		I don't know what it means maybe they will do some FPS soon. The other possibility is they find their own 3D engine out-moded and they don't want to spend money to develop a new one so they buy this one.

		The unreal engine doesn't really mean they're making an FPS with it, as far as I know, it can be used for other types of games as well.

		This makes me wonder what id's gonna do with their Doom3 engine. Most people consider Doom 3 to be a glorified tech demo (not me, though) and it's clear that the engine is to be the successor to the Quake III engine, which was used, a lot. Epic's pushing their engine a lot, and Valve going the VIP route with theirs (they can afford to), but how is id pushing their engine?
