Round up the usual suspects, there are new DOOM 3 Q&As online on
GameSpot,
GameSpy,
and IGN, each
including answers from Todd Hollenshead and Tim Willits, with the middle of the
three articles also adding Marty Stratton to the mix to reduce the sensation of
deja vu. Here's a bit from the GameSpy Q&A on the laurel-resting they are
engaged in now that DOOM 3 is done: Tim Willits: Our very talented
art staff has already started on the next game. Kenneth (Scott, id Software
artist) is leading the team, working on some proof-of-concept stuff, and he's
working on some conceptual art, and doing some really great stuff. So those guys
have already started on the next game, which is awesome. Of course, a few of us
will take vacations here and there, but we're not a rock band (laughs); we don't
take off for six months after we go on tour. This is our job, and we've already
started on the next title.

Propaghandi, you should have a look at bulk-retail prices for processor chips when bought in their thousands...and then realise that the chip market operates on just a couple of percent margins.
There is no way in hell that there is a 500% profit margin on chips...not even 50%. One of the reasons being that yes, research is a mayor cost, but also production (with all the toxic metals being used, the clean-room assembley plants etc.) and the fact that you need quite a few manufacturors to get the final product (multiple chips, partial assembley, final assembley, packaging and distibution), each eating away at the profit.
Anyway, back (slightly) on topic: I too am bummed that all tehse games are being programmed to work better with one card than the other: ATI's and nVidia's marketing campaigns are effectively fragmenting the game market into two pc-consoles: one with ATI cards, the other with nVidia cards. And who suffers? The gamers who just plonked $x00 on a gfx card and gets shit performance in one game and great performance in another.
