If this video gets a billion likes I will do a follow up looking at speedruns of AWESOME doom ports!
(I probably will anyway)
A billion? Can I get the same weed, it's seems to be pretty good. Love your content keep it up.
I love how this man basically explained the PC vs Console war to show how doom runs like garbage and of course people who speedrun them.
I was hoping for an Honorable Mention on these 2 ports - Maybe not official - but still neat - the VIC 20 and and C 64 versions.

Lmao
Me too, actually.

I won't blame you, I have ultimate doom on my PC and it's port on the Switch and I still prefer to play on the GBA. I don't know why but it just feels right to me
Better than the SNES, 3DO and Saturn versions, at least.

The saddest part of the Sega Saturn version is that we could've had a 60fps console version in 1997, and it was scrapped because it looked slightly worse.
Has that version ever been otherwise released or leaked anywhere?
Frame rates aren't everything, dawg
@@Starman256 Play the Saturn port and tell me you would rather have slighty better graphics over a good framerate
@@eletronictoenails fair enough. It's all relative
@@eletronictoenails with speedruns and how game engines interact with framerates its really significant, but my comment was from a casual gamer point-of-view
Fun fact, one of the reasons that a lot of doom console ports runs poorly is because that except the enemies doom isn't a sprite game engine but a bitmap one(a abridged version is that they use texture and generate the images on the fly).
When doom launched and even some time later there wasn't any big console that wasn't a sprite based console(where it's gpu was made to handle sprites) so porting to them was difficult
The 32X wasn't a sprite based one. The 32X struggles to get 60 FPS on certain 2D games because the background has to be rendered in 3D, lol. Probably explains the high framerate the 32X port had.
Imagine a normal Pregnancy Test with a chance of 1% to start DOOM when used.
Oh oh
INVEST
Many would think that it just being positive starts DOOM.
PREGNANCY
COMPLETED
@@PPUnknown TIME: 37 WEEKS 2 DAYS. PAR: 36 WEEKS
To be fair the pregnancy test wasn't actually running doom but had the video streamed to it.
Burger Becky is a powerhouse of a programmer the fact that she alone was able to port Doom in 10 weeks for the 3DO is amazing, just imaging what she could have done with a proper team, time and resources.
Carmack is better, but he can see things in 6D, so... you can’t be better than god himself.
she's the true doomgirl, much respect
This woman just kills me.
How the fuck is it even possible ?
I know, Doom is almost 30 years old at that point and so the programming was much less complex (though the tools also were), but it's still one hell of an achievement
I know, right? I write software for a living and I can't even imagine how difficult it must've been to do all that in such a short amount of time. Damn the higher-ups with no technical knowledge!
I HIGHLY suggest looking up her TH-cam channel in the video description and watching her video on the insanity that was making this port, it's truly mind blowing stuff what she had to go through like not even having the source code and the people who were paying for the port only having photoshop screen shots and saying "Here you go, make the game we promised!"
For the longest time my only experience with Doom was the SNES port, and I know it looks awful, and is a slog to control, but something about that somehow adds to it for me. It's like how the sluggish tank controls of the first few Resident Evil games makes you feel more helpless. A single cacodemon felt like a huge threat, and (if I recall correctly) not being able to save the game further added to this.
Nightmare seemed impossible, but trying to slowly crawl through this game as a kid on ultraviolent in one sitting was an amazing experience for me.
When I play PC I feel like an incredibly powerful supersoldier, who the demons should fear.
When I played SNES, I felt like an ordinary soldier, who was just barely able to scrape by these terrifying and dangerous demons, by being smarter, and a little lucky.
Overall I acknowledge PC is superior by miles, especially for speedrunning, but I'll always have a soft spot for my casual snes playthrough.
You really put words to the strange sorta charm that the SNES port of DOOM has, even with all it's glaring faults.
My first doom was also the SNES port. The only thing i hate about it back then was the lack of saves and password. It was a very long game , especialy if you wanted to play it on easy difficulties. Beside that, i played thé game for hours, loved it and still have the cartridge
There's just something special about SNES Doom. It's atmosphere is unmatched by the other ports
pc doom is an action game with horror elements, snes is a horror game with action elements
That lady remade doom without source code? In 10 weeks? On the 3DO? Legendary.
In a fair world that would be the reason for the managers mug shot.
Yeah, I mean, making something even vaguely resembling DOOM, alone, with no access to neither the source code or the assets, in 10 weeks should be considered a major feat.
The PC source code, which was purchased by Art Data, was lost by the company's CEO. She was given the source code for the Jaguar version by John Carmack, which she spent 10 weeks optimising for the 3DO.
Karl: "I wouldn't wish this port on my worst enemy"
Billy Mitchell: (breaths sigh of relief)
Don't get the wrong idea. He wouldn't wish it on Billy because he would A: Emulate it, B: Claim it's the best version of DOOM and C: Sue anyone and anything that tells him otherwise.
Sued.
Billy Mitchell (or Milly Bitchell ^^ I love that version actually) wouldn't mind, at all.
He'd just send you the -demo- video tape of world record run on that port, he wouldn't need to play. He's just that good.

