DOOM (Nintendo Switch) review: not a perfect port, but blasting demons rocks | The Mirror

The best first-person shooter since the 90s has come to the Nintendo Switch, and despite some very clear problems, it's more than worth getting

What I don't get is its 720p in both modes. But in docked mode Switch had like 100% extra power. Would of been nice if it was 900p at least in docked. That's how it works for 90% of Switch games.

It probably looks amazing in handheld mode and slightly underwhelming in docked as a result.

Shiken2784d ago

It has dynamic resolution so it can drop to 540p in handheld if the action is heavy. I imagine docked has zero or little instances of this, which is where the boost comes in.

Still the gap is negligible when playing the game unless you are actually looking for differences. For portability, go with Switch. For higher rea image, go with the other options. All versions are well justified IMO.

"Amazing". Lmao, no. It's serviceable in handheld and blurry and headache-inducing in docked on tv.

TheFirstClassic2784d ago

Yeah remember last gen when we had constant migraines from playing games in 720p? Hoo were those the days.

Knushwood Butt2783d ago

720p on my TV?

Welcome to 2007

lptmg2784d ago

chris2352784d ago

how much did they have to cut to get the game working on the tiny switch? is there anything else than the title screen left?

Samus is on the list. Personally I'd swap the Space Marines with either Grey Fox from MGS or the COG armor from Gears of War.

NecrumOddBoy773d ago

You’re right. Hiding at the bottom so I missed it

REDGUM773d ago

There's no Dead Space listed in here, WTF!

Sciurus_vulgaris773d ago (Edited 773d ago )

I’d take the Space Marine power armour off the list due to it not originating in a video game.

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Immagaiden780d ago

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar780d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter780d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313780d ago (Edited 780d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981780d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman780d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.
