Original Doom 3 yanked from digital stores, only BFG Edition remains

Doom 3: BFG Edition leapt from the shadows last week and brought along a new 7-level segment, improved visuals, and the unfathomable technological leap of attaching a flashlight to your weapons. Yet, replacing it in the shadows is the original version of id’s jumpy FPS which quietly exited SteamGreen Man Gaming, and other digital shops, an otherwise inconsequential swap blemished by BFG Edition’s lack of support for previously published mods due to its updated engine tech.
Eurogamer reports that the $100 Super id Software Pack was the sole alternative for purchasing Doom 3 post-BFG, but that also apparently disappeared sometime this week. GameFly, however, is still offering Steam codes for the original. A few gamers expressed concern over becoming locked out of Doom 3′sextensive mod collection, but a Bethesda rep told Eurogamer the studio is “looking into” solutions in the short term
