PC DOOM: Player feels badass because of the music that maybe helps boost the action PS1 DOOM: Teaches "when in hell fight like hell" with no need to write it on screen and it feels badass slaughtering demons at full speed Either way, demons are stuck in hell with Doomguy, but hell in PS1 feels more like "hell" and less like a "B movie" ... and honestlly, even when I played th PC versions I muted the songs and set PS1 music because it did not feel DOOM to me, still weapons sound less powerful too on PC version but the music to me is a nono, I grew up with PS1 DOOM,, my first fps game that I played it for literal 12 or 13 years on PS1 and emulator before I first played the PC versions so it always sounded (and looked) off to me. Still played at full speed the same at both, it is all about getting used to the gamepad (and as I mentioned, it was my first DOOM also my first fps, I do know how to circle strafe at ful speed while also changing directions to dodge everything and position myself behind other demons to avoid hitscam enemies, it is literally the same thing as on PC version).

This is not only a very well made port. This feels like a celebration, like a tribute to the original.

Doom PS1 captures the plot of the game better than any other version. You are the last man in a horrific hell scape. You dont feel stronger from cool metal tracks. You feel like youre going into a losing situation that there is no hope for survival, capturing the meaning of being doomed.

You made me realize that I have NEVER played Doom with its original soundtrack! The first Doom I played was the shareware version of chapter 1, on a Windows 3.1 PC with no dedicated sound card. It had no music at all and all soundbites were 8-bit crushed to death. And then my second Doom was... the PS1 one. That's probably why I don't recognize any of the Doom classic themes, but that PS1 opening menu gave me chills!

The Midway Trilogy is my favourite DOOM. I actually think DOOM 3 was more of a sequel to the Midway Trilogy (PSX DOOM, PSX FINAL DOOM, DOOM 64) instead of the PC DOOM games. Night Dive should do a remaster of PSX DOOM and PSX FINAL DOOM as one package. Just like they did with DOOM 64.

"There is nothing stopping you from playing this game right now." Well, I'm watching from work, so that would be an issue.

My first Doom was on Super Nintendo. Playing Doom: Custom Playstation Edition was a breath of fresh air. I enjoyed the new music, recolored areas and smoother control.

This games soundtrack is how I figured out you can play any music CD. I got so freaked out one time just picturing the horrible things beyond the walls making that sound that I put in my new Alanis Morissette cd in instead. And then instead of demon babies beyond the wall I had one hand in my pocket and the other had a cigarette. With visiting hours being nine to five and if I show up at six....

As a kid, I loved PC Doom, so naturally when I got my PSX, I had to get Doom. I wasn't expecting it to be as pants shittingly scary as it was. My 9 year old self was not ready. Also, I'm very happy you felt the same way about Final doom. I got it deep into the PS2 era at a flea market, and I was like... "wtf is this".

OG Doom's soundtrack is for a horror-themed power fantasy that makes you feel like the badass you play as. PSX Doom's soundtrack is for a horror game that makes you feel like a single man fighting an army of demons.

Requires reverse engineering like they did with doom 64, unless they download an ISO that works exactly like the original

The PSX soundtrack is exactly what my nightmares as a kid included (and I never played the Playstation Doom). I’m 34yo and am still totally unable to play Doom 1/2/64/3 to this day (in the Marines I bought Doom 3 just so i could watch buddies play for me as I screamed for days). I can’t play Doom, but PSX Doom is the utter flagship of “scariest thing I can imagine” in terms of weirdly deeply ingrained videogame horror. More nightmarish than even Doom 64s soundtrack imo

3 things guaranteed. Death, Taxes, and Derek finding a way to make a Doom port video.

Gotta love how that spooky demonic groaning is actually ping pong and some radio quote like "Ten-Eight-One, heeey!" super slowed down to a hellish degree.

I like how doom psx made the levels and environments more isolating and creepier with the music ambience and lighting

Glad you pointed out how the music made Doom PSX more horror than Classic Doom, Uncle Derek. This version was my first run with Doom and I remember having trouble finishing it because it was just so eerie. When I got to play Classic Doom later on, I was awestruck that the game was actually metal AF.

