Retrospekt Review: Doom Classic (iPhone/iPod Touch)

By David Kudrev

Doom for those who don’t know (I should be nice at least writing this paragraph), is a classic 1st person shooter which pushed the boundaries of what PC gaming was capable of achieving in it’s day. We’re talking 1993 here folks. The game has caused a lot of controversies (as all games with violent content sadly have), but has still been dubbed as a cult classic to even this day. What is more fascinating it has been a benchmark title to port the game to just about anything, from iPods (as in the clickwheel models), to various handsets, to even calculators!

Enter Doom Classic for the iPhone.
