Doom II

Take the excellent base game of the original DOOM and add more weapons, new levels, new soundtrack, enemies and basically everything a good sequel needs to create an arguably perfect shooter with everything being balanced and improved upon to make a even more fast paced and better experience. Often seen as "Just more of the original", my personal favorite of the two, it shouldn't just be ignored whichever one is your favorite of the two however, they are both equally worth playing for fantastic games with once again incredible mod support and you have a duo-logy of games that have became a staple of video game culture for very good reasons.

Kudos to the creators who made this awesome game. I still play sometimes at the age of 24 and guess what? Same nostalgic feelings comes whenever I play this game. Doom and blood are the games that can't be created again.

This was one great game! The soundtrack keeps you motivated to fight. The level design kind of makes up for the limited number of creatures to fight. This is kind of uneven. Some of the middle levels were harder than the latter. It could have been spaced more evenly. But the experience is gritty. Considering that this was the early 90's, I'm surprised they pulled this off. The quality is astounding for what they had to work with. All the controls are tight. The way the sprite bobs when you walk. The ending was disappointing. It just became a very hard 3D platformer, when they could have just added another character.

In 1993, Doom was a big hit. It changed the face of RPGs, with its amazing true 3d walls, landscape, etc.

1994 saw the release of Doom II. Everyone expected a lot, and I bought it the day it was reported to be out in my area. Unfortunately I was disappointed. The graphics were brown and dull, and there was not much of a storyline. All you know is that you have to save Earth, nothing more. "So this story doesn't make sense, okay.", I thought, but I was still going to enjoy shooting those monsters. Unfortunately the levels were much more dull than Doom 1, and there were no major changes to weapons or enemies. Only the introduction of the Super Shotgun and about 3 more monsters.

I hope I don't feel this way about "Doom III" which is coming out fairly soon.

If you haven't got Doom 1, I recommend it over Doom II. It is more futuristic, more entertaining and there are better levels in general.

The Doom series is one of the most exciting first person shoot em up video games! The characters, monsters, and the action makes this game a fun non-stop playing time! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

Game Play: The game play is very good. There is really basic controls here and is easy to perform. Novice gamers should have a good time here!

Graphics: The graphics are wonderful especially for the first Nintendo. The backgrounds are really beautiful!

Difficulty: The game is easy but as it goes on you find out that it will become more difficult!

Music: The music is great! Just fantastic catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

Sound: The sound is great. Nuff said!

Overall: I have always loved Doom II! If you like excellent shoot em up games then I strongly recommend you play this game!
