Anyone that has been playing video games since the days of the original Doom know things have changed. A Lot. What was once common place, and free, is now locked behind a paywall of some sort.

Wacky Wednesday: The “Doom”ed Trilobyte
February 15th, 2017 Michael Crisman Prior to the 1990s, people looked at the IBM PC as a joke of a gaming machine. Long diskette load times, clunky processor speeds, and a choice of CGA or EGA graphics were no match for the fast-moving sprites of the NES or arcade-quality graphics of the Sega Genesis. But 1990 saw the release of […]

Phantasy Star III Generations of Doom Ignores Classic Formula on Sega Genesis – July 25th, 1991 – Today in Video Game History
July 24th, 2016 Carl Williams When the Sega Genesis was released, Sega was pretty much operating on a clean slate.

Interplay probably took a large chance on this one as it is a completely new intellectual property. Couple that with the “newness” of the PlayStation (Sony’s first console) and it is quite a gamble.

Solve the Grandfather Paradox in Doom within Doom Mod
July 18th, 2015 Carl Williams Okay, this is a rather funny/unique mod to be writing about, especially after the announcement that a “selfie stick” was added to id Software’s classic Doom title.

The Vectrex Goes to Hell with Doom Port

February 16th, 2015 Carl Williams When id Software created Doom they intentionally left it open so that fans could update the game with new levels and enemies.
