If that last bit of nostalgia gaming on the Palm Pre wasn’t quite enough for you, we’ve got a quick look at Doom running reasonably well on webOS. Before you start cocking your shotgun, keep in mind this is more of a programmer’s experiment with the environment than a full game ready for the downloading. Of course, it gives hope for the 3D capabilities of the Palm Pre – I wonder if it’s enough to get id Software to port over Doom Resurrection
