Talk:Sony PlayStation

Is it just me or doesn't the sentence "Sound-effects don't use different sound effects, which were reused in Doom 64" make any sense? Janizdreg 03:38, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Rocket launcher bug
I won't remove these images now, but please note that in most cases a sequence of still frames does not establish that a bug exists (example). Someone with a Playstation and a DVR would have to create a "demo". Ryan W 17:30, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

PSX Doom demo disc?
I remember that I saw someone selling a disc which supposedly was a one-level demo of PSX Doom on Ebay or Amazon (don't remember which) a while ago, but I can't find it there now, and I can't find any reference to it anywhere on the web. Is it true that such a version does exist? Does anyone know anything about it?


 * I certainly have never heard of one, and Gave Rave doesn't have it listed. Doesn't mean one doesn't exist though. If it does, it would definitely be a rare find. - Nuxius 21:38, 21 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Found this interview where the demo is clearly mentioned, so I guess it does exist. It even has the track which supposedly played in that demo. Would be interesting to find out more about it... Asdfsfs 19:49, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Confirmed. I owned the demo, I played it. It was on one of the UK Playstation magazines around 1996 and a single Doom 2 level "The Gauntlet" (Gantlet) it may have been collective on official Playstation with other demos later in the magazines run and I know at that time they did start the cover disc trend BUT I wanna say it was exclusive to another magazine possibly Play, I recall being an avid buyer of that after reading the official's issue 2 Doom review. Can't say which mag, the single level disc does exist however.

EDIT: Note the demo was not jewel cased. Rather, housed in a clear PVC slip-sleeve. OPM issue 2 review ref: http://officialukplaystationmagazine.blogspot.co.uk/2009/08/welcome-to-issue-2-of-official-uk.html

Final Doom
Final Doom was released as a separate game on the PS1. I think the Final Doom information should be moved to new article. Also, it's worth noting that the Spider Mastermind's sprites are actually in the PS1 Final Doom but since none of the levels have it, they go unused. Glisp 15:58, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Organization of level lists
I am loathe to just revert the prior change as the reader states he had readability issues with the article but in its present form it is too long and disrupts the article flow. Anybody got another idea, maybe something using a table or some other template-powered gadgetry? Raw lists that go on for 80 rows are rarely the best solution. --Quasar (talk) 12:17, 26 June 2014 (UTC)


 * I am not opposed to solutions that involve as part of it making PSX Final Doom its own article, btw. I've been feeling the two shouldn't be enjambed into one article for several months now but didn't feel like doing the large amount of work necessary to separate them, and then track down all the references on the rest of the wiki pointing here when referring to PSX Final Doom as a subject. My candidate title would be Final Doom (PlayStation) --Quasar (talk) 12:25, 26 June 2014 (UTC)


 * I tried to create a structure that would give an alternative between the currently published version and the new one that was created by the reader. I agree that the structure on the draft is too long, and the amount of white empty space bothers me. If three horizontal text bars make the layout too crowded, let's use only two of them. In addition, while my level list is not as short vertically as the current three-column version, it is shorter than the one on the draft. --Jartapran (talk) 18:15, 26 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Now see if we were to get rid of Final Doom by making it its own article, we could have two columns, possibly even within the same table, for Doom on the left and Doom II on the right and I think it would look really good that way. It's the presence of two entire games in this article that's creating the problem if you ask me. Unless you or somebody else objects, I may start working on it this weekend. If you want to put your idea in place in the meantime as an interim that's not a problem as I'd then copy the Final Doom table to its own article at that point and get rid of it from this one. --Quasar (talk) 12:48, 27 June 2014 (UTC)


 * OK it's done; I think I caught all the links to here that should go to the new article. This article is improved a lot by being on topic about a single game, in my opinion. --Quasar (talk) 03:04, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
