, our store only got 4 CE's in)
I'm pretty sure the release date is the 4th. Anybody notice that Blockbuster's GameRush is doing a midnight opening for Doom 3. I never expected I'd see that again after Halo 2. Xbox games seem to garner alot of interest.
I hope it plays as well as all the reviews are saying.

I hope Wal-Mart will be selling this for the same price as the regular edition like they did with Halo 2.
Trust me, Doom 3 is good. It's my favourite and most played PC game right now, and I expect the translation to X-Box to be just as good. I preordered the limited edition despite the fact that I don't have an X-Box, BTW.
...Also, the expansion for the PC comes out on the eighth. =P
God, it's flooding here, so I can't go to GS to change my damn pre-order or even cancel it.
So I may lose my $5. No biggie. I got a Baron of Hell out of it, and that saves me from having to pay $10 to buy one from eBay.
I will be buying it the second our computer lets me. (The box said 4/3, let's hope it is 4/3, even if GS and EB have them for 4/4. :P)
I can't wait to review this thing. Damn, I hope the DOOM I and II ports are perfect.
I just returned from my local gamestop. They had the game running but you could not buy it. I must say the game looks very sweet. I cannot believe they squeeze this much power out of the xbox. If you never played the pc version you will be blow away if you played the pc version you will be impressed. I played the pc version this morning and I cant complain with what I saw. My real question if doom is this good what happen to Call of Duty. There is a liberal control configuration screen. I'm sold. The xbox has had an impressive few weeks with chaos theory and doom. Now only if we can get Half life 2

The commercials have April 4th on them, but some stores are doing a midnight sale on April 3.
Online is only up to 4 people -- this isn't going to be a Halo 2 killer deathmatch wise, but the co-op mode is suppoed to be pretty sweet... I don't see anyone bitching about it -- all of the reviews I've seen have been pretty stellar
I have my copy here at home. Its really nice looking I'll agree with that.
My local wal-mart broke the street date so EB sold me mine late last night, joy of joys!
I game therefore I am.
Hmm.. how lucky would I be if I came home tomorrow with a perfectly legal Collectors Edition.. boy, I hope the box was right. If not, no biggie, I can wait another day. Besides, I'll have two days off to play. yay!
if you're lucky, Blockbuster will let you rent them today as they already have them out.
Graphics are pretty damn sweet, havent played the PC version so i can't give any comparisons

I'm picking my CE up tonight at midnight from Gamerush. I've never even seen the PC version in action before, so I don't know what to expect. The reviews sound great though so I'm sure I'll dig it.
If anyone wants to play some co-op later, send me an invite (GT: Norkusa). I won't be able to use my headset though 'cause I got pissed during Third Strike and broke it.
Just picked it up. Collectors Edition case is awesome. Halo 2 awesome. There is only one disc though, not a problem, at least it means it won't be piggy backed like Halo 2 was.
So far I've only tried the DOOM 1 port. It took a second to get used to, then I was into it. The port is perfect. Nothing is missing, transparent walls, all the enemies and weapons. The only changes are text. "Do you really want to Quit? Press A for Yes, B for No" and "Loading Doom 3".
I am now watching the "Icons" videos. They just showed part that morphed between the old enemies and the new versions. Pretty damn cool "evolution" there.
Can't wait to actually play the game.
