That brings me back to thoughts on how the original Quake was supposed to be. The hype included that it was supposed to be like Arena (The Elder Scrolls) in which you could wander through the forests in one direction for hours, and all sounds were supposed to be ambient like you were supposed to walk past a cave and hear something inside....Or how about how you could hear someone below you, and shoot out the boards under you feet and kill that person below you. Hmm, guess that never happened either.

What we got was basically another Doom with a much worse story, but I guess we got decent 3D graphics out of it - but that is just it - that is all we got. Still I guess Quake was a good multiplayer game.

The hype pretty much destroyed it.

PS. SO where exactly is my Duke Nukem 3D 2? Hahahahaha! Still in production and still the biggest hype story of all time! How many years in production now?
