iD software bought out

I personally think that Half Life was one of the greatest games ever made.

The best first person shooter that has ever and will ever grace our gaming lives.

Well no, that's another game whose name also begins with 'H' but I really don't want to inflame the fires of hatred and bitterness here :p

One thing is for sure though - Doom 3 won't be remembered, and Half Life 2 will be. Ten years down the line, while we're still fondly reminiscing about Doom I and II deathmatches over lans at college dorms, we'll also be thinking about the Half Life series, but nobody will be giving a damn about Doom 3. There just isn't anything in it to give it long legs, or a legacy. Even iD admits this, and said that Doom 4 will have nothing to do with 3, and is a direct sequel to the first two games - gameplay ethos included. Says a lot if you ask me.
