DOOM RPG Gets Prestige Game of the Year Award

Global wireless entertainment publisher JAMDAT Mobile Inc. announced that id Software's popular title DOOM RPG has been named "Mobile Phone Game of the Year" at the 2005 Digital Entertainment & Media Excellence (DEMX) Awards, presented yesterday evening at the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles. DOOM RPG was co-developed by Fountainhead Entertainment and id Software, and is published by JAMDAT Mobile. DOOM RPG is a new take on id Software's world-renowned DOOM franchise. The game preserves the look, feel and excitement of the original DOOM game, while integrating a tactical, turn-based combat system for easy to learn one-handed gaming.

Crafted specifically for mobile phones, DOOM RPG sends players to a secretive Martian research facility to solve the mystery of a massive demonic invasion. DOOM RPG captivates die-hard fans looking for a little bit of hell on-the-go while introducing a whole new generation to the classic that started the first-person gaming revolution.

The 2005 DEMX Awards included 30 market-leading categories honoring innovation and entrepreneurship in digital music, film, games and marketing. Judges were comprised of an elite group of industry executives and leaders hand picked from the digital entertainment industry, representing the creative community, major entertainment companies, academic institutions and the media.
