I’m definitely a fan of 2 over the others, but I imagine most modern gamers would have more fun with Future Perfect due to the aiming being more modernized. That and 2’s weapons take a bit more skill to use due to their slower projectile speed and lower damage.

Hey Folks! Did we leave any scary levels out? Make sure to comment below with some that we missed!

Wouldn't say secretly. It's defo up there probably top 5. I have constant arguments at work for saying burnout 3 is the best racer of all time

I feel like this is the perfect example of a game made by great artists... with weak designers (or lack of)

Ai slop

Is that an AI generated thumbnail?

Yes.

Great review!

You can play any doom content you want with modern aiming controls if you use GZDOOM and manipulate the options a bit, its how i play most doom content.

Dude, just use Gzdoom as a normal human being and be able to look any way you want to. 🙂

Definitely one of my favorite ps2 games

Comparing Warhammer with Gears of War is a bit misleading considering that the characters in GOW are hunchbacked and have sausage arms and most of the time the opponents don't have as creative a design as in Warhammer. So in my opinion, Space Marine 2 is something new, superior.

It is not any religion, It is Roman Catholicism, The Western European Variant, that is part of why it works, it is in our cultural DNA

This makes me want to play!

To the crowd talking about how looking up and down was a limitation of the time; Ultima Underworld from 1992, over a year before Doom, was fully 3d and had the ability to look up and down. The problem was is wasn't made with a fast engine.

I swear theres been a huge surge in timesplitters content in 2024

Sackboy: A Big Adventure has better character controls…. Shots fired.

This game reminds us of what it was like when games where full of fun content and a complete package on release........ I miss those days.

OG doom soundtrack is awesome dude! 100% iconic.

I wish they made new Crash Bandicoots for PS like this, oh well

i wouldn't go so far as to say that astrobot will dethrone super mario, but having an awesome platformer on a playstation console is definitely something good.

Bro half of the mechanics is from mario galaxy 1 or 2. There's even enemies that look ripped straight from the game with slight modifications.

No. It’s 1 week of hype. Mario is established.

Not being able to look up/down is better imo than the warped effect that would have happened if Carmack had allowed it (like in Build engine). Also Carmack was working on the Quake engine during Doom 2's development, that's why it fell behind Bungie, technology-wise. Didn't know that they'd built room-over-room though, very impressive

He mentioned Half Life, so I guess I have no choice but to subscribe.

To answer your question based on the title. Yes, absolutely. Also, you can also get platinum awards too, when doing the challenges. Mapmaker was my favorite. Was cool unlocking a lot of the characters and story mode was a blast.

nice video, but you lost me when you said DOOM's music wasn't very good or iconic? Literally some of gamings most well known and loved music, very few aren't aware or like E1M1 for example.

Comment for algorythm 🫶

Been having so much fun reliving my childhood on this game. The new generation of games got NOTHING on TS2…

Incoming thousands of views..

Yes, it is.

Change the size and color of your targeted reticle (300%ish) to help with vertical targeting. Mine switches to big and magenta when I’m targeting them even when I can’t see well. That also helps for hitting shots while strafing quickly on controller.

Great video! Thank you for the shot of nostalgia 😁

I dunno… one of the best reviewed console FPSes of all time? Being good? Madness, I say.

Saying that Marathon is more technically advanced than Doom is a mistake. Blame it on Apple. Marathon came a year after Doom, a year after Ultima Underworld 2(the first-person RPG with actual 3D environments), and two years after Virtua Fighter (the first actual 3D fighting game). Oh, and Magic Carpet from 1994. Doom defined the "3D open-world gameplay experience" as we know it today without using any actual 3D because it would be unfeasible with the era's technology. It used Wolfenstein3D as a base engine and some clever applied math from Space Oracle Wizard John Carmack. And PC, of course.

First of all, Doom 2 has bigger levels, new enemies, and the legendary Double Barrel Shotgun. It might not have been graphically better, but it improved in other areas. The new enemies were the icing on the cake for me-they made the game so much better than the first one. Doom 2 for life!

Marathon fan boy, look up and down blah blah. Next video 11:13

He said "Wolfensteeen". 😞

I was 12 in 93.

MIDI music weirdly gets a bad rap. We don't look down on Megaman or SMB music on NES for essentially being the same thing, we rightly see it as iconic and a smart solution to creating music when it was completely implausible to ship something like a large sound file. There's a whole subculture around FM synthesis chips and retro sound cards. It can give you an appreciation for how iconic and cool the Doom soundtrack is, and how cool the technology actually is (was). Still, it's cromulent to prefer the remix that comes with the Kex engine release.

"How"? You mean "Why"...???

this video is not that great

About the sound, try the PlayStation version. Sounds and music is waayyyyyyy more superior than event Hulshut’s one from my pov.

Souls games scared me for years. Now I can't get enough of them.

The original Doom's weapon system was great because it allowed the player to approach each room and decide for themselves which enemies to prioritize and which weapons to use against them. That's something the new Dooms, especially Eternal, has continued at least in spirit by making you prioritize enemies and decide when to use the chainsaw and powerpunch.

Because it's goated

The real root of Doom's success is something that nobody ever seems to talk about - the entire FPS genre was effectively a minor, largely superficial evolution... of 2D sidescrollers. Not even an exaggeration. Look at Id's own heritage - look at the transition from Keen to Wolfenstein, and you can see it more clearly. Wolfenstein (and Doom) are 2D games. There is no traversable third dimension (Doom only has the visual illusion of it - you can't actually traverse a third dimension). Wolfenstein and Doom are basically 2D sidescrollers... laid flat on the ground. This is why the levels work so well - the finite ammo, the hand-placed enemies, the simple AI that is transformed into complex, unique gameplay by the level geometry itself... it's a finely-tuned 2D sidescroller/simplified dungeon crawler, with a first person camera. A lot of people think that Doom was some revolutionary "new" thing - it's the opposite. It was the refined and polished end result of Id iterating what they knew about game design across multiple titles - Doom was the culmination of their work. Sadly, the fact that nobody bothers to actually study these games and really understand what they are and why they work... has resulted in modern game development suffering heavily, and losing some important lessons. I could write an entire essay about everything that Doom 2016 did wrong, objectively and from the perspective of basic level design principles, but I'll sum it up by saying - original Doom games? A door was a door. Doom 2016? A door was often not a door at all. This might seem like a minor point, but level design is all about creating a visual language... the original Doom games spoke an elegant, pristine and universal language. Modern Doom doesn't know what language it's speaking.

Doom gives me motion sickness. I can barely play 1 level, then I have to stop before I throw up

You should check out Heretic and Hexen. They both run on an enhanced version of the Doom engine with vertical aim.

Dude I was born in 1981, and seeing doom when I was 12 years old in 1993, the graphics and music and atmosphere was unlike anything ever seen!
