The '''BFG9000''' is the ultimate weapon in the [[classic Doom]] series. Although somewhat unwieldy to aim, it can inflict thousands of points of damage over a wide angular field. Each shot produces a huge plasma ball followed by numerous invisible rays after impact. Early [[deathmatch]] maps sometimes omitted the BFG for fear of upsetting play balance.

'''Doom 64''', released March 31, 1997 for the Nintendo 64, is a sequel to Doom II. The game has all new graphics and runs on a modified Doom engine, based on the Sony PlayStation port. Doom 64 was released by Midway Games, in cooperation with id Software. The plot focuses on events following the original games in the series. An evil entity known as the Mother Demon has survived and brought back the decaying dead creatures the player once killed. It is up to him, the lone space marine, to stop the legions once again.

The BFG has become a trope over the years, widely imitated in other FPS games (including by [[id Software]]) and referenced in popular culture as often as any specific Doom element.
