If only... we had published Doom.

I talked to a former Looking Glass guy and found out Looking Glass turned down the opportunity to publish Doom. Egad.

As did Interplay.
Didn't everybody pass on Doom. Isn't that why they had to sell it as shareware.
Wow! This type of info gives me more respect for Id. Because if they weren't as aggresive with there shareware and whatnut, we'd still be playing... uhm... games not like Doom!
etc
If id had never existed, we'd be playing games like Doom anyway because someone else would have invented it. If Newton hadn't existed, we'd still know about gravity. Except they would be called Bildschlager's Laws of Motion, or something.
Wow. That's gotta suck.
It's like a hot supermodel approaching you coming out of a club, making chit-chat and rubbing your arm while saying "Hey, wanna go to my place for coffee?"
"Oh sorry, I don't drink coffee. Bye."
Then it hits you the next morning.
