This actually might make my next video card purchase difficult:

So the X-box gets co-op, but what about the PC?

Universal Studios also pegs it at that date:

They've also acquired the movie rights from Warner Bros.

Damn, thats close. I saw the Pre-Order at BestBuy the otherday. And I thought they were just blowing smoke!

I pre-ordered it from Futureshop for $10 even... No tax. I got a little pewter figurine and $10 off it when I buy it.

Really, the only reason I did it was because I wanted the box.

Holy sh1t! You bought this?

$200 is a lot for a pewter figure! And it's not even the full game! Look at what the pic says in the link.

Oh, and here's this:

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

CD ROM: 8X

CPU Speed: 700MHz

CPU Type: Intel Pentium III

Disk Space: 600MB

Display: 32MB DirectX 9.0 Compatible Video Card

Memory (RAM): 128MB

Operating System Compatibility: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP, Not Mac Compatible

The bolded part is actually surprising. id usually covers all 3 bases (win, lin, mac).

EDIT2:

Apparently, they think it will be a different date:

Pre-Order: Estimated Release Date:September 14, 2004

No, thats not at all what I bought.

What I bought was $10 and came with a pewter figurine. Its nothing more than a reserve on a copy of the game and $10 off when it comes out. No discs or anything, just a box and a figurine.

Oh..........that makes a bit more sense. Well, actually it makes a LOT more sense. Whatever is on that pre-release disk better be pretty frickin' amazing for the price that they're asking.

Actually you can't buy the disk, even if you wanted too.

This bonus pre-order disc is not for sale, its price has been inflated. Not applicable to previous purchases and not to be purchased separately - any Doom 3 Pre-Sale discs ordered separately will be cancelled.

Beta testing is going well:

Though, if the rumors are true, the Beta's already done so it should be going very well.
