Maybe those who feel it wasnt worth it, is because they shelled out $55. It
looks awesome I think. And I like the fact its sticks to the original doom
with better graphics and what not. Its just to bad I dont have the money,
hehe. I even got a 5900 geforce for my pc. Im just waiting till the demo
comes out then ill probably buy it when its cheaper. Or if I really like the
demo that much.
