Description
Doom is a 1993 computer game developed by id Software, and one of the seminal titles in the first-person shooter genre. Combining immersive 3D graphics with graphic violence, it became both controversial and immensely popular, with a shareware release version that is estimated to have been played by 15 million people. Beyond defining many gameplay elements of first-person shooters, Doom established a subculture by popularizing networked gaming and allowing player-created expansions called WADs. The game's success influenced the mid-1990s boom of first-person shooters to the degree that these games are sometimes known as "Doom clones".
The Doom franchise was continued with Doom II: Hell on Earth (1994) and numerous expansion packs, including The Ultimate Doom (1995), Master Levels for Doom II (1995), and Final Doom (1996). Originally released for PC/DOS, these games have subsequently been ported to various other platforms, including nine different game consoles. The series lost appeal as the Doom game engine became obsolete after the mid-1990s, but was revived with the 2004 release of Doom 3, a retelling of the original game using new technology, and a subsequent motion picture scheduled for release in 2005.
A Doom Source Port is a source port of the Doom engine, the game engine used by the computer game Doom. The term usually denotes a modification made by Doom fans, as opposed to any of the official Doom versions produced by id Software or affiliated companies.
