Blimey, that's one hell of a lens flare overdose.

Heh. I just downloaded Doom Legacy. Thanks, Rode  ;)

I haven't played Doom for a long time, but I like going back once in a while for small doses. Most games I play get boring after a while, but Doom has held up pretty well..

Sylpher

I always liked Duke as far as the older FPS go.. but Wolfenstein still has a special spot in my heart.. Doom was just to 'Figure out how the hell to get from point A to Point B cause we aren't gonna help you"

While on the subject of FPS I have been playing Outlaws again (The spaghetti western FPS LEC made) And it really is an under-rated game.

It has some of the best puzzle work in a FPS (Which besides HL I guess that isn't saying much) But as well the story is right up there with adventure games.. The characters are greatly played out cliches and it just rocks..

So play it damnit!

Rincewind

Yeah, Doom is a classic, although I never really was a big fan of it.

But I must say that Sylper is absolutely right - Play Outlaws!
It's my absolute favourite among the first person shooters, not only because I love the graphic style and the overall, grim, Sergio Leone-mood of it, but also as Sylph says, it has a story that is different from the ordinary "save planet from hungry zombies or else you'll die"-type of plot...  
And then the music... Ooh... Just incredible...
And oh, did I mention you get to light dynamites with you cigar, alá Clint Eastwood as well? Doesn't that just say it all, eh?  

Besides Outlaws there are two fps that I have really enjoyed:
Shadow Warrior(I mean, come on - You get to be a NINJA!1!11) and Redneck Rampage(Drunk alien hillybillies with shotguns - Can it get any better?)...
The rest of them I don't really care about... Hehe... :)

Wooo, now that I have legacy I want to play doom, can any give me a copy of the doom.wad or doom2.wad? My player skin was switched to that stupid "X marks the spots" because It used to lag when I played it on serial network & I installed hell on earth.wad to doom2 and altered it forever. Can anyone help me out?

Its not Warez cause I have the game I just messed it up with mods and other wads.

I don't know if it's technically warez anyway.. I believe they made Doom Open-source (which is what prompted all the fan-made additions).  Even if it's not, doesn't the shareware .wad work as well?

Ishmael

I had doom2.wad uploaded ;D But I'm not sure anymore...

* TK checks

Yeah, not anymore... I'll upload 'em today or tomorrow, k? ;D

I do. It rox!!! It's honestly better than many of today's games (*cough* C&C Renegade *cough*)

I loved Heretic & Hexen, especially Hexen 2.  That game rocked.  So did Blood.  I've never had a chance to play Blood 2, though.

Hexen 2 ares r0x0r too. I somehow like the appearance of Eidolon... And Death of course ;D The puzzle system was nice. I spent hours trying to figure out how to get past the nine floor tiles to get one of the canopic jars  ::)

Odd... I'll see what might be wrong...

You can download doom1 and 2 from http://www.abandonware-france.org/ too. Of course, you can only download these if you own the game :)

The doomsday program is great. It makes doom look better than quake 2 in 1024x768 resolution, and with the enabling of mouselook and sidestrafing, you OWN the monsters. I'm going to have so much fun with this.
Those who can, do, and those who can't brag about how they do it at least fifty times a day somewhere on the internet.

I couldn't find d&d2 in there, but it's maybe just that I don't understand france... eh... the language.... but I found this: http://home.t-online.de/home/s.topf/d.html

You can get Blood 2 from The Underdogs, although I'd recommend finding someone stupid enough to have bought it and get them to burn you a copy instead.

I got Hexen on CD, if anyone wants the WAD file for it, lemme know.

Ishmael

Is there anything I can run it with? Can ZDoom run it? I WANT! ;D

Doomsday will run Heretic and Hexen perfectly, not sure if Legacy or ZDoom will though.
