This old classic will never die. Doom I & II are still awesome to play in this day and age. I find this game more fun that most of the games that are out today.
 Still a Great Play October 29, 2006

As I mentioned in my review of DOOM 3, I recently got the video game bug and I set out to play some classics. First on my list was the DOOM series. So I sat down and in a couple of hours had played through DOOM. To me, this game married a couple of fun elements (although I don't know if it was the first, Wolfenstein might have done this), the first-person shooter and the collection games like Metroid. At the end of each level you're presented with your stats, and I don't know about you, but I play levels over and over until I've found 100% of all kills, items, and secrets. Although I don't know of any bonus for doing this, I'm just a little obsessive about details. In terms of game play, I was happy at how well this game holds up. It is simple but still challenging, especially if you play some of the more difficult skill levels and there is loads of replay value as you try and collect all the items or shave time or use less ammo or play with a higher difficultly level, etc. I've always found the plot to be intriguing, this was why I was so happy with DOOM 3. Even though it only took a few hours to play through the whole thing, I found it very exciting none-the-less, and it reminded me of the several days it took me the first time, when I was a youngin'.
