Haven't received mine yet (none / 0) (#2)

I managed to hold out for a week, but I just caved in and ordered a copy of DOOM 3. If the game objects to the mere presence of certain software packages on my hard drive, that information better be clearly stated on the outside of the box. Most stores won't accept software returns if the box has been opened. If I have to break the shrinkwrap and attempt to install it in order to stumble over this restriction, Activision or id Software will refund my money, even if I have to take them to small claims court.
