If your talking about the Doom Engine then theres a game called Hertic.

I hear Call of Duty 2 will be using the Doom3 enine.

Anything before 2005?

It's not MP focused in the way Q3 was. It's the direct sequel to Quake II -
both in singleplayer storyline and multiplayer style, at least as far as I'm
aware.

In the meantime, it's sequel uses the Quake II engine, and can't run
properly on XP. (Base XP works fine, but some unknown upgrade messes it
up.)

Considering you need a 3.2 P4 and a GF 6800 Ultra to get a steady 60
FPS in room-size maps I don't think any company is going to invest big
money in their game engine any time soon.

Mabye in 3 or 4 years the Doomed 3 engine will come into fashion if it
can do more than Doomed 3 did.

As for Half Life Source... OMFG! Their wide open maps and graphics
blow away anything out there. And you get great frame rates to boot.
I definitely want to see more games using that engine.

A sequel to Quake 2??

I'm sorry... Did Quake 2 have a storyline? I must have missed it.
Maybe they'll make a movie... :/

Yeah I hear WW2 was fought in little rooms with nazis with glowing
eyes popping out of the dark. Should make for a good sequal.

Heretic 2 used the Quake 1 engine.

Games like Half Life 1 used a modified version of the Quake 2 engine.

More of a storyline than any other FPS around at the time.

Besides, it's still my favourite game of all time, so a sequel is highly
welcome :D

It's the other way round - HL used an extremely modified version of the
original Quake engine, whereas Heretic II (and SiN, Kingpin, etc) used the
Quake II engine.

.... and yet I still thought Doom 3 had better graphics than Half Life 2.

Looking forward to this, but Decdember 2005? Man...

Cool, when?

Not planned / scrapped due to some wierd legal issue I heard. I may be
wrong...Also, Raven made the previous SVEF, surely they wont be releasing it

Sweet, again when?

Never played these games, any good?

It also works on mine, but I have to boot from my removable hard-drive. I
strongly suspect that there's some video codec is messing things up, as SiN
also crashes as soon as it tries to play a movie. Both are installed on the
removable, and I can still play them when I want - even if I have to reset
the computer.

Can't do it now, though. Have to restart my computer and plug the
hard-drive in first.
