I just noticed this browsing the CAG-O-Matic (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/videogames.html).

The coolest thing is:Full versions of the original ULTIMATE DOOM and DOOM II. With single player or deathmatch and co-op in 2-4 player split-screen modes.

This might make me rethink not buying Doom 3 for the XBox.

Add Live support and you can count me in for a full prepaid order.
I a;ready had this preordered at GamrRush using a deal they had to have the normal Doom 3 fully paid for $30. I'm hoping that I'll be able to upgrade to the CE for $10 more since it seems like it includes plenty to warrant the extra $10. :)

I think I'm going to pass on Doom 3 until there is a price drop.

I guess Collectors Editions are a way to ensure people pay full price. I heard Halo 2, Budokai 3, Glowlanser (well any working designs deluxe edition for that matter) and MK all sold VERY well as CEs. </captain obvious> The only game I can recall that sold like crap as one was KOF:MI, but then again it didn't have a normal version.
Pretty soon every game will have a Collectors Edition, but enough companies will milk it before it becomes passe.
I didn't want to overkill my budget, but Doom 3 just might do it.

Damn....I have the regular version pre-ordered at GameRush....hopefully I can switch it to the CE. I'll wait a few and hopefully they will get it in the system...but I doubt they will let me switch it.
However, maybe if I cancel and re-order it might work. We'll see.....let me know if anyone has success at GameRush

I never played Ultimate Doom or Doom II, before. So, I guess, I'm getting Doom 3: Limited Collector's Edition for the Xbox...:D

I think I might be using my two $20 vouchers from buying Neo Contra and Call of Duty: Finest Hour on this one. $20 Doom 3 CE?

Is anyone else worried that Doom3 is going to have a ton more grapahic bugs then Halo 2 did?
I might wait till Doom3 hits around $20, I already got it for the PC and the replay value really wasn't there.
I can't wait for Quake 4 thou =P

Honestly, I think they are really trying to make Doom 3 work for the XBOX. I figure it should be decent, hopefully the LIVE play will be good, but it looks like it may be limited to 4 players
I haven't really noticed many graphical bugs for Halo2 though....please explain

I've been getting problems where textures won't load during the cut scenes. And once in a while a texture or 2 are late to load in game. But this only happens in the Campaign and not in multiplayer mode. And I know its not the disc because I put the game right on to the HD cause originally I thought it might have been the disc.

Is the trade in 3 games get Doom 3 for Xbox deal still going on a EB. I'd like to get this one ;) Looks like it's good to 1/2/05
If they say no, Then I'll trade 3 toward the regular version and pay $10 more.

Oh, hell yes! I already wanted this game REALLY bad--now I want it even more! Of course, I'm picking up the Collector's Edition when I go get my copy.

The only reason I'm getting it for Xbox is just because my Computer won't run it well.

Well, it's like one or two seconds that textures won't load during a cut scene. It really isn't that bad. I never notice it during the Arbiter/Covenant cut scenes though...

they weren't 1 or 2 sec, the textrues wouldn't load for over half the cut scene. Maybe it was differnt for you but thats how it was for me, and it stuck out like a sore thumb.

Hmm, that's odd? Maybe your Halo 2 disc is defective or your Xbox is having trouble reading the disc for some reason?...
