Original DOOM 3 Off Steam

As noted in some irate posts on the Steam Users' Forums, the standalone edition of DOOM 3 is no longer offered on Steam and is difficult or impossible to find on other digital distributors, where the newer DOOM 3: BFG Edition has taken its place. As noted on Eurogamer, the problem is that users have not yet been able to get DOOM 3 mods to work with the BFG Edition of the first-person shooter sequel, leaving those interested in a mod-friendly edition of the five year-old game with limited options (they mention the Super id Software Pack, but this no longer seems to be available in the U.S., either). This does not mean all hope is lost, however, as they have the following quote from a Bethesda rep on the situation: "We do realize that there are fans that would like to purchase the original version of the game, and we're looking into options for them. When there's new info to share, we'll let everyone know."

I can only speak for myself but I often play and replay games years later. Right now I am playing a few SNES games even. Unfortunately I'm not always diligent about keeping them handy, sometimes I lose them in moves and whatnot. So it's helpful to have an option to replace them.

Personally I could care less about Doom 3, I thought it was a thoroughly mediocre game but I can see why it would bother a fan. Is there any reason to remove it other than forcing people to get the newer one? Assuming the newer one sells then they'll be peddling DLC for it I'm sure. It's not hard to see what people are annoyed at (I dont really see anyone up in arms about it).
There is this place... called Ebay. There are even more options available depending on your country and region.

All else fails, perhaps listen to JSP.
