Hopefully with the 4 player splitscreen from the Xbla version?

Awesome. I’ve been wanting to play OG Doom. There’s something that’s still incredibly satisfying about blasting an Imp with a shotgun.

Foreal and add Duke Nukem 64 while we at

The missing link between Doom 2 and 3, and one of my favorite Doom games

Sirk7x2152d ago

If you have a modded switch, someone ported a PC version of Doom 64, best you can get at the moment :/

SyntheticForm2153d ago

Bring back the PS1 Custom PlayStation Edition and format it for modern televisions. Best version of DOOM to date and that soundtrack knocks it out of the park.

That version suffered from limitations, be far better to have the original doom, the PS1 had to make sacrifices to get it to work because of the RAM limit

Dom_Estos2152d ago

Well, then, you're obviously not aware of the PC port of it, which doesn't suffer from RAM limit. Doom TC it's called. And although it's a total conversion made by one person, what's Bethesda's excuse for not porting it, despite it being made by Williams?

paulust20022152d ago

Glad I’m not the only one that remembers that. Twisted my head, all them strobing lights and baby cries.

Dom_Estos2152d ago (Edited 2152d ago )

I agree. For me, personally, this is what Doom's true vision was all about. The music completely changed the tone of the game. A more fitting one to be honest, despite it having the exact same gameplay. I love the original midi score, but that, along with the game's art, was heavily influenced (some say plagiarised) at the time of development by the metal rock music that John Romero was into, so Id didn't really have anyone with a professional music composer background in the team like Aubrey Hodges.

10000%! I remember getting this version for the PS and it was hands down the best version of Doom I have ever played. And hell yes, I was also blown away by the soundtrack.

WPX2152d ago

That Aubrey Hodges soundtrack was scary as it was awesome. His Doom64 and Quake64 soundtracks were awesome too.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9238d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil37d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

Using Elena to play Crash on Uncharted 4 was pretty great.

Saving some trapped aliens in Super Metroid and seeing them escape. Daisy's third eye in Melee. Seeing Mario characters portraits in a window at Hyrule castle. Megaman X using Ryu/Ken's movesets in mutiple entries. Bayonetta cosplaying as Fox McCloud while using an Arwing to kill angels and demons. So many good ones throughout the years.
