This is a revision of his previous submission. I like!

The popular videogame "Doom" is based loosely around the time Satan borrowed two bucks from Vin Diesel and forgot to pay him back.

Only one question . . . what purpose do the vertical lines on either side of the reticle serve?  Honestly, they're a little distracting.
Merciful Father, I have squandered my days with plans of many things. This was not among them. But at this moment, I beg only to live the next few minutes well. For all we ought to have thought, and have not thought; all we ought to have said, and have not said; all we ought to have done, and have not done; I pray thee God for forgiveness.

Hmmmm . . . a good question - I like it without, but then I'm not a developer - I was just trying to get you to take it in several different directions.

Without the lines. Much better.

I think it could use more transparency and it shouldn't abstruct the view of the target... IMHO.
Daddy, What does formatting drive c: mean?
