Ugh, 25?! I am getting old. I remember being a wee kid and getting our first PC in the family. An older kid down the street’s dad was a software developer and brought me over a bunch of games. I remember getting DOOM, DOOM 2, Wolfenstein 3D and the original XCOM. Mind blowing stuff at the time, seeing as I was only used to NES/SNES/GB.
@commentlife I remember that feeling of seeing Doom for the first time too. Mind blowing is exactly how to put it
Will they summon real demons on stage?
Where's this goin to b...?
I bet this is where they are going to announce their next unannounced Switch game.
@PBandSmelly they should do that and get all the DoomSlayer cosplayers together to fight them. I'd watch it to see how it ends.
Quake is dead.
At least we still have DOOM.
Until Bethesda dies after it releases a bunch more crappy buggy online only games that don't work.
@Thorthegreat12 That would be a great idea. An HD version of Doom 64 would be amazing.....
@BANJO One of the producers said there’d be surprises for Switch there. Only a few days to go till we see. Doom 64 would be fantastic!
@BANJO You guys are going to get my hopes up, haha.
@Thorthegreat12 Watch it be the Commander Keen mobile game.
@Thorthegreat12 Really, so something Switch related should be announced. I will have to keep an eye on the presentation then.
@Grumblevolcano Haha. YES!
@BANJO Check this one out. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/06/bethesda_might_have_more_surprises_for_nintendo_switch_owners_in_the_future
@Thorthegreat12 Looks hopeful then. Although it could be something minor...
Not long to wait to find out now!!
@BANJO Well we got something along the lines of Doom 64. I was really surprised with this shadow drop. Hopefully the 64 port will come along soon.
@Thorthegreat12 Yes a great shadow drop. I played through the first two episodes of Doom last night. Will try and do the third today... Have you seen this :
