(I don't want to play the same thing over and over again) The pictures would be different, but the gameplay will be the same. I can't see many people paying $150, let alone $50, for "even more of the same stuff with new pictures." Especially if Id goes through with their intent to release the file formats (but not the actual map editor) to the public. On another thread: Am I the only one who was disappointed in the recycling of sound effects in the registered version of Doom? Almost everything sounds like the pink demons. -- New .signature under development. Start your development now! Beat the crowd!
