It was, and is, a very effective close quarter combat weapon.īoth games have been ported nicely, with a few new features that weren’t there originally. If you can remember where all of the secret passages are, or search for them, you can say hello to one of my personal favorite weapons, the chainsaw. But, they did manage to bring back fond memories of much earlier times and were just as much fun as I remembered. They were obviously old school and hard on the eyes at times. While I wasn’t expecting the graphics for the earlier titles to be breathtaking, I was surprised to see that they didn’t look all that bad on a big-screen TV.

Bethesda Softworks has remedied that by releasing all of the titles on the BFG Edition. The DOOM series has had several releases since its inception, and the PlayStation world had missed out on all of them. A friend gave me my copy of DOOM and I blasted through the game like there was no tomorrow.įast forward to 2012 and here comes DOOM3: BFG Edition. Ok, maybe not in today’s terms, but at the time it was top of the line and state of the art. The CPU was clocking in at 33mhz and man was that thing fast. My PC at the time was an Intel 80386 with a 20MB hard drive and a whopping 4 MB’s of RAM.
