SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI - News) confirmed today that id Software's highly delayed DOOM 3(TM), will be released when it's ready. The latest installment in one of the most over-hyped franchises in gaming history, DOOM 3 utilizes id's three generation old 3D graphics engine to draw low polygon models in the most frighteningly stupid gaming experience ever created.

"DOOM 3 is the most delayed PC game of the year and fans around the world are fed up of waiting for its release," Ron Doonink, CEO, Activision Publishing. "Id was delivering the most compelling horror gaming experience in 1998, so don't hold your breath for DOOM."

"This summer we're sending game fans on a first-class trip to Mars -- so they STFU about how long development has taken," said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. "DOOM 3 is coming to the PC and delivering the most overdue, overhyped and visually impaired gaming experience ever conceived."
