    The new enemies are all great and the level design is better then the original. Doom II also had the Super Shotgun which kicks ass. The best game EVER.

  1. A dark, disturbing game. And while it may not bring anything new to the genre, it can create obsession-level loyalty if you tend not to look beyond the barrel of a gun.
  2. In addition to multiple difficulty settings and configurable graphics and controls, DOOM II features online support. You can challenge opponents via modem, LAN or a supported IPX protocol to a brutal, no holds barred deathmatch competition.

    Go ahead and buy Doom II - if you think you can take the heat. [Dec 1994, p.134]
