I disagree, it was definately DOOM. I can not say that it was on the
JAGUAR, since they just showed a quick screen-shot. (there were other
inacuracies in the report so it would surprise me if they just through
some cool screens together that had nothing to do with teh actual hardware
discussed) The scenes showed some shooting etc. in teh wherehouse area of
"shores of hell")


should be fun though. I think that the PC version should still be better,
unless they put in on the Jaguar CD. (there is only so much you can stick
on a rom cartridge).


my 2 cents,
