I don't think Betruger was the devil, he just made a deal with him and failed. I don't know if Doomguy went crazy, but he'll be back in the expansion anyway.

And I definently agree with Denny, Doom3's plot was better than HL2's. Namely, HL2 didn't have any plot development. Aside from how you learn about the "benefactors" existance and the fact that Breen is working for them, you don't learn anything that you can't learn from reading a preview of the game.

Doom3 even beats HL2 for the end-boss. Doom3's Cyberdemon was a dissapointment, too easy to beat and you can only hurt it with that cube thingy, but HL2's "boss" was just plain awful. I was hoping for some epic battle with some sort of mutant Strider or something cool, but no, I have to shoot a few balls at a teleporter.
