    Even if you've never played any of the DOOM titles, if you like first-person shooters and you own a Game Boy Advance, DOOM II is an absolute must-have game.

    A complete port of the original. It has every enemy, every weapon, and every single level - even the secret ones.

    I was surprised at how fast this GBA version of Doom moved. It can really haul. [Dec 2002, p.152]

    This is what Doom is, and for those who’ve never played the PC original before, it’s wonderful.

    There are a handful of other first-person shooters on the GBA, and a few of them are certainly more complete when it comes to overall design, but none are as vicarious or as stimulating as Doom II.

    A definite improvement over the original Doom, but its impact in the GBA market is much less pronounced from the first game.
