Totally agree, I used to play Doom on my 64 when I was really young, some levels were really fucking disturbing, and hards has hell. was a big challenge back then and is a big challenge now, when we see doom 3 we realize that the overall dificiculty in games has been going down since those times. Great game
totalmente de acuerdo, solia jugar doom en mi nintendo 64 cuando era un crio, algunos niveles son realmente perturbadores y dificiles. fue un gran reto entonces y lo sigue siendo
this is the best doom ever made! (n my favorite FPS game)
why? the excesive usage of satanic imagery (inverted crosses, pentagrams, etc), with the dark desing of the levels, sounds from psx doom, hi-res sprites for monsters (that looks like 3d monsters but still with the great sprite desing) and the disturbing soundtrack (i love the endgame ost, reminds psx theme but is more dramatic and less march-like i think) makes a great horror sci-fi game ever made! (demonic sci-fi, not the stupid aliens)
Awesome. I really got to get this port off eBay. Looks really impressive. I couldn't believe how awful Doom for the Saturn was, but this port looks promising.
It's the best port in my opinion, though I know a lot people will differ and say that the PSX port is better. Still, they're fairly the same although the latter looks almost the same as the DOS version, i.e. same textures, monster designs, weapons etc.
I'm just amazed you got Doom64 working on a emulator. All the other times I've tried, the ROM's simply don't agree with any emulator I put it through. Oh, yes;
Brother! You have great taste! I STILL TO THIS DAY haven't played Doom 64. I even bought it used shortly after its release. Sadly, the game was broken, and would not play. I was bummed!
I have been going on a bit of a Doom collecting binge for a while now. My Fiancee got me a copy of Doom for the SNES, and I picked up Doom for the Sega Genesis just the other day. I don't have a Genesis lol. I know a local store that has Doom 64, Doom for PS1, and Doom for the old panasonic 3D0!
I remember that game, I played it a lot, but could never force myself to finish it personally. I never got beyond "THe Altar of Pain" because of the ambient soundtrack that was composed out of human screams. Fuck, that game sure was scary as hell back then.
Can't say I blame you since "Altar of Pain" was easily one of the more disturbing maps in the game. The screams you mention sounded like a baby crying in some sort of weird tone; it was some serious crazy psychological stuff in order make your mind all fucked up.
The composer should get an award for "Most Fucked-Up Soundtrack of the Decade". :P
@Forsete Yeah indeed. I think Doom 64 was one of the scarier games I played. remember back when the N64 came out I was around 15 or something so that game sure scared the shit out of me. I have to say, I also never managed to go through Doom 3, but more because I got bored halfway through. I also found FEAR, specifically the first add on a lot
Doom 3 was accepted well by players and critics alike.
To me this is a lot scarier Doom, the darkest and best Doom game of them all, and I`m modding it on PC!
Doom 3 was scary, but not near this one. This one had the ambiance!
Midway did a great job!

Really strange. Have you tried the Project64 emulator (full support for the EU, JPN and US versions)? Perhaps the ROM is corrupted?
Your computer does indeed seem to have some grudge against older games. :(

I think my computer just has a grudge against anything involving fun or joy. D:

Your girl is awesome, tell her that. I don't know many people who would go out and buy a 15 year old game for an ancient console.
Sucks that you haven't been able to play this game though, it's really something.
