True, but there is one major difference and I don't mean storyline, weapons
or gameplay.
I know of the original Doom, allthough I haven't played it.
But I know that Doom 1 and Quake 1 shared one thing which Shades of Doom up
to now has never brought.
And this is the ability to design your own
Hi Scot,
In a sense that has already been done. That was the entire point of

Since you mention Elite, I feel this link might be useful to you or anybody
