What's the point in creating trading cards only available with a $666 collectors edition, that only 666 copies of will be made, that gives you 5 random cards, not all of the cards. How could a person even collect them?

Honestly the main reason I was interested, until I saw the price.
Yeah, this wouldn't be worth it at a quarter of the price. I do want to see video the box that plays Doom. Seems like a neat novelty to have on the shelf. If they ever sell this stuff individually at a decent price I'd bite.

Yeah, I think them leaning into the whole "DOOM runs on everything" thing is a great approach. I just can't believe the price, lol. I agree, right there with you.

Who the fuck thought this was a good idea? Some retard in a meeting clung to the $666 price point thinking they were a marketing genius or something?
 
Naughty Dogs taking notes. The Last of Us Complete: Collector's Edition Remastered with some shitty plastic toy for 999 Euro incoming.

This industry has gone totally shit. Never seen so much disgusting price gouging as this industry does right now.
 
Imagine the ports being terrible.
Nah they are decent, even made a lot of popular wads compatible that you can download from within the game itself.

I still prefer GZDOOM, but it's a great option for the consolebros.
 
Technically there was no Doom II - just extra levels packaged together and sold by a publisher as opposed to shareware. It would be DLC these days.
 
You would have to be the most hardcore Doom fan to want this and actually want to pay $666 for it. So, I am guess there will be 666 people will want this. Those people I do not want to interact with because this is a complete waste of that money.
 
Yeah i rather eat shit instead of giving limited fun games any money.

Srsly fuck that company
