Doom 3: BFG Edition

"Doom 3: BFG Edition" is a remastered Doom 3 with a seven-level solo section called, "The Lost Mission," which was cut from the original release of "Doom 3."

John Carmack, id's technical director (and Doom's co-creator), said in a press-release, "DOOM 3 was enthusiastically embraced by gamers worldwide. Today, the full experience has been enhanced and extended to be better then ever, and is delivered across all platforms with a silky smooth frame rate and highly responsive controls. New support for 3D TVs, monitors, and head mounted displays also allows players to experience the game with more depth than ever before. We think shooter fans everywhere will love it."

The BFG Edition will include the original game, the already-released add-on; "Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil," the 2004-era "Doom 3" with enhanced graphics, a checkpoint save system, and copies of "Doom" and "Doom II: Hell on Earth" including the "No Rest for The Living" Doom 2 Expansion recently released on Xbox Live.

It will also feature a new, armor-mounted flashlight, allowing players to illuminate dark corners and blast enemies at the same time.

It is revealed that the GPL version of the Doom 3 BFG Edition engine will be released at some future point.
