Its from the xbox version of the game, so it doesn't look quite as sharp as the other trailers.

Sorry for the link, but

God forbid somebody offer a premium service at premium prices, or try to allocate their resources that are free for the taking.

I'm to lazy to wait for a FP download to start, and then wait for it to finish, even at 200k/sec.

I read the article, and one thing pisses me off. The co-op. They put co-op in the Xbox version, but not the PC version. What kind of BS is that? That was the most fun thing about the original Doom was playing co-op. Yea, sure, the single-player experience is key, but once you're done with it, you're done. Its alot more fun to play it with other people. Leaving the PC segment without co-op is a big load of crap if I ever saw one.

Its just a hell of alot simpler to make co-op on one machine then make it exist between two. Many couldn't believe that HaloPC was released without co-op, but for the same reason.

edit: oh wow, they plan to have co-op over xbox live. Then I don't know why the PC doesn't have it, except to sell more xbox's and live subscriptions :P

If you're using IE (at least, may work in other browsers) their new download client let's you pick a save folder at the beginning of your waiting period, so you don't have to sit around and wait in line, then save it to disk.

As far as co-op is concerned, id never planned on doing that for the PC version. The company that's doing the xbox port decided to do that as a sort of exclusive thing. I'm told by one of the guys that used to work there that reverse integrating the co-op code back into the PC codebase would be quite difficult, and supposedly they didn't want to do that since the PC version was quite far along. I suppose MS might've also had some money change hands to keep it XBL exclusive as well, you never know.
