Doom

The Good
When this game came out in 93, it was a vast improvement over Castle Wolfenstein 3-D. There were "cooler" weapons, better graphics and better sounds. Heck, I can still hear then noises of the various demons and my gun going off as I killed everything that moved! It was highly addictive and after it was placed on the company network, people had a hard time getting any work done! lol Replay value was added by going through at greater difficulty settings.

The Bad
I never liked the bobbing motion of the character as you ran from place to place. After a while it made me sea-sick! I loaded the game up last week for fun and after a few levels I was nauseous.

The Bottom Line
This is a first-person shooter. The object is to get from the entrance to the exit alive. Bonuses for getting through in a certain time frame (which were unrealistic IMO) or for killing ALL the monsters and finding all the secrets. The graphics, sound, and play are dated by today's standards but when this came out, this was top-of-the-line stuff! This is the game which while not the first of it's kind certainly started the first-person shooter craze of today.
