Doom series

The Doom series is one of the greatest of all time. The original Doom plot sets you on Mars where you are fighting off an invasion from Hell. You roam around corridors and rooms searching for the exits and killing. The greatest foes you fight till the end of Episode 3 in order of hard to hardest to kill are: Cocodemon, Baron of Hell, and Cyberdemon. The hardest of all is the Spider Mastermind (you'll know it when you see it; end of Doom2). That would be easy if wasn't for the fact that there are all these demons and zombies trying to eat you. You could run but wouldn't it feel much better to use a shotgun or a chainsaw to send them back to Hell? That's what Doom is all about. The producers haven't even attempted to put any subtlety in the game. You kill things and they die in horrible fashion. There's blood, gore and violence in practically unlimited amounts. Guess Nintendo's bloodless policy has been cast aside for this one.
The PC and SEGA32X versions are much alike, the SEGA32X is just a little less detailed than a normal Multimedia PC (DX/33+). There is now a Gameboy Advance version of Doom so it can be played anywhere. It is much like the SEGA32X version but when killed creatures leave behind the ammo or other stuff they were carrying and disappear (made less bloody). Some objects and switches are also missing, but all the levels of Episodes 1 through 3 are there and all the rooms and stuff as before. Multiplayer DOOM can be played with the normal link cables. There is The Ultimate DOOM CDROM from id/GT Software that has four games (Episodes 1 through 4) to be followed by Doom2 and it's many levels (Only one big Episode) and the newest additions FinalDOOM : TNT and Plutonia which also adds Doom95 to make it run under Win95+ (Does work somewhat on XP, not sure about Vista or 7). The SEGA32X version falls down here, DOOM is one big Episode and misses Episode 4. Doom and Doom2 aren't true 3D (when you kill something, walk around it and you'll only see one angle), but they are fun and don't require a Pentium to run (A 386 will run Doom).
