I think there were some concerns that a whole new era of graphics cards would need to be made for Doom 3, and other games using that engine. But it seems to me now with the way the drivers are being written, and the capacity of the current GPU/RAM over PCIE or SLI, that we are probably seeing an alignment of video processability versus the industry graphics technology. Doom 3 was and still is the benchmark for graphics technology. Now its the consumers that are trying to catch up to be at their level. Just when everyone is about to get there, that's when they'll release the new hardware. By then, it could be a couple of years before another game hits a milestone in technology like Doom 3 did.
