Legendary Doom game for Sony PlayStation. The game, in fact, includes two games Doom (Ultimate Doom) and DOOM II. We have to play for the nameless fighter of the space special forces, although he has some other names in him: DoomGuy, Doom Trooper, Doom marine, as well as Flynn Taggart, John Grimm or simply Reaper. In the literal sense, we have to go through hell. As a result of the experiment being conducted on Mars, the gates were opened either to hell, or to the other world, or to another planet. In other matters it does not matter. All workers of the "laboratory" were killed or turned into zombies. We have to survive and return home.

The game has a good arsenal of weapons, a wide variety of enemies, and uneasy levels with labyrinths and secret places.To port the Doom game to the PSX game console, a advanced game engine with Atari Jaguar was used. In many aspects, the game has become better, in particular, changes have touched on graphics and lighting. Compared to the PC version, some maps were changed, their geometry was changed. Basically, this was done to increase productivity (increase FPS). There are new secret cards and maps from the version of Atari Jaguar. In Doom for PSX, there are two enemies, Arch-vile and Icon of Sin. Their absence is compensated by new enemies.
