If you’ve been waiting for an update to your favorite Hell-ravaging shooter from the 1990’s, now is your time! Whether you prefer 1993 original DOOM or its 1994 sequel, DOOM II, both games have been re-released on modern consoles and received a new quality-of-life update that brings the framerate up to a smooth, modern 60 frames per second (FPS). Along with this aesthetic change, the update has brought the ability to quick save your progress and play community-created content and add-ons. This content is available now wherever you own the DOOM and DOOM II re-releases.

When we saw Doom drop to $35.99 last week in Steam's 2016 Summer Sale, we thought there was no way a 2 month old top selling game could get cheaper on PC... Au contraire.

This week a new version of DOOM is released, and by all accounts it looks to capture the feel of the original. And really, if you've followed the mod scene at all for id's classic shooter, you know there's one out there called Brutal DOOM. From what we've seen of the new game, these two look very close in terms of style and substance.

He's had a long and impressive career in game development, but John Romero's name will always be associated with a cluster of old school titles centering around DOOM, Wolfenstein 3D, and Quake. Ok, and Daikatana, but we're all trying to forget about that one. Now, some 21 years after his last design, Romero has released a new map for DOOM And you know what? It's pretty darn good.

After watching Bethesda announce and showcase DOOM 4 at E3 this year, I got the itch to play the classic game again. From the looks of things, id is going back to a classic formula of speed and brutality over the slow and careful pace that DOOM 3 gave us.

The new DOOM was revealed last week at QuakeCON, with an event attendee only demonstration that showcased the new game. While we can't see what was shown, PC Gamer has some impressions of what was on display - and it sounds like the game is returning to the roots of arcade, over the top gore filled gameplay. But despite the fourth DOOM game coming, people are still playing and modding the original; which is still one of the greatest co-op games ever made.

We all know that co-op gaming was invented in 2003 by Al Gore. The back of that placemat in IHOP told us so. It turns out, however, that some really smart computer people managed to pull off some crafty multiplayer tricks back in the 1970s, creating some of the first video games with co-op modes. And then there's us, the spoiled gamers that we ...

Today is a special anniversary in the world of gaming. DOOM, the classic first person shooter franchise created by id Software has turned 20 years old. The game was released in a time and era before the internet was the internet, before you could look up or down in a shooter, and before CD-ROM drives.

John Carmack is a monster name in the gaming industry. He's a pioneer, a legend. John co-founded id software and help create such games as Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, QUAKE and many others. He's been a driving force in gaming for over 25 years, specifically in the area of 3D. So perhaps it shouldn't surprise us that he's leaving id Software to help with what foks are saying is the future of 3D gaming - the Oculus Rift.

"Welcome to the D&D World!" With these words, one of the all time greatest series of co-op games began. Chronicles of Mystara brings the classic brawling action from the 90s arcade right into your living room via digital download. How does the hack and slashing hold up today? Is there enough here to keep the interest of modern gamers?

One of the surprises from Capcom at PAX East will actually be an arcade port of two beloved beat em' up classics. Capcom will be porting both Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mystara and Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom to both the Playstation 3 and the Xbox 360 via the PSN and XBLA, respectively.
