Happy tenth, Doom!

[simon]

Yes, the revolutionary is ten years old today (or tomorrow for most of you), which is a cause for celebration. Doom is probably, all things considered, my favourite game ever and will always remain that way. It's still got an enormous fanbase and community, which I am a part of, and it's still as good as ever. No game has had the same atmosphere and feel as Doom. It's still scary too. You forget how old it is once you get immersed in the gameplay. Ahhhh....memories.<br><br>Gamespy has done a great artical, <a href='http://www.gamespy.com/articles/december03/doom/' target='_blank'>Ten Years of Hell</a>. Good reading.<br><br>HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Ahhhhh....<br><br>It feels so good to play DOOM. The never-ending slaughter is what keeps me coming back for more.<br><br>Happy tenth, DOOM.

[Dr. Dos]

Well. I know I'm playing the original all the way through tomorrow. Doom always has been my favorite game of all time. 10 years now... I've been exposed to the violence at a young age <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Yaay!<br>Go meaningless violence!!

[Doctor Fred]

Doom, you're not getting older. You're just getting a little closer 'till death. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Yes BSP, but this is towards DEMONS and ZOMBIES. That's GOOD violence!

*brings out the punch and various snack foods*<br>wel, im sticking around for this! heheh... doom. <br>There was actually a report for the upcoming Doom 3 on www.somethingaweful.com , but im not fetching the direct link right now. In any case, its worth a look, because it's really really funny!<br>*gets some punch*

[Muninn]

I've never played any Doom game, i'm not too familiar with any video game or games system at all and when the game actually involves mindless violence, i just don't play at all. Don't take this wrong, i'm not trying to stop others, they can do what they like.<br><br>What was that recurring game in Ozy and Millie? Blow Guys Up, or something like that.

[MidnightRealism]

They don't make 'em like they used to...the fact that DooM has a more believable and rewarding storyline than many <a href='http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASI ... 88-9030806' target='_blank'>current first person shooters</a> is reason enough for me to love it eternally. Also, it had a chainsaw, and that was pretty rad. Heehee.<br>Oh, and <a href='http://ozyandmillie.org/2001/om20010402.html' target='_blank'>here</a>'s one instance of such games seeping into the world of O&M...

[Dr. Dos]

<a href='http://doomworld.com' target='_blank'>http://doomworld.com</a> which I never really go to, is doing the 100 greatest wads. I played a few now from 1994. For the first time in years I actually jumped. I've played several newer wads, and they really don't make anything like they used to :\. Galaxia, is the one I'm talking about, and I jumped when I found an elevator and... stuff happened.