"Can it run Doom?" is, at this point, the gaming equivalent of "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should."
Wow, I didn't know that Saturn was getting a version of DOOM with a custom engine. It looks so good! What a shame that it was canned. Considering the amazing version of Duke Nukem 3D and Quake on Sega Saturn, and the amazing Exhumed/Powerslave, that could have been a great port.
Yes extremely disappointing! According to what ive read and heard, it would have been the definitive console version of that era.
@@RetroGamesBoy78 I have still never experienced the Saturn after all these years. None of my friends had one at the time.
Speedruns of doom: you have my interest
speedruns of shitty doom ports that never should have seen the light of day: You had my interest, now you have my attention
Movie references never get old
Doom for the 32x soundtrack is the equivalent of nokia arabic ringtone.
Yeah, it's sounds like Prince of Persia soundtrack. :D
It's 10 times as bad
check out "At Doom's Gate." People don't call it "At Poop's gate" for nothing.
Which is a shame, because the Genesis actually pulled metal-ish music off quite well.
@@koshi6505 I think it's more of an issue with the way composers/sound designers tended to treat multiplatform releases back then.
The fact that the gap between Doom and GBA Doom is only 8 years blew my mind... Seemed like way more time in between.
You think that's bad? 8 years before Doom, the most popular gaming computer was the C64. If you wanted to shoot scaling sprites at high speeds, you'd need a quarter for Space Harrier at the mall.
It was the same year that Super Mario Bros 1 landed. Most of America didn't care...yet.
8 years before that, the Atari 2600 was being outsold, 3-1, by Nintendo's Pong console. The Space Invaders port that saved them wouldn't save them until a few years later.
8 years before that, none of the tech giants wanted anything to do with Ralph Baer or his brown box. Using machines to play games on a television screen? Sounds like bad sci-fi.
Novelty aside, what can it do that a real table tennis set can't?
The thing about Doom's success back in 1993 was that it made me really happy because I'd always been a PC gamer, starting from the Commodore 64 onward. When Doom became a massive success, it was sort of like I'd been vindicated in my belief that these would be the superior gaming machines one day
I was glad to help best I could with this one. That GBA speedrun wasn't free, I won't get those 14,300+ attempts back.. still worth it. lol
Stay legendary Karl, absolutely legendary!

Just seeing these ports hurts my eyes and my soul. I cant imagine why people were like "hey, I should devote myself to mastering this."
Perhaps because there's less competition, but it's still Doom.
@@LamgiMari Or It is a good challenge.
I guarantee at least some of them started with "ha ha wouldn't it be funny if I did a speedrun on this?"
The line between pleasure and pain is an exceptionally thin one.
Well perhaps some people have tougher eyes and souls than you do.
I wish we could've gotten that 60FPS Saturn Port (or even a rom dump of it years later). Would've been interesting to see what was so "ugly" about it.
My guess would be the rendering and textures, considering how saturn games tended to not have a lot of stuff going on at once.
"Turning with a D-Pad just makes everything a chore."
*Resident Evil movements intensify*
EDIT:
Watching this again and it just occurred to me that with the SNES port, they probably started work before asking so that if Id thought a port would be a bad idea, the company would have a prototype to show that it wouldn't be too terrible.
At least RE's movements were justified
@@ikagura still It was bad.
@@naoaquieopatrickpatrick8565 I actually like tank controls. Like in REmake 1, I can't use the analog sticks. The movement just doesn't feel right. So I use the d-pad.

