More Id Software games to XBLA?

Doom


Once DOOM was surprisingly added to the roster of Xbox Live Arcade titles as X06, it has gotten many people wondering if more of id Software's gaming library would be coming to the arcade anytime soon. The FiringSquad actually went out of their way to find out and contacted id's CEO Todd Hollenshead to find out for themselves and 360 gamers everywhere whether or not if more of their games will be ported to the system. This is what he has to say:

"We're looking at bringing some of the other games to XLA, but a lot is going to depend on the response to DOOM. From what MS tells us, its been fantastic so far, which bodes well for other id "classics" to be released there. But there's nothing concrete. Making the surprise announcement at X06 for DOOM worked out great, so I'll be tight lipped about anything specific for now :)"

So if you're hoping for more old school first person shooters such as Wolfenstein 3D or Quake to play online with friends over Xbox Live, it looks like action will speak louder than words so everybody should start buying DOOM on the Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points - that's if you haven't already.

Xbox.com already has an achievement list for Quake II already. So we will see that in the future some time. I would love to play that on xbox live. and to "ya", Duke Nukem would be fun as hell, Maybe Duke Nukem 3-D. we'll see.

now, I love playing XBLA. Geometry Wars, Street Fighter online... all good, but 800 points for a game that I can download on my PC for nothing and actually get more features, don't think so???
