Doom was one of the SNES games to use the Super FX 2 chip in the cartridge, dunno if it has anything to do with that.

But it's also fucking Doom so it's pretty evident why it's red.

Imagine if the industry had the same standards for PC development then as they do now. Every version of the game would have crab walking enemies and 2/3 the level count at most.

I remember hearing id Software had a few issues with Nintendo during this period.

id gave the devs of Super 3D Noah's Arc access to one of their engines as a fuck you to Nintendo since the game was unlicensed.

$100 Canadian right?

If not then how the fuck did a game like Maximum Carnage go for that much? I mean I know that games were more expensive back then but the $100 ones usually had special chips or a large ROM size. I don't think a game like MC had anything like that

Canadian yeah, but even back then that was ridiculous for a game, most new games in the early 90s were anywhere from 30-80 dollars, not counting taxes
>>
>>337622000
Look up retr0brite.

It can help a lot, but the best way to fix the problem is to repaint the SNES.
>>
>>337622000
There's some solution you can mix up and soak the pieces in. Read about it some years ago, so I don't remember what all it entailed. Probably wouldn't be too hard to look it up.
>>
So is brutal doom good or no? It looks hectic
>>
>>337620107
Because its not meant to be Doom, its like Shadowarrior but actually more crazy.

>>
>>337622792
It's some pretty fun balls-to-the-wall action but it ruins the level design because the game wasn't designed around the abilities it gives you, and you're pretty overpowered unless you up the difficult so much that imps are practically one-hitting you. Treat it like NG+ or stuff like Julius mode in Aria of Sorrow; if you haven't played the vanilla game, do that first.
>>
>>337622792
It's fun, but not "Original doom but better", it makes changes that stray from the core gameplay.

>>337618510
brutal doom is kind of cool, but it's disconcerting that some people hold it up like it's the definitive, modern version of the game or something
a lot of people are probably having their first doom experience with it which is pretty awful

Yeah the lady that was in charge of porting the game over hired a metal band to come in and record the soundtrack specifically for the 3DO version. The fucked that poor woman over by telling her it was just going to be a simple port.

Interesting read on Kotaku and gives some really good insight as to why the 3DO port was sooooo fucking terrible but had one of the best DOOM soundtracks.

>>
>>337622792
Pretty much what this anon said >>337623202

And I'll just add that one of the features it gives is the ability to jump. That feature alone REALLY breaks the gameplay. There are a lot of levels that have a small window showing you a red key or something you need to open a door that's right next to you. So you get idea that you need to find a way to fight to the key and make your way back. But with the jump ability you literally just hop up, grab the key, jump back over and you exit the level.

That's not even the rage powerups or finishing moves they give you. So as a novelty it's fun as hell especially if you have a lot of experience playing DOOM. It gives you new ways to power through levels and feel like a badass. But as an actual game it gets boring pretty fast because of just how OP you are.

Most people will say use hydrogen peroxide, which does work okay enough, but check out pic related. It paints on and is more effective in artificial UV light like a black light. 36 hours and the yellow is gone. It's far more convenient than dealing with a fish tank and the weather.
