So if you own just one of the Doom games, you get the other for free and updated?

Would have been very nifty to have ultrawide
Played Chrono Trigger ultrawide past weeks, couldn't believe how well it holds up.

PSX Doom/Final Doom TC (Legacy TC, See first post for details)
For those wanting the most current and actively updated PSX Doom experience on PC, check out GECs Master Edition for current editions of GZDoom. The PSX Doom TC in this thread runs on older source ports and is no longer being actively updated, the download links to the original PSX Doom TC are li...

Oh believe you me- I know how awesome this game is! It (along with Final Doom) where 2 of my favs on my PS1. The updated lighting and sound effects plus amazing new music was phenomenal!
Thanks for this!

Use punch on a lot of enemies that you can strafe around. This will help speed you up around the game too.

Hey, better add SNES to the thread title lol
But in all seriousness they said this will have "Performance Improvements" and Rumble support?!?!
Not sure how they are making the cart considering the original uses the Super FX2 chip. Only thing I can think of is its using an FPGA on the cartridge which would make this VERY expensive.

Tips for ultra violence:
Regular shotgun should be your main weapon against regular size enemies, dont spam super shotgun in Doom 2.
Some weapons are more effective against particular enemies, save rockets for medium size enemies or clusters of regular enemies.

Back in the 90s our family computer could not run Doom (shrinking the screen helped a little), so a decent SNES version would have been a big deal. I'm very interested in seeing how this turns out.

Doom 1 is no longer available on the site. Guess a lot of people were like me and just didn't have these on steam already as standalones. I never figured I'd need them cuz of the versions included in stuff like Doom 3.
Also, I have them on Switch, but those don't seem to be updating yet.
Edit: oh, well shit. Getting a steam code for Doom 2, just gave me Doom 1+2 automatically. I didn't realize it'd do that.

What version are you talking about? I thought these were the only doom 1 and 2 on ps4? I own them on ps4/5, switch and steam. Or are you talking doom eternal?

The dos versions didn't go anywhere. These are great as they are modern platform compatible, have a ton of options and are mod ready out of the box. They also are coded for console controls and features, Ala haptics, gyro, controller, etc... Something the dos version never had. I owned them all back in the day, but I'd rather have these.. Oh and my floppies are long gone, so there is that.

GET THIS NOW. It's that good. The updated soundtrack rocks too. This came out of nowhere for me.

The ones before that, which launched in a terribly state. It couldn't even emulate the music properly.

The new Nightdive/Machine Games episode is fucking excellent. New enemies, new weapons, new textures, and some stunning geometry. Parts of it feel like it could be a Build Engine game which is weird 
The Switch version is an entirely new download that doesn’t replace Doom 1993 too. Free, and listed under Recent Releases in the store. Game looks outstanding on the OLED with maximum resolution scaling enabled.
The PC version just showed up when I opened Steam this afternoon. Haven’t tried it on the Steam Deck yet.
Based id Software.

I just played Sigil II and the new expansion. This is great. I downloaded it to my PS5 and Steam Deck. For a moment I felt like I was back on my Packard Bell playing the shareware version as a kid.QUESTION: If you did the Fanatical option of just buying DOOM 2 for $1.75 and then getting both D 1+2....do you just get that or do you get the whole package of all the extra episodes, sigil etc?

If you own Doom Enhanced and Doom II Enhanced on GOG, you also get this new version as well! Check your "Owned Games" section on Galaxy, it will be called: Doom I + Doom II.

You can turn off head bobbling and increase the FOV in this release. That should help with motion sickness.

Played on the Ally X. Stunning. The new soundtrack is phenomenal! I must ask, how does 1 get rid of the aiming cursor in the middle of the screen? Whatever you do, get this package. Shows that no matter how much graphics have improved, gameplay will ALWAYS remain king and nothing will ever conquer the mighty Doom. So far, this is my game of the year! And I really don't see anything coming close.
