The legendary "Will It Run Doom?" saga sees a new contender: a box. Far from ordinary cardboard, this $666 box from Limited Run Games houses a slew of collector's edition treasures, including a handheld that runs Doom, three physical game copies of Doom I and Doom II, a cacodemon figurine, and trading cards, just to name a few. Pre-orders start on April 18 at 10:00 AM EDT and continue until May 18. They are limited to just 666 copies.
Doom I and Doom II have been released and re-released on several platforms, from the original DOS release to modern platforms. Modders have worked tirelessly to remind us that Doom runs on practically everything: Microsoft Word documents, Quantum computers, PDF files, and so on. Limited Run Games, a publisher specializing in limited-edition physical game copies, is now adding a box to this list. Their latest offering features a trifecta of Doom experiences with a Standard Edition and a retro Big Box Edition, but the real showstopper is the "Will It Run" edition.
