If you enjoyed Doom 1 and 2, this one takes it into a very dark direction. When I first played it as a kid, I thought it was just going to be Doom 1 on the N64, but little did I know that this was an all new Doom made just for the Nintendo 64. I felt really spoiled since all my friends had just ports of the first two games while I had an all new one. All the maps were new, there was a new laser weapon, all the graphics were revamped and MUCH nicer than the old Dos Dooms. The game atmosphere was much spookier, I remember this game giving me nightmares as I hadn't really played a game like it. The look of the game is more reminiscent of Quake than Doom, but everything still FEELS like Doom. The only thing I hated was the way the game saved. It saved to a controller pack, but it didn't save any weapons you had, and you start at the beginning of each level. If you die in the game, you lose ALL your weapons except your pistol and start at the beginning of the level. For people like me who play without cheats, this was frustrating. Still a great game, none like it. If you like Doom, you gotta check out the Nintendo 64 one!Read full review
One of the Best FPS games for N64. It has a good 64 frames per second refresh rate, and very good graphics for N64 standars, even though it does not use expansion pak. Its spooky, and gory. Very few frames movements for enemies, but I think it suits the game better. Only complain is a dark pit in a stage were its ilogically hard to survive and climp up. And the last boss is to hard. No unlockable features, no look up, and no Randnet keyboard+mouse support. Its a buy, not a rent. Go fetch it now
DOOM 64 Ive played all the (official) Doom games & a few non official pc mods. For "single player This is the Best Console Doom game" and heres why, (1)The 30 levels are all exclusive. No rehash. (2)All the monsters with the exception of the final boss are original Doom Monsters. A few are redrawn but with nice horrific Doom Quality. (3)The guns with the exception of one "new gun" are remodelled versions of the classic Doom guns & look pretty stunning. (4)They used prerendered & lighted sprites for the monsters, this makes them look as good or better than ever for 2D sprites. (5)To make the levels this was the first use of what ended up being the N64 quake engine but the levels look much better than quake 64. (6)This game runs the highest amount of enemies on the screen at once for a console Doom game. Nice points, You can save the game to a memory card or use codes to continue from where you left off. You dont have to have the N64 expansion pak to play. This is one of the few games N64 that had me disagreeing with the common saying "N64 is a little kids console" This game is not for little kids it is rated M - Mature for a good reason. My numerical ratings 1-10 higher is better. Game Play 9 the N64 controller is the weakest point of this game But you can set the configuration any way you prefer. This game runs Very smooth & fast! Graphics 8 this game looks really good but still suffers a little from the N64 blur that was so common. This is a 10 year old game & still looks good. No N64 expansion pak needed. Sound 10 as good as it gets on N64 Fun Factor 9.5 This can be a hard game but has several difficulty settings. If you like classic Doom this is fun & refreshing with the new levels! If you like Doom or "busy FPS" games then Doom64 is a must play. If your ideal of a great FPS consists of sneaking around & hiding behind boxes.. then go hide behind a box, this game may be too much for you.) I rate this as one of if not the best N64 game. Doom64 comes at you like a ton of bricks at times. A "Mature rated" Monster blasting good time Doom64 was by far the most intense console FPS in its Day and still rivals all. This is a low priced & under rated game. Have a good day & have Fun.Read full review
this a a game i have been hunting down for years,i have always loved this game and most of the doom games as well. this one is fun on the rom for your computers, but it is little less awkard with n64 controller, the game play is much harder then i thought, much more levels then doom 1 or 2. th addition of new guns i nice and its just a good game to have for your n64 collection. now there are some bad things about this game, unlike doom 1 and 2 this game is dark.... like you cant see anything past your hands, so cheats are needed. the boss is too hard unless you spent time looking for 3 relics. there are not that many secret levels. witch is yes, sad. but if your a true doom fan this game is fun, more hardcore then the first two games. and the controller is little awkward, this game is sure to challenge you for some time, but then again you just may get mad at it and never play it again, yes i get boring once you die for the tewntey millionth time.Read full review
I found this game used a while back and I have to say its the most incredibly creepy game i've ever played. The weapons are absolutely sweet ranging from the double bladed chainsaw to the devastating BFG9000 and the new weapon which I have to say I took a liking to almost instantly. The new weapon being a powerful laser cannon which can be powered up through secret means. The Doom Bible stated it as being called the Unmaker. The new monster models are, in my opinion more clever than those of the PC and generally make the monsters appear more ferocious and deadly. Some of my personal favorite models include the Baron of Hell, the Arachnotron, and the Cyberdemon to name a few. Overall, this game is a classing and if you consider yourself a Doom fan you owe it to yourself to track this one down and since you're here that won't be difficult ;)Read full review