Doom 64 at the time opened the floodgates for Ambiant sound tracks in Doom franchise. It makes complete sense for the concept to exist.

Hodges scarred me with his quake 64 soundtrack as a kid. And for it, I will never thank him enough. It brought so much dread through my sessions.

THANK YOU!! I love PSX Doom so much! In truth I was never quite able to get into the original Doom, but the PSX version’s atmosphere sucked me in and made me love it.

My copy of Doom on the PS1 was given to me by my uncle. It came in an Aphex Twin CD case with a scrap of notebook paper inside, lined up with handwritten cheat codes. What a banger. I still have it on my shelf to confuse my friends when they see my collection.

YES. It's by far my favorite version of the original game.

The entire sound design and backgrounds were incredible, really recontextualised the game. My dad raised us while he played the shit out of psx doom so he has a different take on the franchise compared to fast pc midi metal. There were 2 different ideas for doom in most people's heads between the fast metal and slower horror atmosphere. Wish psx doom and 64 were more notorious within the fanbase, would have made doom 3 less jarring. Hope the next doom doesn't go full on comic book, got a little silly for me. I love the solo maniac under dark helpless odds moving purely on fear, lead and adrenaline.

Whenever Uncle Derek puts out a Doom video, you know it's going to be a very good day. And glad I was reminded of Aubrey Hodge's music, his work is masterfully made.

It's the One-Two punch of both Aubrey Hodges's music/sfx combined with the colored lighting that really brings the classic Doom offering full-circle. Sure, classic Doom on its own might be unnerving as far as monster encounters and such, but, with the ATMOSPHERE that PSX Doom brings, you can actually FEEL the fires of hell as you start to transition from starport maps into hellish maps. When the soundtrack is droning with its terror strings and babies crying in the distance, and you step out from a shaded stone building onto a molten pad lit by only the reddish/amber hues of the fire sky, there's literally no other experience like that.

Back in the good ol days, my buddy had gotten a playstation, and he asked for “tomb” raider. His parents could only recall “doom” so bought him Doom for Christmas. We knew doom, he told me excitedly though how this was different! My oh my did I get sucked back into some Doom sessions over at his place, we would just take turns in the dark room peering upon the crtv while the spookiness filled the space along with colored lighting. Great time in my life, I hope someone enjoyed this random recollection.

Still got my original copy, complete with a hand-written passcode list. A great reminder of the time when different consoles would get radically different versions of the same game. The title theme is also so badass it makes me want to go outside and kick a Cyberdemon in the balls.

The soundtrack in this game gives an entire different experience. The entire atmosphere is changed with that gloomy and eerie background music. Definitely not for purists, but if you into a different take, it's worth.

I downloaded a ROM for PSX Doom last year. Tried it on my Retroid 2 'cuz I wanted some Doom. I had never played PSX Doom, nor heard anything about it except that it had colored lighting. So finding that first level Pain Elemental was actually, truly, one of the most terrifying things I had ever seen. I genuinely screamed "YOU CAN'T BE HERE!!" at it. It's a good experience and I wish I had had a playstation growing up.

I'll admit that I couldn't get into PSX Doom when I first tried it, but learning that it adds Doom 2 enemies to the first game makes me want to give it a second chance. Nothing better to spice up the classic episodes than adding more enemies to it!

I like how this port went the scary route of atmospheric hell feel creeping the player out they should make this an option for the ports or just give us this version as a wad for modern consoles looks so damn amazing for what it is it feels as if doom 3 borrowed from 64 and Playstation doom

PS1 soundtracks went so damn hard. Composers knew they could use CD-quality music over MIDI and so many of them just went HAM with insanely good songs to show off the tech.

The only downside was some framerate drops in heavy levels but it's not that bad. The enemies the music and the difficulty was awesome. Excellent game !

A fantastic and fully accurate way to play Playstation Doom on PC in the modern age is PsyDoom. It is a full backport of the game that uses the original PS1 game files and allows you to switch between a new hi-res renderer and the original, complete with the mild texture-warping, all running at 60fps. I still prefer to play the Playstation original, but this is an excellent option for those who'd rather keep things up to date. Oh and it works with Final Doom too.

