    I would recommend any Doom fan give Doom 64 a try if they missed it the first time around, and in some ways it’s become my favourite Doom game. For me, it scratches that simple classic Doom itchthat Doom Eternal can sometimes lack, and does so with a unique visual style and atmosphere that makes it feel fresh, whilst also aping my early memories of Doom.

    Doom 64 is a game from 23 years ago, but even though 3D has changed a lot over the years, it's still a lot of fun and the new HD textures look gorgeous. Its format is perfect for short and intense games, especially on Nintendo Switch.

    DOOM 64 deserves another bite at the apple, not least because it presents a clever and atmospheric twist on the classic DOOM formula that was previously thought lost to time. Able to stand on its own merits, DOOM 64 comes highly recommended to fans of both DOOM and retro shooters at large.

    For all its frustrations and occasional steep difficulty jumps, DOOM 64 delivers exactly what it promises, and the added bonus of slightly more content than before coupled with the ability to play the game without getting a thumb blister makes it a great choice for anyone who can't get enough of the Doomguy's slaughter.

    Doom 64 returns after 23 years to show youngsters how a space marine can slay hordes of demons.

    Technically solid port of a 23 year old shooter. The once N64 exclusive episode can’t keep up with modern retro shooters, but still delivers a lot of fun.

    Something that hasn’t aged quite as well are the shooting galleries. The enemy spawns feel too abundant on some levels, causing the gunplay to get a bit too monotonous. This is especially true on 'The Lost Levels' which are brand new bonus missions meant to connect “old” Doom to “new” Doom, but end up overstaying their welcome.

I've been a Doom fan from the very start. I was 23 back in 93, so the gore/horror thing never bothered me (not that there's much gore in this one).

    This is a direct follow up to Doom 2 from the PC or Ultimate Doom from the PS1/ Saturn. It uses a true 3D engine this time (accept for the scaled sprites). It also has Aubrey Hodges doing the soundtrack (so If you loved the PS1 soundtrack you'll love this one).

    There has only ever been one gripe that I have ever had with Doom 64. It doesn't have the reload animation's for both the shotgun and the super shotgun from the PC originals and the console versions of Ultimate Doom (I really hoped they would add it to this as they have added it to brutal doom 64). Apart from that, everything is hunky dory. The game even runs at 60 fps vs 30 fps of the N64 original.

    I'm hoping they add the PS1 original as an optional extra for this one. They have been adding PC Wads to Doom and Doom 2 on the PS4 and PS1 Doom would be a wonderful extra for Doom 64.    … Expand

The 3D aspect of the game makes the game look nicer and makes the movement and gameplay more smooth. Environments were more varied than other Doom games, which I like. Guns were also very cool, only expanding on what the previous Dooms did. Length of the game is also pretty good, if you take your time finding the secrets and stuff, it is not a super super short game, which a lot of the arena shooter and FPS's like this often fall short on.… Expand

    Worth playing if you are a Doom fan. Not as good as Doom 1 and 2, but it has most of the same classic gameplay. This one was pretty puzzle-yWorth playing if you are a Doom fan. Not as good as Doom 1 and 2, but it has most of the same classic gameplay. This one was pretty puzzle-y and the maps got huge late game. The visuals were impressive for an old game. The drawback of this game is that it gets kinda repetitive and boring after awhile because of the lack of new enemies and gameplay mechanics.… Expand
