	CNN.com - Technology - Feature: 'Doom' changed PC games forever - January 19, 2001
		The Doom soundtrack was a milestone and composer Robert Prince's magnum opus.
		Doom was popular for a lot of reasons aside from the multiplayer games; one being that the level design was pure genius.
		Doom gave way to Doom II and then to Quake, which was followed by Quake II and the pure deathmatch game, Quake III.

	NewDoom.com - New Doom Interviews
		With the new DOOM game we have been able to do what I think is one of the most important things for our game engines here, is the way we have unified the way in which all of our surfaces and lights interact.
		The technologies that have followed from the original DOOM have brought freedom to the artists who are now able to truly bring their visions to life.
		Every generation of technology that John Carmack has created has raised the bar for the industry, and really set an example that other programmers have used to follow, in creating their next generation technology.

	BBC NEWS \| Technology \| Review: Doom 3 lets Hell break loose
		Doom 3 manages it with gusto, combining hectic gameplay with genuine shocks to deliver a deliciously uncomfortable gaming experience.
		Doom 3 is ultimately a technically-sophisticated remake of a decade-old game, novel in its day but still a simplistic opus of running around corridors shooting at things.
		Speaking of Hell, that is a hotspot you end up in during Doom 3's latter stages, and it consolidates the game's mightily impressive capacity to generate a fearful atmosphere.

	PC Gaming - Doom 3 Engine Technology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		All games (well most) prior to now use pre-computed static lightmaps blended with the base texture to light their world, these maps are produced at design time along with the BSP tree from the game editor.
		On top of all this doom doesn't just calculate standard diffuse lighting for its surfaces (like Quake) it is a lot more complex.
		Once loaded into the game engine they look very pretty but they are static, thus a light positioned near a wall when building your level originally, could not be turned off at a later time (in the game engine) as the calculations have already been done.

	Technology: Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil Expansion Pack
		Although the new developer did a great job of creating a similar feel to Doom 3, buyers will wonder what the real incentive is to purchase an expansion that appears to be more of the same.
		The addition of two new weapons, the double-barrel shotgun and the ionized plasma levitator, also known as the grabber, is a sad attempt to add variety to an already ample arsenal.
		This makes for a much less enjoyable experience than Doom 3, where you had to scramble, shoot and run due to the number of enemies on screen and their high tolerance to weapons.

	Doom 3 Q&A - Todd Hollenshead and Tim Willits - PC News at GameSpot
		However, now that Doom 3 has gone gold, the wizards of id are hitting the publicity circuit, suddenly eager to chat about the title that will force thousands of gamers to shell out millions of dollars to buy PCs powerful enough to play it.
		Doom 3 technology is a brand-new paradigm in terms of the way the world reacts and is created, how art is created, how many textures have to be used, and how that stuff works.
		Doom III's engine was displayed in a GeForce3 press announcement, and now you can take a look at it too.

	Doom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Distributed as shareware, Doom was downloaded by an estimated 10 million people within two years, popularizing the mode of gameplay and spawning a gaming subculture; as a sign of its impact on the industry, games from the mid-1990s boom of first-person shooters are often known simply as "Doom clones".
		Doom was not the first first-person shooter with a deathmatch mode—MIDI Maze on the Atari ST had one in 1987, using the MIDI ports built into the ST to network up to four machines together.
		Doom was and remains notorious for its high levels of violence, gore, and satanic imagery, which have generated much controversy from a broad range of groups.

	Doom 3
		I think Doom 3 might have a good atmosphere and make me jump the way Doom used to (and still does on some maps), but it will not be the same, not even close.
		The classic Doom engine, even though it is fairly primitive, still has advantages that are not present in most other current engines.
		Doom is not yet completely obsolete - it still has features that prevents you from detaching from your favourite engine.

	It's time to take another crack at 'Doom' - Orlando Sentinel : Technology
		But with its almost over-the-top sci-fi setting (a Martian colony that finds itself doing double-duty as the literal gateway to hell), there is no way any reasonable gamer could confuse "Doom 3's" ultra-violence for reality, and the game's M (Mature) rating reinforces id's efforts to address an audience that properly understands the game.
		This is a minor initial disappointment: You would expect that, with all the other miracles id provides in "Doom 3," a more robust multi-player mode would be in the offing -- especially because detailed online play is such an important feature in pretty much every PC first-person shooter released now.
		Much of "Doom 3" takes place in the dark, allowing id to pull out some of the hoariest tricks from horror shows.

		Doom defined the genre and was a huge hit — helped in no small part by the first episode being totally free.
		The release of the flexible GeForce3 technology from NVIDIA at the beginning of 2001, heralded a new age of hardware with the capability to finally realize the features that JC had envisaged two years earlier.

		The level of intricacy in the beautiful living, breathing world of Doom is beyond description.
		As a result, the environmental experience is superbly claustrophobic and despite a mechanical approach to advancement (get code, get key, open door, kill monster) you'll barely notice because you'll be running panic stricken as the next demon imp sprints after you.
		Essentially, Doom is brilliant; it does what every first person shooter should do with ruthless efficiency, and yet bears an indelible mark that declares this to be the unique and loving work of Id software.

		DOOM 3's basic system looks great on surfaces that are dull or plastic, but it's not good at rendering high-gloss surfaces such as polished, shining steel.
