Just wanted to put this out there since there seems to be a lot of misinformation about this one:
It looks amazing. Can't believe it's a 15 year old game.

DOOM 3 is Native 4k/60fps on Xbox One X
- Thread starter digitalrelic
- Start date
Ah if only they got HDR into this too, guess it was from before it was a thing. Game looks stellar on Pro too.
Unrelated but it might still be considering what they pulled off with DOOM 2016 post-patch.
Been playing all weekend on X and it's glorious. Increased FOV and flashlight shadows had no noticeable effect on performance. If it's been years since you've played it, do yourself a favor and get it! It's so much better than I remember.
I'm enjoying it on switch handheld mode. Nice that they did this though. If the hardware is capable take advantage.
I would hope so considering that Doom 2016 is capable of hitting 4K 60FPS albeit in a dynamic type setup.

OP
Many games of this nature receive no enhancements on the X / PS4 Pro, so it's newsworthy, especially when it hasn't officially been advertised as enhanced in any way.
Right, but I said it because 4k / 60fps seems normal in One X that is impressive.
I played a bit and I would say it's most likely well above 1440p on Pro. At super high resolutions I can't really tell the difference so I can't get more specific than that.
lol I clicked on the thread ready to post maybe dynamic 4k, which it will end up being anyway.
I wouldn't think it's completely impossible that the Pro could be 4k as well. This is a 2013 remaster of a 2004 game being ported to a far more powerful system.
fuck i bought the trilogy on Switch as soon as it was announced. might do it again on Xbox for the achievements and to see what Doom 3 looks like in 4K. I get that it's not going to be the most impressive-looking thing out there, but being there back when Doom 3 originally launched and the "there isn't a computer that exists that can run it at max-settings" hype, I will always have a soft spot to see how it looks on any platform it comes out on.
I've grown to prefer 1080p 120fps over 4K 60fps, it's half the fill rate too so would be cool if it supported that. I *think* Doom 2016 does on X1X along with Battlefield 1.
Can someone please tell me what resolution this 2004 game that came out a few days ago runs on the PS4 pro?
The game was always poorly optimized. Here's GTX 1080 Ti sometimes even dipping below 60fps:
Either it's not running at max settings on the X, dynamic resolution or just optimized better than on PC.
Is this new console release based on the original Doom 3 or the BFG version?
Why?
Pro has some stellar looking newer games running extremely well at 4K checkerboarding. DOOM 3 is 15 years old. I wouldn't be all that suprised if it runs at 4K on Pro also.
I would guess it's the BFG. Don't see why they would go back to the original.
The fact that its possible surprises nobody. Still it takes developer effort to make it happen, and not all developers would put in that effort.
Poorly optimised? Huh? It runs amazing on anything.
Just because someone turns on 16X AA in game like in that video (which is obscene as it actually super samples in the NV driver under OGL at 16x MSAA), does not mean the game is poorly optimised at all.
8X MSAA + 4K will be an easy 60 fps on that GPU
My pet peeve is when people turn on super high MSAA at 4K then cry it's "unoptimised" it's something a lot of people do lol.
But yeah i was gonna say Doom 3 on OG Xbox was the best looking console title of gen 6 imo, so it's cool to see it on 4K/60fps on XBX. i love how many people are appreciating Doom 3's visuals, even if the gameplay isn't so amazing.
Yes, John mentioned that they will cover it, just that since it released as a surprise launch, they were rather busy covering Wolfie Youngblood instead. You should expect a video covering this within the week I'd say.
My man, one does not pretend a game is poorly optimized when it cannot maintain 4K60 100% of the time at freaking 16x AA. Even in this very specific video you just posted, does it really even dip below 60fps? I couldn't find the instance where it does.
BFG edition runs stellar on pretty much everything.

He's working through Doom 3 right now. He's even tried it on different screens and talking about how much it benefits from OLED blacks make it even better than it was on the CRT monitors of it's time.
I encourage you all to follow Dark1x on twitter if you want to have a glimpse on stuff he might be working on and show him some first-hand support.
The game originally came out in Spain on my birthday and I haven't managed to beat it yet because I can't handle horror since I was gifted it on that day.
So its commented by Dark1x that it performs like this on X1X but not a slither of a comment about Ps4 Pro?
Interesting.... probably not had time to try the Ps4 Pro version and literally just owns the X1X version. Cool.

Yep. It seems like the folks that did the port job did good work (except for the stupid online thing, but it seems like Bethesda is to blame for that)
