Linguica Posted October 10, 2001 The Doomguy seems to have a pretty heinous sunburn there. 0 Share this post Link to post
Arioch Posted October 10, 2001 Not surprising that you'd start looking a bit roasted in those conditions :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Guest Excalibur_Z Posted October 10, 2001 Ah Hellchick, is there anything she can't do? I'm glad this is POTD, because I've always had a few questions about this picture: 1. Which gun is he using? 2. Who's the guy in the distance and whatever happened to him? =P 3. Assuming that's a Cybie by his feet, why is it so small? 4. How do we even know that's The Doomguyâ„¢? =) Actually just the first question is relevant. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest sryx Posted October 10, 2001 I may be off here but when useing the puch in doom arn't your hands bare?(whats with the gloves?) :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest j00 equals ded Posted October 10, 2001 Gun he;s using is most relevant to the plasma rifle. Probably coop. But damn, this is the finest artwork for a box I have ever seen in my whole life. That guy in the distance is truely symbolic, and such a thing cannot be surpassed. Probably because he's stuck in some mud. Because he's receiving the most attention. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Excalibur_Z Posted October 10, 2001 Yeah and where's that spiked ring that he uses with the Ol' Left Hookâ„¢? 0 Share this post Link to post
Archon Posted October 10, 2001 He always used to have a shotgun in his left hand?? Where'd that go? These modern Doomguys just aren't what they used to be.. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Jonathan Posted October 10, 2001 This is the same artwork as was used on the first copy of Doom 1 I bought, its pretty sweet. He wasn't holding a shotgun in that picture either. I always figured the monsters by his feet were barons, despite the gun arm one of them has. 0 Share this post Link to post
PuPz Posted October 10, 2001 Tbad this was my potd last month, although not as good of a scan. Copycats. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted October 10, 2001 1. Which gun is he using? Supposedly the chaingun, since it fires bullets. 2. Who's the guy in the distance and whatever happened to him? =P That's a great guy.. My coop partner. :p 3. Assuming that's a Cybie by his feet, why is it so small? Notice how the doomguy is staning further up? Although, that looks more like a baron than a cyb though.. ;) 4. How do we even know that's The Doomguyâ„¢? =) He's the one that kicks assâ„¢. 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted October 10, 2001 Bah. they didn't include the whole pic... 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Excalibur_Z Posted October 10, 2001 Yeah there's a lot missing. A large poster came with Ultimate Doom, and I'd say that this is only 2/3 of the complete image. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Matrikz Posted October 10, 2001 I still think the scene you see when you boot up good ol' Dos DooM is better than this cartoony stuff. Also, look at his eyes - he's pretty darn serene for a guy who's about to get his arm ripped off by a large, carnivorous minor demon. 0 Share this post Link to post
Arioch Posted October 10, 2001 All of you whining about the box art need to keep in mind, this is the same picture used on the box for the original Doom. 0 Share this post Link to post
Hyena Posted October 10, 2001 Only for Gameboy Advance, huh? Heh. Some hard work has been put into this. "Hellchick" must have spent more than two minutes working on this masterpiece. 0 Share this post Link to post
Hyena Posted October 10, 2001 Only for Gameboy Advance. Oh, and: - PC - Linux - Macintosh - SNES - Sega Genesis - Atari Jaguar - Palm Pilot Am I missing any? 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted October 10, 2001 I think some of you are missing the point of this kind of artwork. Things are not exactly the same that you find in the game. Those monsters on the pic are MOST likely not supposed to resemble any specific Doom character, they probably just illustrate the monsters in the game in general as being hellish. 0 Share this post Link to post
ViperBoy Posted October 10, 2001 I don't recall seeing any Barons Of Hell with a gun attached to it's arm ? 0 Share this post Link to post
NightFang Posted October 10, 2001 heeey...is that a BFG the other doomguy is holding in the distance? 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted October 10, 2001 Looks more like a K&H Mp5. The besides, BFG is much bigger. 0 Share this post Link to post
