I did chuckle a bit when I read that! I'm hoping this is only in handheld mode! :lol:

What the utter strawberry float. :lol:

Why can't they get these ports right? I get they've fixed some issues but this is bad.

I mean it's not quite Ubisoft Tetris levels of bad, but it's not good.

Remember that's still a whopping 4x the native Doom resolution of 320x200 - people in 94 would have died for a hires mode like this! :lol:

The Switch is more than capable of churning out 1994 Doom at 60fps, regardless of how high they pump the resolution. There shouldn't need to be any trade-off for that. :lol:

Oh absolutely, no disagreements here. Technology from 20+ years ago can run Doom at higher resolutions than this! :lol:

Aubrey Hodges is the strawberry floating man. Did you ever listen to the extended OST released a few years back?

I already have Doom on PS4 but can't really say no to Doom II at that price, isn't Doom 3 cheap as chips too?

The last thing I need right now is more games I mean I've already got Dark Souls, Yooka Laylee and Spider-Man on the go and I've just bought Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair but I can't resist a bargain.

What's more I promised myself this year I'd stop buying games I didn't plan on playing right away... oh well.

Been Doom 3 and it's a great game, loving the horror elements here.

Doom 3 is fantastic, if you appreciate it for what it is. I love it but it doesn't have the same place in my heart as the first two games and I can understand the flack it got at the time for being different.

Another add-on mod Double Impact is now showing on all ports. Love all this free content from Bethesda

Not sure if Double Impact is one that I've played but I know it's well regarded. Will probably check it out if it's a new one to me.
