I think it will be pretty sweet to be able to play it out of the browser and have stats and a friend list. Like a big network game, if they do it right, and if it isn't very expensive, it is an OLD game after all. I wouldn't pay more than ten bucks for it.

Ahhh the good old days of playing Duke Nukem, Quake, and Tribes in networking classes... Nothing better than having someone stand up in the middle of class and yelling at you for fragging them.
