Doom veterans will be delighted to hear that the double-barreled shotgun, a favorite weapon of many players, will make an appearance in Resurrection -- in fact, from the sounds of things, players will be grabbing it from Sarge's trophy cabinet. Better hope you've made yourself scarce by the time he comes back.

Another blast from the past comes in the multiplayer options. Threewave Software, the team responsible for the original capture-the-flag game style in Quake, is doing the same for Doom 3. It'll come with four new multiplayer maps, and a raised player limit from 4 to 8, but there will be no cooperative play -- "We're saving it for the Xbox version," Hooper commented.
