DOOM 3 Deathmatch Playable at QuakeCon 2003 is the press release announcing that id Software's upcoming shooter will be on display at the upcoming LAN extravaganza (thanks Tim Kraemer). Here are a couple of bits:

Prepare for DOOM 3(TM)! id Software(TM) and Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI - News) are bringing DOOM 3 to QuakeCon 2003. The world's most legendary multiplayer gaming event will host the first-ever opportunity for fans to play DOOM 3 multiplayer. In Dallas at the Adam's Mark Hotel from Aug. 14 - 17, QuakeCon attendees will go toe-to-toe at the Activision/id Software booth in the ultimate sneak preview of the most anticipated game ever.
...
QuakeCon attendees will have the chance to play DOOM 3's four-player Deathmatch on a level co-developed by id Software and U.K.-based developer Splash Damage, Ltd. Splash Damage has most recently worked with id Software on Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, and will be co-developing DOOM 3's multiplayer levels.

>> Let us also not forget that Source will have several months of exposure before we even see DOOM 3 hit shelves. Lot's of people are hungry to write mods, and Source tools will be in front of them way ahead of the DOOM 3 tools.

With the map editor build into the engine I know people that are aleady creating new maps for Doom3 using the leaked alpha build.

It also includes tools to create light and bump maps from lightware models.

D3 alpha also include a pretty simple and effective camera system. I've already created a simple map and added a camera to fly around the map on load up.
