- easy selecting of options like Respawn, level warp, multiplayer games and
- loading of PWAD level/sound/music files and many, many more.For modem games
- DOOM!gate offers a 32 entry phonebook to make dialing your opponents very
- easy. DOOM!gate doesn't take any memory away from DOOM! because of the
- batch-running.
