800 points is a little steep, i'd grab it for 400.

Are you kidding? 4 Player Doom is one of the finest multiplayer experiences ever!

I wouldn't know
is it still fun in 2006 though?
I must admit i'm tempted, it looks very clean and the surround sound is great

Well that seals its fate. I already have southpaw versions available to me on the xbox.
I could use my southpad if people get that excited.

Is there a need for freelook in doom though? I would have thought the controls would be Goldeneye style on consoles, as in on the left stick = forward/back/turn left/turn right.

um you would still bind move/strafe to one stick and look left/right on the other.

I just tried it on my southpad, i'll be tempted if others get it, co-op might be fun.
only prob is my southpad is screwy, my right trigger is always on... in games like oblivion it makes my block all the time, in doom it just means I can't sprint.
I really need to get it fixed.

Yah, no southpaw on this one... and the southpaw option in the dash makes no difference either, I'm afraid

Fuck that then. 800 points was bad enough but this is worse.

Umm... just switched off the 360, but if you go into your gamer profile, game options, go to "Action" and there's an option to choose which joystick controls movement.

Ever played a modern Doom sourceport? Full GL support, jumping, and freelook really makes it an awesome experience..

I always thought freelook ruined doom. Shooting rockets at peoples feet ruined the whole balance of the game.
If i wanna play a good FPS, i'll go play QW

Thanks to modern technology I went back to the early 90s tonight. All out carnage c/o Doom with Pantera as the soundtrack. All kinds of awesome!!

Once I get live, I'll seriously contemplate getting this. Co-op Doom is just awesome.

I've got a months free at the moment, so no points or microphone. I meant when I actually buy gold I'll have points to be able to buy it.

Do it. The game still rocks and it's way better than Prey.
Also if you're around tomorrow night we'll play some PGR3.
