Doom 64

"You'll spend more time turning up the brightness on you TV then playing this game!"

What do you get when you combine no replay value with ugly graphics and no plot? Doom 64. This game pales in comparison to other FPS mainly because it has no multiplayer and plot. Maybe it is smart to leave the brightness on your TV how it is when you play this. That way, you won't have to see this game's ugly graphics.

Graphics: 2/10
The least they could've done was made the enemies 3D. The enemies still look like they're alive when they're dead. Also, this game is very, very dark, so you definetly should turn up the brightness on your TV. The guns don't look realistic at all and the textures are dull and are very similar. The level design is very bad also. Most of the levels are rearranged versions of each other.

Sound: 5/10
Average stuff. You will eventually stop paying attention to the sound.

Plot: 1/10
You kill monsters while running around grabbing colored keys to open colored doors. Wow. They should make a movie out of that!

Gameplay: 1/10
Yawn. I was watching my friend play this and I fell asleep. Seriously I did. This game lacks the multiplayer mode of other FPS. The one player mode is repetitive and gets old fast. It is a waste of time and a bad one too.

Replay Value: 0/10
Trust me, if you actually play this game long enough to beat it, you will never ever want to touch it again.

Buy or Rent: Neither
If you want to waste $3 and have never played this game or series, then I guess you should rent it if you like turning up the brightness on your TV. Only buy it if it costs less than $5 and the money is going to charity.

This waste of a cartridge should never have been made. It is a very good doorstop though.
