DOOM on Xbox Live Arcade

Posted by diggersf on Thu, 09/28/2006 - 12:15pm | |

Yesterday, word came from X06 that DOOM was ready for download on Xbox Live Arcade for 800 points. It takes me back to the dawn of PC gaming. The game brings all four chapters from the original PC version to the Xbox 360 with smoother graphics and 5.1 Surround Sound. Using the Xbox 360 controller rather than a keyboard seems weird at first, but I definitely adjusted after a few minutes. It supports four player split-screen multiplayer with both cooperative and deathmatch modes. I'm looking forward to spending many nights wasting time with friends mindlessly shooting monsters. And if three friends aren't close at hand, I'll just play on Xbox Live.

haha reminds me of APCS too. There's something about doom in general...it'll never get old for our generation.

I had a bunch of guys over the other night for a few rounds of DOOM. I could almost hear Chad yelling something about Wilfrid Brimley.
