Id Anthology



The id Anthology was a collection released in 1996 by id Software of all the games they had so far made. This not only includes all of the Doom games, but also Quake, Wolfenstein 3D and every game in the Commander Keen series. In total there are 19 games contained on four CDs.

The anthology is particularly prized by collectors, as it contains not only the games, but various collectable items. These are:


 * The Book of id, a book that details the history of id Software.
 * A poster
 * An id Anthology phone card.
 * Two dog tags with the id logo and the id Anthology logo
 * A pewter Cyberdemon miniature.
 * A black t-shirt with the id Anthology logo.
 * The Doom comic.

The id Anthology is often found for sale on eBay, where it can reach hundreds of dollars in price. The value increases if the collection is complete; often, some or all of the collectable items are missing.
