Ahh, I remember Heretic 2. I believe it was the first game I played where your primary weapon was used for a variety of moves. In fact, seeing as how much you needed to use it, it made no sense to switch weapons. I love how he used the Tome too. "Tome, translate."
 I don't believe it was made by id. For one, I remember this game as having the wierdest numbering scheme. When it first came out, Hexen was named "Heretic 2: Hexen". It was so confusing. -------------------- "Never be normal!" - Ron Stoppable

Keen 6 and Dreams?
I thought Duke Nukem was ID. Aren't there four Wolfenstein games? Etc, etc, etc. -------------------- |

There may be some issues with copyright, in that id may not own the license to all their games (publishers).
Regarding Duke Nukem 3D, it's 3D Realms stuff. -------------------- Greetings from Olav

Heretic II was published by Activision, not id, after Raven (the developers) signed an exclusive publishing deal with them. (And was eaten completely by Activision soon afterwards.)
