Yeah... right... sadly consoles do not have enough memory to make
games like DooM as good as the PC version. DooM for PSX was good but
came nowhere near the original version. I have played Descent for PSX
and franckly it doesn't even come close to Descent 2 on a Pentium. As
for Duke... Duke on PSX will have a LOT less textures and by that time
most of the PC gamers will be playing Quake anyway. Buy a PSX or a
Saturn for games that are not available on PC like Tekken of Virtua
Fighter!
