FFG licenses Doom for board game

Yes, folks: they took on Warcraft, and now it’s Doom time. This title will feature graphics from the upcoming Doom III, as well as sculpted plastic stuff and what appears to be a modular board similar to the Warcraft board. Presumably FFG is wise enough not to make this play anything like Frag (don’t misunderstand me, Frag became a fine game; it would be a mistake to be seen by the customer as too near it, however). This Slashdot discussion has some of the predictable reactions from the PC crowd, and a funny joke from me. This will allegedly hit in October; it’ll be funny if Doom III gets delayed again and this comes out first.
