...they have in past games. This isn't just a run-and-gun scenario; there's actual plot points and stuff. There's a more cinematic sensibility at work too - watch for some nice virtual camerawork in the cut scenes. And of course, the creature design has that signature sick flair that one expects from id's artists, who almost certainly were badly mistreated as children...

Even the winning jockey, Edgar Prado, seemed disappointed. "I'm very sorry that happened," he said after his horse, BIRDSTONE, beat Smarty Jones in the Belmont Stakes by a length, "but I had to do my job." Thoroughbred racing fans should be accustomed by now to that sick feeling, with six horses in the past eight years having lost the Triple Crown in the final stretch, but Smarty Jones, the country's sweetheart, was supposed to be different.
