@parcofantasma : download ZDoom - it's a sourceport of Doom. Then just launch the Doom wad through there and thats it :) I preffer ZDoom over other source ports because it doesn't change the original graphics with awful 3D models. It only enhances the resolution.
Actually, Heretic was the first game where you could look up and down. Heretic was released Dec. 24, 1994, and Duke Nukem 3D was released Jan. 29, 1996.
Nice vid,also right now im using my xbox 360, since i suscribed to xboxunleasher.blogspot. com im very very bussie downloading a tons of games also they teachme how to do firmware modification
man i hope they realease like expansions or "wads" (remember those...) for the doom for xbox 360 arcade for like 200 ms points for like 2 new chapters or something like that
On the part where you say you are the worst Halo player in the universe, you haven't seen me play Halo...I suck so bad, I can't kill someone without a weapon that's better than a Magnum on multiplayer, and I die repeatedly on single player, and I get extremely lost on most the 1-player AND multiplayer levels.
Too bad I actually never played Doom 1, I only played 2 which is superior due to the doublebarrel shotgun ;) BAM, click click, BAM, click click, BAM, click click, BAM, click click ...
I think it is because Doom wasn't that severely different from the PC version. It was really just a straight port, plus they did have a shareware version of it. So I think they thought it wasn't worth more then 400. If you take a game like Duke Nukem 3D that game had more stuff to it then the PC version, so I think they decided it was worth 800
yeah, i guess, but it didnt have much. I just picked up duke nukem 3d like 4 hours ago actually, and to be honest i like doom better. Duke nukem 3D is awesome and i can see myself playing it for months to come, but it is not as good as doom fr half the price. ALso, i got portal stil alive as well:)
you know what still gaming episode would be good? Duke Nukem 3D for Xbox Live Arcade!!! People are still playing and downloading!!! Btw you thought that's hard play the maze on ultra violent!!! That's what I play!!!!
The Ultimate video gaming channel...yeah...need I say more. A 14 yr old who describes his channel as the ultimate video gaming channel and comes on to videos swearing like a bastard and acts all grown up. Don't think you're gonna get much support.
I can tell that you're having a lot of fun playing this game. I know you don't mention it on this part but when I get a X-box 360 I'll battle you online if you're willing...
Ever thought of doing a run through of the 4th episode? It's extremely hard. It's pretty much impossible on Ultra-Violence for that one achievement... :)
he's not trying to copy him,that's just the way he does his commentary.not everyone trys to act like cloud8745 when they say funny or crazy things in there commentary -_-
one of the BEST fps games probably created, and the very first FPS 3d game, back in the day it was very high tech. This game was like GREAT graphics, and also a great game.
DOOM is a classic FPS! No matter what they do to DOOM now(DOOM 3 and I believe there's going to be a DOOM 4), it will never live up to the original(and it's sequels). Who needs those fancy-schmancy graphics anyway?! XD
Your commentary is hilarious! I use to commentate a little when I played DOOM back before there was even a youtube. :P
Oh, and a little addendum: The first FPS that allowed looking up&down was "Hexen" in 1994, which used Doom's engine.
But of course, this "looking up&down" was more ore less faked, considering that Doom wasn't *really* 3D (well, it was in some respects, but lets not get overcomplicated here).
"Quake" in 1996 was pretty much the first *popular* FPS (Terminator Future Shock, Descent and System Shock [not strictly an FPS] came before) with a "real" 3D engine, allowing you to *really* look up&down.
I forgot about Hexen. I used to play that on my Grandfather's PC (without sound effects or music, as usual with stupid PCs back in the day) I may do a live playthrough of that someday, as well. Assuming it plays well on DOSBOX, anyway. Thanks--
Forgot again. I actually own Hexen on Playstation. Finding it may be a problem, though. It's probably useless, anyway, considering it shouldn't work with the analog sticks.
Let me just assure you: In 1993 (and '94, when the "full" version was released) theese graphics were THE SHIT!
Seriously, nothing like this had been seen before, not even on comparable games like Ultima Underworld.
Doom pretty much cemented the PC as the dominant gaming platform, a status it wouldn't lose until the curent generation of consoles (and even today the whole "dominance issue" isn't really resolved :-D ).
During the 8-Bit days the PC was hopelessly outclassed by other home computers (like the C64) and consoles.

Dominance isn't about the specs of the platform. It's about the share of the market. I'll concede to you without hesitation that PC's were way more powerful than their console counterparts until recent years but the console game market has been bigger than the PC market for decades now.
