    wow, I can't believe I actually spent 7.5 pounds on this stupid piece of crap. i only played for 30 seconds and i quit, this game is just too dated and horrible from every conceivable perspective to be worth playing. 800 ms points? nice way to rip-off people MS! and how in the hell did this game get a 9 on eurogamer ? it may have goten a 9 two hundred years ago, when it was "state of thewow, I can't believe I actually spent 7.5 pounds on this stupid piece of crap. i only played for 30 seconds and i quit, this game is just too dated and horrible from every conceivable perspective to be worth playing. 800 ms points? nice way to rip-off people MS! and how in the hell did this game get a 9 on eurogamer ? it may have goten a 9 two hundred years ago, when it was "state of the art" by those times standards, but by today's standards this game is 0.

    Without a doubt, you can find a better way to spend 10$. The game should of been 240 points, at the most. 10$ for a game over 10 years old, classic or not, is just unacceptable.

    Id Software qui ne manquait pas d'idées à l'époque venait de créer un nouveau genre : le jeu de tir à la première personne. A cet égard, il s'agissait d'une petite révolution en soi accompagné d'une maîtrise technique indéniable.

    Mais l'arbre cachait la forêt : le premier Doom n'était qu'un labyrinthe répétitif et idiot en définitive et cette suite bassement commerciale n'a fait qu'exploiter le filon et constitue davantage un "data disk" qu'une véritable nouveauté. Ainsi est recyclé le même jeu idiot et labyrinthique avec des clés jaunes, rouges et bleues. Et des monstres, des tas de monstres. Maintenant, c'est les zombis. Comme quoi, rien ne change, tout se transforme.

    just like the other doom port to xbla and the bfg edition, they yet again just slapped the dos version with no improvements at all, with the music at half speed and no auto sprint

  1. Doom II is just a nostalgia fix. As charming as the experience can be, it’s just very dated.
  2. It's always fun to see Doom II again, but it doesn't make the big splash that it did seventeen years ago
  3. The question is, does this make Doom 2 worth your hard earned? At 800 points, this really depends on how nostalgic you feel.