But the water isn't wet-
@@dezgasting Too true. Water just makes other things wet.
I really want to see someone running doom on a nokia now
fun fact, a definition of wet is the ability of a liquid to spread out. Sadly for people trying to use this as an argument that water is wet, water likes to bead up and isn't very wet in the given definition.
But can water run doom?
The 32x soundtrack has the same energy as an off key kazoo solo.
Glad you mentioned the fracas that happened with Saturn Doom. It's a damn shame, especially when you look at what Labotomy Software did a couple of years later when they ported Quake over.

I speedran against Melanie Griffith the other day -- she was fantastic, by the way -- and she mentioned that playing a few levels of Doom on the Atari Jaguar is a great way to reduce sinusoidal depleneration.

@@Tom2404 no that means she is giving birth to doom slayer
'If you want to try your hand at speedrunning one of these old ports---'
Nah I'm good.
The mention about looking away from the enemies to avoid loading them and improve the framerate reminded me of the Goldeneye speedrun trick of looking at the ground to "run faster" and now I can't help wondering if they are somewhat related to the same mechanics.
first time i ever played doom was on the ps1 port, the sound effects are really good on that version they also went with a more atmospheric approach to the soundtrack and gave the game more of a horror feel.
The Super NES Version hold a special spot in my childhood. Even today, despite the sluggish pace, I think the game is indeed playable and even more scary dues to that said thing as well as a more tense soundtrack.
The best part of the SNES port is how the shotgun has no spread when it fires, so it's basically a sniper rifle.
I don’t think it bad and for a limitations port it a good game.
@@WastedScoundrel That is true! It acted more like a rifle than a shotgun. Rocket launcher were also much stronger in that one , killing Baron in three or four shots instead of five.
@@n1njahawkssecondchannel84 There were better games on the console tho
@@ikagura true I liked manny SNES games more than Doom SNES but I still Think it’s a good port just not the best one.
"Can it run doom?"
Basically yeah.
Well yes but actually yes
The porters were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they _should._
14:00 still freaks me out a bit. Being the first version of DOOM I ever played I thought the sound was intentional. The funny thing is I made a video where I corrupted the 32x version of DOOM and in some cases it improved the music!

hey jobst, i love listening to your vids while closing my store late at night. i really love your doom and goldeneye vids especially the golden eye ones. i played it as a kid and its definitely refreshing seeing it again. also am i crazy or were the graphics better back then lol keep up the good work hope to see you soon!
hahaha a pregnancy test can run doom, and the calculator doesn't surprise me, the texas instruments calculator is a beast, it's basically like a micro computer. Ironically i think the colours look better on the snes version than the jaguar version, despite being a lower resolution.
Well the SNES uses the original PC textures while the Jaguar uses more brown ones.
Personally I prefer Genesis' buzzing sound chip to any other 16 bit console anytime. But DAYM! That is one shittiest use of this chip capabilities I've ever heard. Laughed my ass of.

Supposedly, they just auto-arranged the music using the infamous GEMS audio driver, which always did a terrible job when used in this manner. None of the 32X's extra PCM channels are used either. A lot of things about this game had to be compromised to meet the 32X release date after an extremely short dev cycle. I thought that it was pretty awesome though, as it was my only way to play.
@@Xeotroid THAT SHIT SLAPS AF!
I own Doom 1 and 2 on the GBA and finished them both on one of the hard settings years ago, I remember liking it quite a lot, felt very smooth being able to strafe and such easily, very playable but not sure there's a reason to play it now, i just remember them being enjoyable enough to play a lot of both of them
I love the GBA port. Especially upon release it was amazing to have a portable version that ran respectable.
Props to Becky. That is insane. That's the kind of situation where you just nod and smile, keep eye contact while slowly reaching for the desk drawer.

My first doom was 32X. It was a great port for the most part, but it was missing levels. I think it had 15 levels. It had all of episode 1 and almost all of episode 2 - it lacked the cyberdemon boss.

Gernot Schrader Bull fucking shit. FM does not "sound cheap". This game uses the GEMS sound driver that's responsible for the Mega Drive's poor sound reputation. Gauntlet 4 and Thunder Force 4 sounds better than most video game soundtracks and no PCM was used in either soundtrack.

