hervoheebo Posted August 30, 2010 9. Bill Gates Doom C'mon. Isn't that just he and his face superimposed on the game for promotional purposes? And with invincibility no less. 0 Share this post Link to post
Captain Toenail Posted August 30, 2010 Apart from Megaman and the Mecha mod their list is a bit dated, have they even looked at other recent mods? 0 Share this post Link to post
Phobus Posted August 30, 2010 I'm amused that all of the coolest mods are the ones that make it not Doom :P And I'd swap Bill Gates for the Aliens TC (or the Aliens Doom I have) in such a list. 0 Share this post Link to post
Whoo Posted August 30, 2010 I love how 80% of the mods they chose are mods that are based off of TV shows, movies, or other games. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mithral_Demon Posted August 30, 2010 Of all TC's made, I'd like to see a Perfect Dark one (based on 64 fyi). But this list is kinda bland to my taste x-x 0 Share this post Link to post
Jodwin Posted August 30, 2010 Alboroto said:Comment :) There's no Action Doom 2. That alone invalidates any "top Doom mod" list (still, at least it does have Batman Doom which definitely deserves a place in the list). 0 Share this post Link to post

My unfinished, badly-broken-in-recent-ZDoom-versions giant robot mod made this list? Why that of all things and not something else?! 0 Share this post Link to post
Philnemba Posted August 30, 2010 Alboroto said:Comment :) Chex Quest, Action Doom 2 and Harmony should have been on the list. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted August 30, 2010 Cybie isn't on the list. Insta-fail. Also, I recall there was an actual Bill Gates mod that replaced Cacodemons with floating Bill Gates heads....or maybe I'm confusing it with the Bill Clinton one. Then there's always Mars Wars.... 0 Share this post Link to post
Technician Posted August 30, 2010 That CheapAlert mod where he drew - very detailed - penis on the monsters. 0 Share this post Link to post
esselfortium Posted August 31, 2010 Did they pick 10 TCs and/or ZDoom wads at random, or..? There's no article, just a list of the top 10 "best Doom mods". Best what? What are they the best at? Nearly all of the choices are hugely contestable, with one of them not even being a Doom mod, and there's no explanation behind any of the choices to persuade anyone of their verisimilitude. 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted August 31, 2010 No mention of the Army of Darkness TC, Massmouth, Sonic Robo Blast 2 or ZanZan - amongst others. Probably the work of a junior staffer who was to lazy to do much more than grab a random sample of Doom-related YouTube videos. 0 Share this post Link to post

I agree with everything other than the 'junior' part - the site barely looks better than one of those automatically generated spam sites on a squatted domain. The likelihood that anybody associated with that site has played Doom in the last 15 years, let alone any of those mods, is less than 1%. 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted August 31, 2010 Man I must not have been paying attention to the doom community for a while now. I haven't played ANY of those mods save for Batman Doom and Action Doom. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cutman Posted August 31, 2010 I dunno I think this is fairly accurate list HYUK HYUK HYUK! I don't think this list is serious in any shape or form, pointing out that they're wrong isn't worth the effort. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted August 31, 2010 At least it had Action Doom, though I'm disappointed there was no Action Doom 2. 0 Share this post Link to post
Varis Alpha Posted August 31, 2010 This list blows. Why choose such a random amount of wads in such random categories with even more random gameplay videos? Only two or three wads listed there is worth one's time. All else can go die in a fire. 0 Share this post Link to post
Creaphis Posted August 31, 2010 Cutman said:I don't think this list is serious in any shape or form, pointing out that they're wrong isn't worth the effort. Right. This list obviously isn't written from a Doomer's perspective. It's just, "Hey, you remember that Doom game back from when you were a kid? Here are ten waaaaacky things it's been made into." It's not worth getting up in a huff about. 0 Share this post Link to post

Hi, I'm esselfortium, you may remember me from BIG WORDS. Whenever you take any subculture or community, especially one as esoteric as Doom, any attempts by the outside to critique or categorize will be seen as uninformed or wrong because the insiders perceive quality very differently. This article wasn't written for doomers. It's like how an electrical engineer might find a problem with a list of great electronics that included "the clapper." 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted August 31, 2010 Looks like they just did a Youtube search and posted the ones that caught their interest. 0 Share this post Link to post
