Have you ever tried taping 8 different flashlights to 8 different
weapons ranging from a pistol to a badass BFG while carrying a
light-tank-load of ammunition?  I'm not even talking about finding tapes
in that demon-infested compound with those jammed office doors that once
you open them an imp (in the best case) tries to plasma-whack you!

Cut the doom guy some slack!  We owe him our very existence!