Amazing video Karl! I was skeptical when I saw the intro but it was in fact so intriguing and fun! Thank you!
10 weeks without the source code? Considering those ridiculous restrictions, she did an amazing job!
Holy gods, only one programmer? And only 10 weeks to make the port?
I'm amazed that it runs as well as it does, honestly. She's a tank for getting through that.
I knew "Can it run Doom?" was a meme, but I actually wanted a serious video about Doom ports, so thank you, Karl.
Waiting for the awesome ports version.
I had hoped you would have shown some of the more absurd things that have been made to run doom. When I was working in a retail shop, a video came out of playing doom on a printer. Using the little mono screen and buttons on the printer itself. Some of those more out there ports are amazing.
12:15 - This is basically the point at which I gave up on playing the Saturn version. That level is damn-near unplayable with how bad the performance is at that point, as the controls simply aren't responsive enough to deal with everything that's thrown at you. And I say that as someone who originally played through DOOM on SNES.
Me: Yo pass me the aux cord!
Friend: U better not play trash
Me: 13:57
Damn i wanted to make that joke
Big up Karl, absolute legend.
13:57 fun fact: the entire DOOM soundtrack is just MIDI files, and they sound different depending of the hardware, since they include this almost forgotten piece of tech called "sound cards" (I mean, they're still a thing, ig, but now people just opt for their default sound card instead of a better one, like they'd always do in the 90s), so I suppose the 32x had a very low quality sound card
Did you know that Billy Mitchell, video game player of the century, actually held the world record for every single port all at once until Guinness screwed him

Yep what I think to

YES! The original Playstation is still, by far, my favorite console port of Doom, and I'd watch it for that one alone :D
Agreed! The soundtrack of that one (and the interesting combination of levels) means it must be covered by Karl!
PS1 Doom has its own vibe. The soundtrack, slight visual changes and huge amount of levels make it still worth checking out in my opinion.
@@therealpizzagirl Exactly. It, PS1 Final Doom, Doom 64, and Doom 3 are almost their own sub-series within the Doom franchise that lean more towards horror than action (though they still have plenty of action lol), and I love them for it :D
Doom was the first game I played on the PS1, and is arguably still the best console port of the original game.

I was hoping you'd make this video soon. Coincidently just last week I broke out Doom on the Jag and started playing it. The no dedicated strafe was annoying. I then bought a pro controller with X, Y, Z and L+R buttons thinking one of them would strafe. Nope, can't outsmart the system.
I swear the resolution on Doom Jag better when I was a kid. Maybe I'm just used to playing on PC and 360 since then and I'm misremembering. Or maybe the non-HD big screen concealed some of the pixelation back then.
In any case I was playing Doom Jag and thinking "I wonder if there are people who speedrun Doom on Jag or other consoles? Behold, what timing! Great video. Keep up the good work.
For reasons I don't fully understand, the 32X port is my favorite version of Doom. It's probably related to my adoration of the console, but something about it is incredibly charming and I always end up playing for hours when I load it up.
The 32x is not a console
The only problem is 32X Doom likes to crash.
13:58 I bursted laughing, this music masterpiece holy molly
me too
I was born in 1998, my brother and I played Wolfenstein 3D while there was still ADSL connection, he was operating movement and I was controling the mouse, it was epic and we beat the game. Fast forward to high school I couldn't install almost any exe file but could play simple emulators so I played GBA Doom on Informatics class 😁
hilarious shit... reminds me of me and cousin going at Split Screen doom using Doom Legacy port early 2000's
I know the story behind John Carmack not wanting to use the dedicated VDP 2 chip for the Saturn version, it could have come out so much better and would have probably trumped the PlayStation version. Console wise? PlayStation one is the best Doom hands down. It was Doom 1 and 2 combined and you also got ultimate Doom later on about a year or two later. Great soundtrack very ambient based and great little touches that make it just run very well. Of course it was based off the Jaguar code but that doesn't mean it lacks the action of the PC version because it is all there. Aside from just a few minor differences. I personally played doom shareware on a Pentium back in the day so I had probably the best experience but having soft hacked the PlayStation classic, one of my ROMs I uploaded to my USB was Doom. I'm extremely happy the PS1 version was not included in the terrible ports video. I can only wait for the awesome ports video! Excellent job Karl you are an absolute Legend! ( at least 50% of your legendary status is the fact that you, like me, also shred some guitar😉).
