Doom isn't ment for the gameboy

I got this game as a present for my little brother but decided to have a go myself at it, I used to play alot of doom and doom 2 on the pc but this gameboy version does nothing for the original pc version.

The small screen and terrible lighting make this game almost impossible to see, by time you realize there is a bad guy in front of you its too late he already has got a few shots on you. Doom is a great game, buts its not for the gameboy, it needs to remain on a big screen, were you can see what your doing. The gameboy is a fantastic game system but something just are not compatible, in this case two positives make a negative, its a shame.

1 Star

This game is awsome.Get it. The graphics are the best considering it's a little screen in your palm. Limited weapons, pretty stupind AI, but all we wanna do is blow the demons up anyways. It should be rated Mature, though.

Let me just start out by saying how much I supremely enjoyed this game. I'm a doom veteran and this game hits the spot. The graphics are mindblowing, I wish I could see them on a bigger screen (You listening Nintendo?). Your jaw drops when you realize that the game's amazing sound is coming out of that one little speaker. The only bad thing about this game is the fact that they took away the two bosses at the end of some stages. Other than that this game is perfect, whether you've played the original or not. I'll tell you plain and simple buy it or you're in for a BIG dissapointment.

From an original Doom player, great game

Let me just say "Wow!" I can't believe they fit Doom into a GBA format! If you've played the game in the olden days, then you'd know how much a nostalgic experience it is when you play this. It was fun then and it is fun now (especially being about to hook up GBA's and play deathmatch or co-op). Slight problems, like how pixlated the enemy gets at a distance. The sound from the original game has seem to have ported over well. The music (which I can't really remember from the PC version) is fine. The controls are the best for what you can do for a GBA. Good game, good fun...

Would be better if you could see

Doom mimics the computer game fairly well, but the game is so dark that you can only play it in direct sunlight. I prefer these type of games where stratagy is more important than reflexes and Doom is true to this form. Only I have eye strain from trying to see what is going on.

Perfectuality

I would like to make a correction to a previous review ...in a review with David A. Palmer, the people porting the game to the GBA, they said that it contained several new levels, 4 to be exact. That means that there are 28 levels *PLUS* 8 death match levels.I've seen tons of screenshots, and it looks way better than Dark Arena or Ecks vs. Sever. I AM GOING TO BUY THIS.

I think they did a good job on this one considering it is a Hand Held Game. Graphics are OK and gameplay is fun. The Sound effects kinda suck but I didn't expect them to be top notch. Overall I gave it 4 Stars because the replay value is high and it's a fun game but nothing thats great enough for 5 stars.

Dark Doom on a dark display

I don't know what the other rewievers are writing about, but this is the worst Doom Port. The GBA has the speed, you need for doom, but not the Display. Its mostly dark brown on light black on a non illuminated display - you just can guess what happens. You can only play through, when you know the levels from the original PC-Version (for goods sake they copied the automatic map feature). There are only very few changes for better gameplay on the GBA, such as no moving bridge in Part 1 level 3. Also you can only save after you completed a level. I couldn't find the multiplayer in the menu, but maybe its only visible when you attach a link cable. If you want a really god Doom Port on a Handheld, try the free versions for Pocket PC.

doom is the best game ever
