Thank you for the impressions. Sounds like Panic Button did well.
Nice. I played all of these in the Doom 3 BFG edition leading up to the 2016 game's release, so I'm not quite ready to play these again yet, but I'll probably get them in the future.
I have doom 1 and 2 due to Doom 3 bfg.
Is there any reason to buy doom 1 or 2 separate on switch?

Here's a screenshot I took of it on PS4:
And what it usually looks like today when at 4:3:
I think they were trying to emulate the original resolution in 1993, but it just looks odd now on modern TVs.
Not to mention I'm also in the middle of repeated playthroughs of RE2 (first time doing hardcore mode) and DOOM 2016 lol.
Oh and I'm still working on BOTW at 605+ hrs :p
Gaming is good.
Nope, they don't. They are a bit stretched, so everything looks squeezed.
Holy shit that 3D scene outtro is amazing lol
edit oh my it's negativity all around, isn't it. I had absolutely no issues with the port, the stretchyness is minor, controls are fine after one level. Didn't notice slower music either, but that might be my mind playing tricks on me. I do think though some tracks sounded better on Gen Midi.

Got so excited by this I started taking photos in my studio:
Oh well, thanks for the info tho.

Did Doom 3 always have these hard pauses for Auto Saves? Its annoying on Switch when things just stop and an auto-save bar pops up. It looks like you can disable auto-saving in the menu's if it gets too annoying.
I was ready to write these off for later because it's motherfucking Fire Emblem day, but $5 a pop on Switch? I'm in. Don't think I'd have noticed the stretching.
Never played Doom 3 and might do it on a whim down the line at that price, but surprised that it's a 7.6GB download.

OK so I am incredibly excited to be able to play MOTHERFUCKING DOOM without homebrew on Switch BUT
why is the music speed incorrect? it honestly has this really weird effect of changing the game's mood for me because imo the music is such an integral part of the classic Doom experience

Just played docked for a bit and was thinking the same thing. We may have more accurate realtime lighting not, but for the look they were going for, its really effective and still impressive considering the age of the game.
That being said, framerate definitely has hitching at times. I'm not sure how the game handles streaming, but it feels like it has a hard time keeping up at times.
Gonna piss someone off here I'm sure but...
I don't really like the music in Doom 1 much.
Final Doom and Doom 64 was my jam.

Looks like it's not correctly darkening textures are they go into the distance too.
That was added in the BFG edition. The original didn't have auto save if my memory if correct.
What's the difference between Final Doom (ps1) and Doom 1 & 2 (this release)? I loved the music in Final Doom and still own it with a ps2 slim!
Pretty standard for a last gen game. Usually don't get much bigger than 15GB and early gen were around usually 3-4GB. 7.6GB is exactly the same as the Steam install I think.
Final Doom is two expansion packs for Doom 2 and the version you played had a more horror vibe, lighting and music.
This is vanila Doom 1 and Doom 2. Both of these have midi metal music and are lighter in tone. They also don't include Final Doom with this.
Yeah, I noticed that the game overall looks brighter than usual.
The first two games released on iOS and Android today. They're already available to buy.
They literally showed them on mobile phones in the DoomCon trailer.
BFG is a lesser version of the original Doom 3, but damn, impressed with doom 3 on switch right now.
I've been trying unsuccessfully to find it in the thread, so apologies in advance if this has been beaten to death already: Does this version of DOOM 3 have simultaneous flashlight and shooting or is like the original where it's one or the other?
EDIT: ^ so it is BFG?

Anyone play Doom3 on PS4 pro? Im sure it doesn't make a difference, but I'd like to hear impressions.
For Doom 1 and 2, yes, but you only have to do it once. After the initial log in you never have to do it again. Dunno if Doom 3 needs it.
Polygon is reporting these are on iOS but they're not on the NA store yet at least. Anybody?
thanks.
thanks.
Good to hear. Is it 4K?
I wonder how it is on PS4 Pro.
You are welcome.
Doom 3 has the option to log in, but its not required. I was able to play through the intro without having logged in first. After I went back to the main menu, I dug up my password and logged in. Didn't seem to make a difference either way.
