    Hi there,

    How many people still play the game and/or watched the movie, Doom?

    Jeff

    I host LAN parties, and Doom/Doom2 is part of our game rotation. We typically do Doom, Quake 3, Unreal Tournament, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Descent, and a few newer games. Being that we're all older, we like the earlier games best :)

    20forBeers BBS is hosting monthly DOOM WAN parties, they're a lot of
    fun. I'd forgotten how fast-paced it was and how small the levels were!

    First Saturday of the month, 6:00 PM PST. Load up Doomseeker and
    Zandronum, and look for 20forbeers. See you there!




    ... Did you find what you were looking for?

    Thanks. I may have to check it out. I'm more of a LAN guy though; it's quite amusing when you make a kill then see someone on the other side of the room stand up and curse :D

    Back when DOOM came out, I was working in an office with telephones with headsets. We'd make a 6-party conference call and jump into a DOOM
    deathmatch. This was in 1994, long before any of the modern tech that
    makes gameplay and collaboration possible.
