It was the early to mid-90’s and Doom had been around for nearly a year. My first experience of Doom was from a copied shareware disc and copying was actively encouraged. It was 10 th December 1993 when id Software, fresh from their success with Wolfenstein 3D unleashed the first third of Doom for free in the form of shareware. This isn’t your usual journalistic hyperbole to state, but it is safe to say that the gaming landscape would’ve been a whole lot different if a certain first person shooter hadn’t exploded itself onto the scene in 1993 Now a new generation of players have the opportunity to experience the awesomeness of the game that started it all.

With id Software’s latest Doom game due for release in November and having recently celebrated a 25 th anniversary, Bethesda released the original Doom titles on current gen hardware.
