Wow, after looking at many sites dedicated to the original, the classic... the best of the best, Doom... I finally found one. After sorting through many, many ports of the classic game, I wanted the original feel, action and look to the game back, like in the good-ol' days, when gaming was at it's best, in my opinion. I nearly gave up on my search, until I uncovered chocolate doom... oh, what a find!
This version, to me, captures the exact feel of the original, as it's objective clearly states. A great set-up program, and an easy to use basis makes this port a favourite of mine, and I highly recommend it to anyone who misses their old computers, and the dos days. I have played the titles many a time, and I will continue to do so for the years to come.
For the content of chocolate doom I was amazed at how well it captured the original '320x200' look of the old-school resolution, and after direct comparisons through doom95, dosbox and zdaemon, I have found chocolate doom to provide the richest, most original expierence. This goes for the sound quality as well, as I've always had issues trying to find versions that captured the original sounds and soundtrack that was intended for us to enjoy. Many ports succeed greatly, but none, in my opinion, score as high as chocolate doom. This is comming from a guy who loves the classic look, feel and gameplay that was meant to be... Thank you.
