I never tried bunnyhopping, but strafe jumping is super easy and really doesn't require any immaculate timing. It definitely gives a huge boost in speed--I forget exactly, but I remember it being actually faster than the sprint.

I heard they cut out portions of levels from the PC
especially during the start of the game?!

is this true?

Doom 1 and 2 on this is fucking great. It's splitscreen for coop or DM for up to four people on one Xbox, though it's always in 1/4th of the screen unless you're playing by yourself because the game runs in 320x240 natively, and they keep it that way. I had a great time playing some deathmatch last night.

I believe so. I don't remember walking on that grated bridge or anything else that was totally ripped from Half-Life. I like it.

i noticed that you don't go outside in the beginning of the xbox version, even though it was very short in the pc.

I know that a lot of effort was put into the look of the game, but considering the simple action-orientated nature of Doom 3 and its limited multiplayer options, I can't justify spending more than $20 on this game, even with the online co-op and splitscreen Doom goodness.

Near the beginning, a body drops in front of you from the ceiling with a PDA and the body hangs there. This is the guy everyone stops to punch around and watch the physics. The PDA says his name is Mark Ryan.
