Well if you think teh graphics are the same you need to get to the docters NOW because you have serious problems with your eyes.

Doom 3 is made for PC it looks MUCH better.

Pics here.

Now as for the game itself.... I grew up on Wolf 3D and Doom 1. They were the first games I played on the PC when they first came out.

iD are the MASTERS and I mean MASTERS of game engines. They always take graphics right to and past the bleeding edge.

I have full confidence in saying that Doom 3 will be an absolute winner on the PC.

On the XBox however....I don't know. The XBox version doesn't look nearly as good but that's because iD are not handling the conversion, another new company are.

Also personally I think Unreal Championship 2 on XBox looks like it's gonna be one of if not the best console shooter.

Well Halo 2 will obviously better than Doom 3, I don't much like Doom because of that one game which you can't even beat because you go into "He11" and there is no surviving so i found that pretty ugly which made me hate Doom. Halo 2 will be the best game anyway. and Doom 3 looks nothing like Halo.

Actually, there is no "conversion" to Xbox from PC. Doom 3 is being handled by a parallel company, but it is being programmed for the xbox in sequence with the PC counterpart. Thus it will be tweaked to the max for the XBox, just like Halo 2. Two completely different game systems. But PC will be amazing, I just don't game on PC.
I grew up on id games also, love them, but one thing that I don't like about id games is the feeling of moving IN space rather than moving THROUGH THE space of the level. Halo is an excellent example, you feel like you're attached to the ground. You also feel like you are holding the weapon and it is part of the "world." Where in the id games the fps weapons are too 2-D.
Doom 3 will be awesome and if you like Halo, buy Doom 3. Don't talk graphics because they are both gonna smoke your mind. Talk gameplay, two TOTALLY different games. Doom 3 is going to be the Splinter Cell version of Halo 2. Halo 2 will be about surviving a war, Doom 3 will be about surviving. Action flick vs. Horror flick. SWEET BEANS! This is the YEAR for VIDEO GAMES!

Looking at some of the screenshots, the only difference seems to be the resolution. Others, mainly the faces, look slightly superior, but Halo 2 will have excellent graphics, even by top of the range PC standards.
It will be like a continuous battle with the flood, imagine 'The Library' streched out into an entire game.... *hides in corner of darkened room*

Ok, you obviously missed what I was saying. Here is an explaination:

Imagine hiring two companies to build two identical buildings at the same time. Then, give one of the companies nails, hammers, light hand tools, and the other company power tools and heavy machinery.
They have the same plans, so the buildings will be exactly the same other than how they are put together.

Much like the buildings, Doom 3 is going to be built FOR the XBox instead of ported to it. I am trying to find the interview that the guy from id Software did when he said this. Needless to say, it's going to rock the socks off the xbox. Just like Halo 2!!!!!!

No you're right, they're awesome.
Lol, jk Magnetichead, but how can you say that after seeing all the new screens bungie is (or was) giving us? They're beautiful!
Anyway, they'll be the best on Xbox for a while, but they're good enough, and it's story and playability that counts more than anything.
