Lately I've been DOOMed.

By EightBitWarrior 18 Comments

Don't know what sparked it, but lately I've been playing a crap-heap of DOOM and DOOM 2 on the PC (the best versions by far)

That's a pretty sweet box right there, yo.

I've never actually managed to beat either game until last night. I made it to the final showdown in DOOM 2 and won (with some help from my buddy John). I have to say, from all I've played of both original games, DOOM 2 is by far more crazy, more intense, and overall I'd say more fun. A game that can make a person 10-15 years later go OH SHIT due to the sheer amount of... well doom they place upon you is saying something. Bosses from the first game become basically regular enemies in the second game, if you want me to put it into perspective. Then imagine opening a door and seeing a room FULL of these. Yeah, pants soiled... but AWESOME.
The original is a classic, though.

The only thing I can say is that I could never play the series on a controller anymore. For the most part, the only reason I was able to get by was due to the fluidity of keyboard and mouse controls, being able to strafe around and aim like a champ. When I play on a controller, it just feels a bit too limiting for me, and I underperform. Oh well, it was meant to be played on a PC, so that makes sense.

So what am I going to do next? Well, maybe I should finally hunker down and finish off the original bad boy. We'll see.
