Another game that I finished during the 90′s but still enjoyed playing through again (although I wimped out and played it on the second easiest level). It is surprising how similar modern day FPS still are to this classic. Obviously there are some notable improvements, Doom did not let you look up and down for instance, but nearly everything else is still there, powerups, multiple weapons, health kits, ammo drops etc.
Doom originally caused controversy because of it’s content, in particular the blood and demonic references, looking at the cardboard cutouts and extremely blocky graphics makes that pretty laughable now. I especially loved the sprite trees that “rotate” with you as you run around them. If you’ve never played Doom (how could that be??) then I heartily recommend you play it now, you won’t regret it.
