haha, you should go take a tour of their studios, maybe you can get a peak at it.
Anyways, it will be available for the X-Box, but at a much later date, and the graphics won't be nearly as clean as it would be on a decent computer. Basically it will run by taking away alot of the strong graphical elements that will be available on a PC.
Alot of people have been misinformed about Doom III. People seem to think that it won't run on anything less then a 3000 dollar super computer. That isn't true. The minimum requirements for the game is a 1ghz CPU, which these days is nothing special. Most people have one at least that fast.
Of course, to run the game with the minimum requirements will force you to dumb down the very beautiful graphics that the game is already famous for, but again... You don't need an super computer for the game to look good. Basically if you have a middle of the line PC, you should be able to run the game looking pretty good. Not quite as good as the screenshots, but still perfectly acceptable.

It's going to be kick ass, the graphics are amazing!
But have you seen the latest video clips of Resident Evil 4? 
It's 3rd person, full environmental interaction...should bring Doom III to shame - graphic's wise!

I dunno about that, the graphics in doom 3, for the pc at least, are much better then the RE4 pics I've seen. Of course, RE4 looks to be one hell of a game, no more zombies though, kinda wierd.

people like PC controls better.. I know I'd hate to play doom 3 with a controller , ew....
also they are breaking the levels down into segments for xbox to decrease load times. as another performance measure the xbox version will have considerably lower polygon count , but will be made up for by adding textures.
and I dont think RE4 has the slightest chance to topple doom 3's graphical techniques..because they're state of the art (the bump mapping and shading techniques alone... #_# ).

the release date as of now is in June, but I don't think that's very solid.

Why would you want to get a FPS game on an XBOX, PS2 or GC anyway?. When you can play it on a PC with a much faster connection, graphics, and more online features. I just think its pointless to open up DOOM 3 on the XBOX. But, damn Im gonna get that game one the 1st day it comes out.

Not to mention PC has mouselook, a must need for any FPS. I don't know how people can use the controller for aiming and shooting in fast paced games.
