DOOM

I think that we need this thread.

OK people, who likes Doom?

(Later we will discuss the details)

One of the things that defined my childhood - early adolescence. And I messed it up in every possible way with editors. I haven't played the last one since my computer wasn't up to the job.

I'm a fan of all the games, including Doom 3, and I'm sure I'll love Doom 4, as well.

I love id Software. I'm looking forward to their game Rage, too.

And, of course, the Wolfenstein reboot.

Damn, I was late to DOOM but played some of the Linux derivatives of the engine back in my early internet-using days. A buddy and I played 2-player DOOM3 over the internet (both of us on dialup) using LxDoom and kicked the crap out of it. That was hard and a lot of fun

I use to play this against my brother. I sucked, but it was fun. of course he knew all the cheat codes and wouldn't tell me them. (this was before we had internet) I played on the upstairs computer and he played on the downstairs one as we had a home network.

The first PC FPS I ever played was a Doom mod called Chex Quest that came in the cereal box. I played that game obsessively. I've played all the Doom and Quake games. If not for TF2 Quake III would be my desert island game.

Doom is undeniably great. Romero did so well with the design, it's really too bad he lost his touch.

Doom3 got a bad rap for being uncreative. It's an exceptional game. Yes, all they could do was make the best old-school FPS ever. So sorry.

Doom... aaah the memories. What a great game. I remember the first 1-1 matches I had using a serial cable connection.

Now, Doom 3 wasn't that bad. It wasn't as great as the hype made it look, but not as bad as the players made it seem later.

I'll agree that the Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil expansion pack was pretty godawful, though.
