Re: Doom HD Re-release
I can't really see a reason to buy it for PC. So probably not.

Re: Doom HD Re-release
Sorry, I mean the 360 and PS3 release that came out in stores today. I personally will be picking it up, if just for the chance to play the originals again in HD.

Re: Doom HD Re-release
I think its just Doom 3 in HD. Also, the flashlight is always on when playing it.

After a price-drop this might be tempting. Will watch a video to discern what's been "remastered".

Maybe when the Oculus Rift VR goggles come out, as the big thing the PC version of Doom 3 really got was support for that tech (assuming they don't just include it anyway, I think the Kickstarter bundles are).RyaNtheSlayA wrote:I can't really see a reason to buy it for PC. So probably not.

According to the EB Games employee I spoke with yesterday, it also includes all the old school games as well. This would be the biggest selling point for me, as I love the originals.

HD pixels, hooray! ... 
I hear split opinions on the flashlight "issue" in Doom 3... what does everyone think who's played Doom 3? Was it annoying not being able to see or was that the challenge/atmosphere/whatnot that defines the game?

It was annoying. Luckily, there were mods that came out very quickly that fixed it.dogman91 wrote:HD pixels, hooray! ...
