id Software and Raven are collaborating on a new title based on the Wolfenstein World War II franchise, which will lead on Xbox 360, we've just heard from Amsterdam, where the X05 press conference has now finished. For now the game's called Castle Wolfenstein.

id CEO Todd Hollenshead took to the stage to announce the game, which is multiformat but leading on Xbox 360 - presumably in the same arrangement as Quake 4, which appears on X360 and PC. We'll let you know more when we do.

Speaking on video, id Software's technical supremo John Carmack also paid tribute to the Xbox 360 format, describing it as "better than PC" for games development.

Well, gosh, eh?
