DOOM 4

Although 2010-2013 is more likely. lol

Last I heard they said that Rage (another ID Software game) was too big to fit on 2 360 discs and that DOOM 4 is 3 times that size. LOL so that means 2 Blu-Ray discs are most likely. They're going to have to wait until it's standard for computers to come with blu-ray drives before releasing it.

Deep Silver wants to make the culture depicted in Ride to Hell as realistic as possible. The team is committed to doing its research, and for this game they looked to references along the lines of Hunter S. Thompson's Hell's Angels. This game won't be totally realistic -- it is a videogame aiming for entertainment -- but the company says that it wants you to be able to see references in the game and then look them up and find out that they're true.

Ride to Hell follows the adventures of a man who returns from Vietnam and has trouble reintegrating into society. The conservative '50s are over, the hippie revolution has launched, and the horrors of war are still too fresh in his mind. He finds home in a motorcycle gang going by the name of Devil's Hand. Your goal is to help this main character survive and eventually work his way up to the top of the gang, recruiting new members and gaining strength as a group along the way. To do that, you'll need a ride.

Deep Silver stressed to us that, in this game, your motorcycle is the most important possession in the world to you. You can spend hours cleaning it, customizing it, upgrading parts and just cruising the world with it. With so many different parts for your bike, we're told there are "an unlimited" number of variations you can come up with. You can hop off the motorcycle and even get in cars or other vehicles, but the bike will always be by your side. In fact, it's just a call away since it can be delivered to you if you happen to neglect it a little too much and forget where it is.

It might be easier than you think to lose track of where you or your possessions are. The world of Ride to Hell is roughly 95 square kilometers in size. It's based on satellite maps of California, but only the interesting parts. That means cities, coastal highways, and cool landscapes without all the rubbish in between. The goal is to make it interesting enough to make players want to just ride through the roads exploring, though the game will also allow you to just drive off into the desert and go off-road all you want.

With motorcycles playing a central role, it's no surprise that racing will be part of the game. However, it will only be part. There's also a lot of other action-type missions, including things like fighting rival gangs, military missions, delivery quests , and some good old-fashioned on-bike fist fights. The action takes place both on and off the bike and there will even be a bit of gunplay, though that is largely kept to a minimum. Bikers prefer things like pool cues anyway, I hear. There will be plenty of things to keep you entertained in addition to the main quest, in typical open-world fashion. We're told you can get a girl (or boy) friend and drive up to romantic spots to get a little nookie. It's the age of free love, after all.



Ride to Hell is a single player experience, but there will be a few online options available. You can go online and share blueprints for your bike if you make something particularly cool. The game will also allow you to snap photos of your game in action to show the world what you've done.
