Correct. Doom is just "shoot-beng-shoot". There's no scenario or plot or
whatsoever, and that makes the game really poor... I even was a bit afraid
about Metal Gear Solid for PSX being "3D". The 3D-graphics always seem to
cause bad scenarios...

Yeah, but why? Because every average jackass with enough money can buy a PC
nowadays. Just because "the neighbour has one too". And that's a shame. And
that whole "I have a better one" attitude is so stupid. Sure, if I have the
money I can buy myself a Pentium 999 with 256MB RAM, 64Gig harddisk, and so
on. But if I use it just for some simple applications like Word, it's
completely useless. PC's are just like cars these days. People just want a
bigger-and-better one than the neighbour has....

That's the difference. MSX users have something that is called "a brain"...

Sounds like a plan...
