That Time When Greece Cancelled a DOOM Prequel

A look at the weird, obscure and forgotten DOOM Series created and released in 1998 exclusively in Greece. Who knew that the seminal FPS game on PC, Ms-dos, SNES, PS1, Saturn, and Nintendo 64 would give us something like this?

As someone who is of Greek heritage, I am at least glad to get more of an idea of the Greek gaming fandom was like back in the 90s. It’s interesting to hear that the magazines were so hardcore and that this one had such a basic name lol. Anyways good video! Greece’s retro gaming scene deserves more representation and this is a good example of that!

[@st1ka]

I try to bring representation from other countries when possible ^^

[@RetroGamesCouple]

Hardcore magazines... nah.... :D Not as hardcore as the UK ones, which had page 3 girls. But the language and the humour was... "edgy 90s" for sure.

[@st1ka]

@@RetroGamesCouple Oh I've heard stories lol

[@arkgaharandan5881]

they were so hardcore that one of them had a section in which they wrote offensive fanfic where the editor of the magazine was the evil demon who whipped his workers to work harder and they called him sarcsat which was sort for flesh satan.. So hardcore that they made a comic about violence in football matches where the main hero was getting ready for war with armor and spike boots and rocket launchers and when they asked him if he s a quake hero he said "no i am a penalty giver in the greek football tournament" because they beat the crap out of him in one occasion. They were HARDCORE and did not care about pc, because who is gonna buy those magazines? People who dont care what society thinks. I still trying to track one of the games given in one magazine that was an unreleased rts with dinosaurs but i cant remember the name.

As a Greek person myself, I think this is a fascinating little oddity. I've never heard of this before. I'm so bloody curious to see what this thing is all about, kinda makes me sad we didn't get the next 2 issues. XD

Scar is actually descendant of Hiro, the protagonist of Daikatana. This ties this comic, neatly, into the Romeroverse. I joke, they looked similar.

It would be funny if true though

[@aceofaces]

Well... Must have missed this gem. I haven't seen a lot of magazines having companion comics (aside from Perris and Katya comics that came with the RAM magazine). I wonder if some store has any of the issues from Game magazine.

I think the scene at 8:00 is supposed to be a cyberdemon leading a group of imps or former humans to the unnamed soldier. Thats what I see anyway.

[@hanchiman]

The "ugly" art is actually pretty common art style in the 90's, it sort of an experimental time period with the art with the "Rough art style" where they use alot of stripe shadows. DC and Marvel comics at some point also use these style, like in Punisher from the 90's

[@st1ka]

Yeah, but it looked better when DC and Marvel did it imo :P

[@hanchiman]

@@st1ka oh yeah that because they do it with style. This feel more like "emulate" the style but don't know the technique. It kinda feel like your high school friend doing some doodle comic while ignoring teachers boring lesson

[@nidhoggstrike]

@@hanchimanAs a european who grew up in the nineties, I recognise this style. It was all over the place in our zines and underground comics back then. It's pretty obvious they're trying to emulate the "hyper-realism" style that was popular in American comics (Liefield, Jiim Lee, most of Image comics), but they were either self-taught or the products of traditional European art schools, who detested the idea of commercial work(they still do that!) and and thus purposefully didn't teach them things like varying line thickness; If it was a skill that could be used for commercial work like advertising, tattooing or cartooning, but not for "fine art", then they wouldn't teach it(that part has changed).

[@hanchiman]

@@nidhoggstrike I also live in Europe, so of course the "local comics" that I sometimes read was a bit awful but on the same time a bit "NSFW" types that have alot of nudity and violence, (I wasn't even 16 or 18 yet but still read it in my local library that have a comic section haha). Early Milo Manara had this type of art style but the way he drew woman still look nice though. Also if you check out the box cover for the Polish indie game Franko Crazy Revenge, it kinda looks like this Doom comic

[@nidhoggstrike]

@@hanchiman " I wasn't even 16 or 18 yet but still read it in my local library that have a comic section haha". Dude, literally me. The connection between my sexual awakening and franco-belgian comics is...no wait, I am not going to overshare. But I associate this art style more with punk zines and the various anarcho-communist publishers that were small, and obscure, but very well connected all across europe, so if you lived near some squatters and occasionally went to their concerts you had access to zines from all across Europe. I believe many of those artists also worked for the gaming magazines, which as St1ka pointed out in the video, would do some pretty weird stuff to differentiate themselves from more business-oriented things like PC World.

[@Masuuruhiito]

I am Greek, 44 and an avid gamer since 1990. Well "Games" from its first issue in 1996 till its inevitable demise in 2010 (Greek economic crisis and the internet) was a magazine that in my opinion was something like a portal to introduce new ,usually younger, gamers to the world of video games and let them find their own way later so to speak. The reviews were generally lackluster, generic and either overwhelmingly generous or outright damning depending on the relations the publishing company had with the local video game representative companies. True fact. Nintendo Greece representative Nortec cut all ties with Games magazine after an article that stated that the PSP was a better portable than the DS without actually providing any actual comparison. Now DOOM was a phenomenal hit for the PC gaming community back in the day and Greece was no exception. Perhaps they wanted to ride the hype train and increase sales. The artwork looks awful because it probably is just fan art from a reader. (btw his name is Giorgos Ballantinos as I could barely make it out in 4:39) Terzopoulos printing company, the publisher of Games had decades of publishing history and an absolute plethora of titles of all sorts including the official Disney licensing in Greece so I guess it was pretty easy for them to find an overeager reader with some artistic capacity to publish his take on DOOM. Thanks for this gem of an article. I never knew of this comic's existence either.

7:52 judging by how it looks, the friendly marine bumped into a room with a Cacodemon, a Cyberdemon (one of those legs is mechanical, just like the Cyberdemon's) and the people on the left side of the panel are imps (it was hard to see at first, but they have imp spikes jutting from their bodies if you look closely). My guess is he just waltzed into a room where a Cyberdemon (maybe the one that disappeared earlier?) is leading a small group of imps and Cacodemons.

[@algi1]

@@st1kaDefinitely. I never saw a worse comic book that became a video game franchise.

Não achei a arte da revista em quadrinhos tão ruim. Ela é ruim sim, de fato, mas a colorização é o pior de tudo!

What even the frig is this lol It's like you made a person who doesn't speak english play the English doom, take in the story they dont understand, and make a story about it.

[@st1ka]

it's a beautiful disaster

Is it just me or do some of these look AI-generated?

[@st1ka]

Greek Doom predicted AI art :P

@@st1ka I can confirm this the TOP-SECRET dataset they used to train the AI. It's no wonder the stuff that it generates looks so "good."

I got curious about the censored word because I knew, for a fact, it couldn't be the n-word. The context wouldn't fit it. It WAS the n-word! Dude just, full on, turned racist halfway through the comic! WTF did I just read!?
