PC.IGN is the latest website to whip up a preview on Nerve Software and id Software's upcoming Doom III expansion pack, Resurrection of Evil. Here's the scoop on the new weapon:

Obviously, with the addition of a new expansion, the addition of new guns was also inevitable. "Because you're a combat engineer, we thought it would be fun to add a new toy specifically for someone in that kind of a job," starts Hooper. "We introduce the ionized plasma levitator designed by the UAC to move around heavy objects. It's also called the Grabber for short. You take control of this tool which ends up being a worthwhile weapon as well. You can pick up anything barrel size or smaller and hurl them around. Think exploding barrels, shovels, rocks, and even projectiles from the enemy. Imp fireballs can be grabbed and hurled back as well as the smaller creatures like the trite and cherub."
