Talk:Doom

Reactions please? :>

It could be argued, obviously, that I have included way too much information for a reader who is (a) a gamer and (b) a regular Doom player. I think, however, that those people are probably going to ignore this column of Entryway entirely &mdash; they'll be looking for walkthroughs, editing help, or an LMP database.

Also, how the heck do I make a Cyrillic reversed "R" happen? Ryan W 04:50, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Open gucharmap, go to the cyrillic place and copy a Я. Ducon 05:06, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)

"It's green and pissed"
Does anyone have a source for this? I've never heard of this before. Fraggle 12:58, 20 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * answer is here. This was a name for Wolf3d, not Doom. Fraggle 13:02, 20 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Cruse vs. Cruise
Could anyone point me at the source of the mis-spelling of "Cruise"? -- Jdowland 15:24, 12 March 2006 (UTC)


 * OK I've found it. Now the question is, who introduced the error -- Carmack, or whoever typed up the question and answer session? If the latter, is it really worth dogmatically including the mistake in the quote? Or even the former? -- Jdowland 15:25, 12 March 2006 (UTC)


 * IMHO changing it would set a bad precedent. Just finding appropriate citations for articles is quite enough work for us without also having to second-guess their content every time.  This maybe isn't a good example, since it's a misspelling, but what about something like this?  We don't have any way of ever knowing "the truth".    Ryan W 16:20, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Different logo
Since this article is about the Doom that was released originally in 1993, may I suggest using this logo image instead? --Manc 03:33, 26 September 2006 (UTC)


 * The current logo will probably be deleted (unknown copyright status). I agree that the one you supply is more appropriate, but what licence is it available under? I'm not sure fair use will cut it, as it isn't directly from the game. To be honest, a titlepic screenshot would be best perhaps? -- Jdowland 13:49, 26 September 2006 (UTC)


 * There already is such a screenshot, further down in the article (unless that's a raw image, and therefore also should be replaced).   Ryan W 18:44, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Mention of commercial re-releases of the original game?
Seems noteworthy that 13 years later the original DOOM is still being revived. Recently released as a download for the latest gaming platform, the Xbox 360 (PS3? Wii?). Also re-released with DOOM 3 for the Xbox console (or, is this the same code emulated?).
