Well, for such a great game, despite its age, I think it was a good spending

Personally, though, I prefer to also download a mod that enhances the graphics a bit but disable most enhancements, because when I run it natively, it's extremly slow due to crappy Windows XP/7 DOS emulation and I don't want to have to run it through DOSBox.

I had to spend a long time to find acopy at the store.I don't think the graphics of doom really matters, it's manily the game play that makes it so great. I think that speed is more important and it might be wisse to use dosbox.
And also is anyone here a master speed runner? Can anyone run episode one of Doom1 in UV  in less then 10 min?

True, At the time I didn't want to try bothering with DOSbox setups, although I should probably do so, next time. It didn't have the same feel with the graphics enhancements. I hate when people bashes a game only because it doesn't have graphics like Crysis. Graphics don't make a game.

Sadly I'm not a speedrunner. I am curious as well if other people here are? Does it includes tool-assisted speedrunning, no damage runs or just regular?

here are my two most favouritist doom mods ever!
Megaman 8-bit Death Match
8-bit megaman in 3D! need i say more? YES(it's that good)! there is online multiplayer as well as a singleplayer mode. one can play as any of the robot masters (plus roll, protoman, the other usual suspects) and use the weapons one typically gains from those masters(airman's airshot, cutman's scissor boomerang thing, bombman's... well duh). it is the coolest.

Megaman! ORLY? I must give this a try!

holy crap how in the world do you do megaman?

I loled at that. I read it as: "holy crap how in the world do you megaman?" overlooking the second "do" in the sentence.

Also, wasn't doom 3 the newest one in the series? Which ever game is the newest one in the series had my cousin drooling. He said the graphics were hella smexy and that it was oober hard.

*edit*
@DjOmni: I setup Dosbox a while ago, and it was actually alot easier than I expected. I was pleseantly surprised.
@The game:I'm not very good at most first person shooters, so I've never attempted to speed run one. Platformers are more my department for that sort of thing, and RPGs. =)

Mah favorite gun in Doom is BFG

I like the pistol you start with xD

rickroller mod...I gotta try that

Nice. Who knew that song could be so lethal?
