Shapeless Posted June 26, 2004 What do you think is the most recognizable monster from Doom 1-2 this isn't another what's your Favorite Monster thread. It's which one you think is the best Symbol of Doom I'm going to have to say the Pink Demon. because it's not only unique but if you show a picture of it the Average person. They will are most likly able to recognize it as Doom then any other monster. And the Lost soul wins the cake for the most generic design. it wouln't be hell without them, but they are biker cleashay. 0 Share this post Link to post
SYS Posted June 26, 2004 I's say the Imp is the most recognizable monster. The Lost Soul is the only doom Monster you'll see on the back of Hell's Angel's vests. Of course they call it they call it the death skull, but that's another story. 0 Share this post Link to post
Psyrus Posted June 26, 2004 The Imp or the Baron of Hell would be my choices. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cyb Posted June 26, 2004 yeah, probably the pink demon; it seems to be the one they always show on tv or in screenshots and such 0 Share this post Link to post
MasterOFDeath Posted June 26, 2004 imp, definitely imp. Doom just wouldn't be as great as it is today if it wasn't for our brown, horn convered friend. They are the symbol of doom. 0 Share this post Link to post

Graf Zahl Posted June 26, 2004 Cacodemon. It's the first thing you are going to see when starting Doom1 after all! 0 Share this post Link to post
Dron Posted June 26, 2004 The cacodemon's pretty damn famous to. The cacodemon almost stands for doom. 0 Share this post Link to post
Captain Red Posted June 26, 2004 Cyberdemon. It's on doom II cover for great justice!! 0 Share this post Link to post
Shapeless Posted June 26, 2004 i think the Demon, Barron and Cyberdemon stand out the most. but the imps were more common and are in almost every screenshot. 0 Share this post Link to post
stoned Posted June 26, 2004 This should be asked from someone who isn't a doom addict like us. :p 0 Share this post Link to post
188DarkRevived Posted June 26, 2004 Baron of Hell + Arachnotron + Mancubus. Period. No contest. 0 Share this post Link to post
Torn Posted June 26, 2004 It is either the imp, demon or the baron. Eg: the monsters you meet in episode1. 0 Share this post Link to post
killer9 Posted June 26, 2004 Cacodemon. The icon for both Doom and DoomII. 0 Share this post Link to post
doomaddict Posted June 26, 2004 All of the monsters in Episode 1 of DOOM. There are tons of people who have played the Shareware Episode but have never purchased the actual game. This applies for Quake and many other video games out on the market as well. For DOOM 2, I would have to say the Icon of Sin since DOOM newbies (like me, even though I know how to defeat the monster, but I still play all my fun at I'm Too Young To Die) are confused and unable to defeat the boss, and are probably asking for help on all the forums available on how to defeat it. 0 Share this post Link to post
killer9 Posted June 26, 2004 Haha, your kidding right? You press the icon walls to bring them down until you get to the top of the giant stairlike structure, then press the skull switch. The platform goes up, you press it down, stand on it, fire a rocket into it's head 3 or 4 times and you win. Really easy, I did it on HMP. 0 Share this post Link to post
doomaddict Posted June 26, 2004 I do know how to defeat the boss (I mentioned it in the last post). The problem is, many newbies do not know how. The only hard part for me is correctly aiming the rockets, but it isn't too hard. 0 Share this post Link to post
killer9 Posted June 26, 2004 Oops. I read that after I posted but it wouldn't let me delete it. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
doomaddict Posted June 27, 2004 It's sad that I suck at DOOM II, but if I couldn't defeat the boss monster after playing DOOM II for who-knows-how-long, that would probably get the DOOM Community laughing and making fun of me as though I am a complete moron(who knows, admitting that I stink at DOOM and being unable to win the game at a skill higher than I'm Too Young To Die after who-knows-how-long of DOOM play might get some people to make fun, but at least I am telling the truth). 0 Share this post Link to post
