Only Xbox Port of Doom 3 Will Have Co-operative Play

Posted by CowboyNeal on Tuesday March 9, 2004 @08:25AM from the taken-for-granted dept.

Ant writes "According to this interview with the Xbox developers Vicarious Visions over at GamePro, only the Xbox port of id's Doom 3 will have co-operative play, and the PC version will not have co-op, unlike the original Doom games. There are also two recent interviews with id themselves on the GamePro site." Co-op was one of the parts of Doom (and Quake) that really got me into the genre, but after I got good enough fighting alongside my friends, I found it was more fun to fight against them, since they were more challenging than anything the computer could come up with then.

When I complain about PS2 exclusive titles, this is the answer I get back. When I give this same answer to PS2 folks, I get flamed. Nice to see the Slashdot double standard is alive and well. Too bad you're an AC or you could have modded me down.

Hmmm, a 5 year old game that runs much smoother than a soon-to-be-released game... Fancy that. I hear that wolf3d gets even better framerates!
