Copies Of Doom 3 Downloaded Over The Net News

As one of the most eagerly anticipated games of the year so far is released, TVG learns of the mass scramble to download id’s Doom 3 illegally…
With the US release date of Doom 3 finally here, and with the UK getting its share of the Martian mayhem next week, it was almost inevitable that an illegally released version of the game would become available fairly quickly. BBC Online reported yesterday that thousands of copies of the game were being downloaded via the newsgroups and P2P communities.
The Beeb goes on to say that at certain times during Sunday, more than 50,000 copies of the game were being downloaded, which they calculate could mean lost sales of up to £1.5 million ($2.7 million) for id software, the gameâs developers.
With the UK gaming community having to wait till August 13th, and the Xbox version coming out later on this year, stand-by to be transported back to Mars to face the hordes from Hell very shortly.
