Whilst on the surface, the 3 alpha leak may have proved a success, in that the feedback is unanimously positive, fears are now growing that the alpha demo from E3 was not the only Doom 3 coding stolen from id.

Our insider source informs us that, after some research, it is suspected that members of the Zelaron forums and lownjoo.com, have in fact been releasing information on Doom 3 in the past. As well as other big-name games, from other developers.

The conspiracy thickens however, as it is now suspected that the originator(s) of the alpha leak, also have other important Doom 3 tools. This could, apparently, the development and release of Doom 3, which of course no one wants.

Investigation continues now into exactly what has been leaked, not just from id, but from other developers, who are now also getting involved in the hunt. Any light you can shed, please use the Ferrago comments.

    Not sure about this 'unanimously positive' malarkey - the few screens I've seen of the alpha look decidely rough around the edges, and it apparently runs like a dog even on a 2GHz xp system. Suppose that's why it's an alpha though.

    *sigh* why so much loyalty for that ID company ? It's just a goddamn games company, and no they probably won't loose a dime from that leak, it merely shows off a little of the power, not anything near the final state, furthermore Carmack gets plenty of good comments and publicity. Theres been leaks at many other games, I for one am not afraid to say that the leaks ive had looked at made e get the game.
    Warcraft III I would NEVER had bothered with that game unless i had gotten that leak, warforge powered up severs and the result is there now, lots of gamers that KNOWS how to interact with the map tool, simply cause they had more time playing with it, the relase of WARIII was soon flooded by all the good quality maps that we had been enjoying thorough our playing of the leak. And i know im far from the only one who wouldnt have bothered unless we had tried the leak.

    Unreal II:
    Thats a looooong time since, i had a 400mhz k6-2 and alot of other junk pieces when i got that, still I was literally hooked and since that day where i walked up to the skaarj, I decided that i had to get that game. So I did.

    UT2003:
    Again a game where i was extremely pleased to see a leak, we played, checked out the weapons, again we admired the engine and yes that game also ended up on my shelf.

    I had a bunch of extra leaks in my mind but ive forgotten now. Anyway the POINT of this is that he will only get publicity. And how many would actually buy that game cause of the story ? I doubt many will, its purely the engine that makes this game so goddamn interesting. Now we've seen it, and I got to ask myself and you for that matter, aren't you too going to pick up a copy when it comes ? I wasn't, untill i saw it with my own eyes..
