Default confusion about doom3 vs HL2 benchmarks

Hi all,

This recent controversy about Nvidia cards underperforming in HL2
benchmarks sure makes me feel good about my 9600Pro purchase, not to
mention seeing the FPS/$ chart!

Anyways, in Anandtech.com's review of the 5900 Ultra, he performed
Doom3 benchmarks, and Nvidia clearly shines compared to ATI.

Whats the discrepancy here? Doesnt Doom3 make use of DX9 features? Is
that benchmark reliable? Or are we caught up in a media hype after
Gabe Newell's damning report on nvidia?

any thoughts?
