    Well what can I say? It's retro nostalgia... It''s fine if people are into that, but it doesn't change the fact everything about this is well dated. One for gamer history nerd buffs maybe?

    I would recommend any Doom fan give Doom 64 a try if they missed it the first time around, and in some ways it’s become my favourite Doom game. For me, it scratches that simple classic Doom itchthat Doom Eternal can sometimes lack, and does so with a unique visual style and atmosphere that makes it feel fresh, whilst also aping my early memories of Doom.

    For all its frustrations and occasional steep difficulty jumps, DOOM 64 delivers exactly what it promises, and the added bonus of slightly more content than before coupled with the ability to play the game without getting a thumb blister makes it a great choice for anyone who can't get enough of the Doomguy's slaughter.

    Something that hasn’t aged quite as well are the shooting galleries. The enemy spawns feel too abundant on some levels, causing the gunplay to get a bit too monotonous. This is especially true on 'The Lost Levels' which are brand new bonus missions meant to connect “old” Doom to “new” Doom, but end up overstaying their welcome.
