Review Vencel 5/5 · Feb 16, 2025
Comencé a jugarlo porque me estoy leyendo el libro que cuenta la historia de John Romero y John Carmack y... es divertido. Sorprendentemente divertido. Tiene ideas que mantienen juegos modernos, y me he quedado con ganas de que el libro me cuente más.

Beat this on the iPhone. I found the controls to work really well. The game was a great nostalgic experience. I completed the first three (original) episodes. Lots of fun.

Read moreDoom is easily in the top 5 most influential video games of all time. It was one of the very early games to popularize the first person shooter genre and in many ways. Doom is still a blast to play, it may have some outdated mechanics and the graphics may be primitive when it comes to today's standards but the gameplay still shines here. The fast paced run and gun gameplay is addicting, the cast of weaponry has become as recognizable as the classic household name video game characters of past eras, the entire package is a love letter to all things awesome. If I were reviewing this game in 1993, it would undoubtedly get 5 stars. Thanks to hindsight however, I'm not gonna go that far. However, unlike many early 3D games, Doom is just probably as fun as the day it was released. I think it's a very rare and special thing when a game that was released this early in a new genre still holds up almost 30 years later.

I cannot deny what this game did for the genre but it just isn't that fun to play anymore on it's own. Some games are timeless and some are stepping stones. I know this is sacrilege but I think Doom is a stepping stone. It just has nothing to offer that other games don't do better I personally feel. Without …
I cannot deny what this game did for the genre but it just isn't that fun to play anymore on it's own. Some games are timeless and some are stepping stones. I know this is sacrilege but I think Doom is a stepping stone. It just has nothing to offer that other games don't do better I personally feel. Without nostalgia it was a pretty annoying experience to complete.
Did not finish the 4th episode as that's effectively DLC that seems to have less consideration put into it anyway.
The gameplay just felt very repetitive and key hunting behind secret walls with no demarcation is just not fun level design.

I sat down to revisit some old ID software ports this weekend. I started with the SNES of DOOM
I was sorely dissapointed immediately. Perhaps it is due to the emulator but the GFX/VFX chip did not translate well at all. Lots of colorful out of place pixels would litter every frame. This is especially jarring indark areas where they …
I sat down to revisit some old ID software ports this weekend. I started with the SNES of DOOM
I was sorely dissapointed immediately. Perhaps it is due to the emulator but the GFX/VFX chip did not translate well at all. Lots of colorful out of place pixels would litter every frame. This is especially jarring indark areas where they are highly visible. That could be forgiven but what is the worst is how strafing and moving feels painfully cumbersome. You literally feel as if you are bleeding to death as the control pad scheme lags and does not respond to input. It's easy to overshoot a turn and then have to painfully whip your way back. Side stepping is implemented but it suffers in similiar fashion. I recall all FPS games of this era on consoles to stink in the same way. Even some of the 'better' ones such as Zero Tolerance, and Jurassic Park (Jurassic Park was perhaps arguably better in the way it played out by making the enemies have delayed reactions until they were in your Line of sight butthe trudging movement was still a rather unpleasant experience. Note that the rest of JP wasn't bad outside the FPS sequences,) IMO it just doesnt work. Can't beat PC title that got shareware going. nope.
slate at least OK, but with less detail.
Also for the most part. The original violence is present. There was no much censoring on the part of nintendo which is a bit suprising considering the time in which it was released and the climate regarding this particular title and video games, as well as nintendo's taret audience at the time. Japan has a very weird thing about religious censorship though. (even more odd considering many of the themes and subjects of many manga's and hentai which i am aware of...)
I completed the first episode, the classic 'Knee Deep in the Dead' I did not take it upon myself to engage in the other two Shores of Hell, and Inferno having seen enough with what was presented. (I can't imagine the running/switch puzzles of those two and how that might translate)
