The action is placed on Earth, however, and Earth is, at least according to id Software, dull.

First of all, the music leans more towards the ambient side, but, thankfully, it's still great.

It is the same, SVGA-powered, MIDI-sounding, DOS game as before, with the same - perfect - controls and fast gameplay. The only problem is that it all seems to be the same experience all over again, graphic engine and all.ДЇrom a technical standpoint, nothing has changed. The story? Who cares! Once again, it is the typical placeholder plot of the series: demons have reached our world via UAC's experimental portals, and a nameless space marine is the only one who can foil their plans for dominion over this side of the cosmos.

id Software wasted no time, and, before you know it, brought the action back home - evident by the title of this fantastic sequel, Doom II: Hell on Earth. There are no sleep-inducing cut-scenes and loading screens, no need for 'Character Creation' dialogue, and, thankfully, no tutorials, quest markers, and stupid ' return to the combat zone' warnings - just press 'New Game' and start filling enemies with hot lead, missiles, and plasma.ДЄfter its enormous success, it was only natural that a sequel would soon be available. It's fast and in-your-face, its demons hold no punches, its complex levels are treacherous, the boom-sticks are varied and easy to handle, and, finallyвЂ¦ it's fast and in-your-face. Not only did it make the FPS genre famous, not only is it one of the most important videogames of all time, and not only does it look and sound great, but it also feels so.