I remember playing this with my brother. You could connect 2 playstation and and 2 tvs and play co-op. Good times.

The music in the PSX version is not streaming from the CD like many games did. Its actually something akin to midi using custom sound font. Its a little known fact that the PS1 has something akin to the SNES audio processor in it, but on steroids.

Something you should have mentioned is that people have recreated all the scrapped maps from Ultimate Doom, Doom 2, and Final Doom in the Playstation Doom style, with there being a mod that even has them runnable on an actual Playstation. The Playstation Doom CE you briefly mentioned has the option to readd those recreated scrapped maps into the normal level progression (as well as the ability to readd the Archvile and Spider Mastermind too).

First game I ever played on Playstation. I played through it dozens of times back in the 90’s. It’s a masterpiece of a translation.

I had this game (still have it) back in 1995 and it BLEW me away with its amazing soundtrack, lighting and atmosphere. I never had access to the full PC version, just shareware version in my school library back then and i wasnt impressed with the games sound, music or lighting so i moved on, but then when this PS1 version came out it was like a whole new game and i LOVED it still to this day, my fave version. So glad the dude who did the music for this came back for Doom 64.

"Give me Gloom!" You ever played Gloom? It's one hell of a technical marvel for the Amiga!

I’ve also heard that there were some performance issues with having a cd soundtrack so Aubrey went with a new soundtrack all together

My first version of Doom that I ever played was PS1 Doom I also regard it as my most favourite port of Doom I didn’t have as a negative experience with Final Doom because at the time I was just happy to get more Doom goodness in my life also I really like the sprite for the DBShotgun in PS1 Final Doom It just looks so clean unlike the OG which I thought looked kinda bent at the end But yeah apologies for the long ass comment Derek, like you I hold it very dear to my heart Anyhoo thanks for the great content as always my dude

I actually like that some stuff is missing from E2's maps tbh. Makes it 10x less confusing

I love the passion you put in these videos, and your respect for devs and artists' work. It is truly commendable.

@9:50 re Super Shotgun (SSG) in Doom 1: There are custom-built passwords that allow the SSG on all maps in the Doom1 Episode of PS1 Doom. Posting a direct "el eye en kay" will likely get this comment auto-purged, so... the password list can be found at a certain place on the web that covers *Classic Doom* games, hintity hint hint.

I mean yes you can use cheats and manipulate passwords to HAVE the super shotgun in Doom 1, but that new level is the only place you'll FIND one in Doom 1.

@@StopSkeletonsFromFighting Yep, you're right. And yeah, to be clear, it is highly recommended to play PS1 Doom (or any game) all the way through the first time without any cheats or shortcuts. But _afterwards,_ it can be fun to play around with stuff like that. :)

About time someone looked at the PS1 Doom. Superior music and atmosphere that went across to Doom 64

I love PSX DooM and still play it regularly on my PSX and my old cathodic television. I remember playing it one night over twelve years ago, being on Pandemonium and having the music cutting out and starting some kind of distorted, scary and melancholic music with weird sounds and screams I never heard before in the game... I think it was my scratched CD, I can't do it since. I know it sounds like some other creepypasta from the internet to you, but I know it's something I really witnessed all alone, so I feel I lived something unique with my favourite game

Best DOOM period, I'm glad SSFF was able to convey my sentiments plus go above & beyond in all those extra details I never even knew about to let ppl understand why it truly is the best!

Hodges is a great artist. My personal favorite of this works is the soundtrack for Quest For Glory IV, especially the title music and the Heroes Guild music. The guy certainly deserves a few bucks for those tracks alone.

"Cavernous? Anxiety inducing? Suffocating?" Wow, it's like the background track to the inside of my own head!

Starting antidepressants as an adult, you look back on things this and you realize, "Oh I probably should've been on this stuff for a while!"

Derek you absolutely need to check out the fan overhaul of doom 32x. It is amazing, weird and just the thing you’d love!

I played Doom 32x on actual hardware a few weeks ago at convention and it plays way way smoother than I remembered! But I do need to finally play that overhauled mod, every time it get's updated I think people run to tell me about it!
