The Beauty Of The Beast

[Julian]

Carlos Bordeu let us know that DOOM has been selected by Gamespot as one of the ten best looking games ever.

[Crendowing]

Not another GameSpy "Top X" list.......

[Crendowing]

Whoops, not GameSpy....GameSPOT!!!!!!

[NiGHTMARE]

Bah, gamespot.co.uk is much better than gamespot.com :)

[Guest Lament]

Have you noticed that the games in that list get progressively worse?

[NiGHTMARE]

What? How can you possibly say that Ultima VII is worse than the 7th Guest?!?

No, you fail it, now go away and fnord.

[Crendowing]

Yes, I have.

[YicklePigeon]

Doom? Lifelike? What planet this single digit IQ person come from?!

Their description of Doom was very good imo. For example, this:

Doom isn't necessarily best known for its graphics. The game's notoriety stems mostly from its violent content, and its status as a computer gaming classic comes from its endearingly fast-paced action and its excellent multiplayer features. Doom even sounded fantastic--its arsenal of weapons, as well as its menagerie of demons, were every bit as impressive to listen to as they were to see.

The author hit a lot on the head there.

I always did like the sounds of doom. The sighting sounds for the Spider Mastermind and Baron are some of my favourites.

[kristus]

Yes Doom rocks.

Certainly is a good description. I personally think the satanic imagery helps the game a lot and the gameplay DOOM has is unrivaled.
