I originally bought this game when it was first released, and I was playing it on an Acer Pentium 133mhz, with 8 MB of RAM. I remember I had to buy a video daughter card before it would run. And even then, there was a glitch in the game near the end I couldn't finish it. It was so long ago I don't remember the glitch. I think some giant boss caused some problem.
Anyway, I was looking at the new Doom trailer and feeling nostalgic, so I opened Steam and saw this for like $1.50. "Fuck it," I thought to myself. I've been playing it.
It is delightfully old school. There's no reloading of weapons, there's no weight limitations so you can carry every weapon you find. Quick saves/reloads. Primitive graphics. Tiny game interface when you crank the resolution up.
I'm having a good time with it. I wonder if Doom 2 is on Steam.
