This is a console version of a PC level.

This level occupies the map slot MAP10. For other maps which occupy this slot, see Category:MAP10.

MAP10: Containment Area is the tenth level of most console versions of Doom, based on the original E2M2: Containment Area with modifications made to adapt the level to consoles' memory and storage limitations. The author of the conversion is unknown, and the original map authors are Tom Hall and Sandy Petersen. The map first appeared in Atari Jaguar version, and was later used in the 3DO, Sega 32X, Game Boy Advance, Sony PlayStation, and Sega Saturn versions. Due to its original size, it is one of the most radically altered levels, with nearly half of the original geometry removed.

Map of Containment Area

Essentials

Most of the areas were removed when the level was ported to the Atari Jaguar version, so the walkthrough compared to the PC-version counterpart somewhat differs.

Bugs

The chainsaw room is still present on the level and is normally inaccessible. It is ordinarily impossible to get into this room and therefore to get 100% kills and secrets. In the Atari Jaguar version, it is possible to clip into the area using a glitch with the rocket launcher. This was fixed in the PlayStation and Saturn version, as these versions remove the orphaned rooms.

Versions comparison

Compared to the PC level, a large amount of changes were made to the console version to simplify it for the limitations of consoles.

The entire western section of the crate maze has been removed.

The western hallway from the central marble room and the slime river it leads to have been removed. The exit door is now separated from the rest of the level by an isolated slime pit.

The crusher hallway and the yellow keycard room were removed. The blue keycard area, previously after the crusher hallway, is now where the yellow keycard room used to be. The eastern hallway from the central marble room was shortened to match this change in geometry.

The three hallways with flashing blue lights in the west of the level and the three sets of "pistons" in the southeast of the map, along with their associated secret areas, have been removed.
