I'm more worried about how horrendous doomguy's head looks from the back. Why couldnt they hire good artists to make their covers?
>>
it looks like a decent port

maybe its just hard to find?

When Doom 2 came out nobody really gave a shit about the character they were playing. Of was just some dude fighting demons. Now they've added a bunch of stupid lore to the series and ruined it.

You mean this?

It's a pretty good port overall. It's not actually running the Doom 2 engine, but it feels very close to it and runs quite well.

Both Doom ports on GBA are good.

Why hasn't DOOM been ported to a microwave yet /v/? I'm sure there are models with displays that aren't stuck to numbers and powerful enough CPUs

>>345413112
They already did. Google Doom microwave.

Why the fuck would you port of to a microwave? That seems like the dumbest thing ever.

Doom 2 GBA actually uses a different engine. Doom 1 had a better engine with better controls and options.

Doom on GBA is actually more or less a straight port of the Jaguar version, which had Carmack helping it out. Plays like a charm on both platforms.

SNES Doom is better.
>>
>>345414915
SNES Doom is absolute garbage. 32X Doom plays much better.

PSX Doom is probably the best home port, seeing as Doom 64 is a different game.

I've got the GBA Duke Nukem 3D. That one is pretty solid too. Surprisingly so.
>>

>>345415840
The playability is what matters. SNES Doom is fundamentally a slow, choppy mess, and a true chore to play. Having kickass music and more levels can't fix that it's just not smooth or fast enough.

32X Doom, despite the missing levels and fart soundtrack, plays smoothly and quickly, and is more fun as a result. I'm pretty sure given an adequate amount of time, the 32X version could've had much better music and all the content, but the game was rushed to market. I'm glad they focused on making it playable though.

>>345416302
GBA actually had a pretty large number of FPS titles, many of which were pretty good. Ballistic Ecks Vs Sever was also really solid.
>>
no idea
>>345412431
>>345412841
it's not that good and has some pretty outstanding bugs

The level layouts are simplistic like you might expect, but they did a lot with a little, and introduced a new enemy or two.
>>
>>345411859
>>345412841
I also have it sitting around in my bin of old tech stuff, probably right next to my internal ZIP drive.

There's a million ways to play Doom II on a modern PC, let alone tons of other platforms, and you could get a GBA emulator, or even a flash cart, if you really wanted the same experience.
>>
>>345415434
Is PS doom even the same game?

I remember my friend having it and it was completely different from the one I had on pc.

Then again it was from Russia or something and we had to suspend the console upside down or it wouldn't read.
>>
>>345417551
It has additional levels which are on PC as the Plutonia was. Final Doom just had a shitload of content.
>>
>>345417551
ps doom has some more levels and neat lighting effects, it's mostly the same though
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNpho45LnhE
>>
>>345417926
Yea it has been years since I saw that one and I remember it being hard ass balls which definitely fits Plutonia
>>
>>345416937
it's still one of the few existing AND actually pretty good console "ports". Also a huge improvement from the Doom1's GBA port.

>>345416994
>>345416302
The GBA Doom 2 was actually remade on Duke Advance's engine. That's why it runs so relatively smooth.
