I, like you, wondered if 1.5 was worth it. I took the time to find out and get
it off of infant2, and it was GREAT! The new deathmatch (altdeath) with turbo
250 turned on is a blast! The guy with the rocket launcher no longer wins
everytime, at turbo you can outrun the rockets and move out of the way with
plenty of time. Also it's hard to get your opponent, even with the chaingun,
because he is moving so darn fast! He's over there, then way over there!
