Um, thanks I guess? Most of us actually grew up either with or (in my case) before Doom and Wolfenstein and are well aware of this fact.

That settles it. I'm selling my 360 tomorrow. It's pointless since all of these games are just copies of older out-of-date games.

I still don't get the point of this since most of us should already know the importance of those two games and previous consoles for that matter. I just don't get the point of this thread at all.

Never played cod or halo, but your logic can be applied to other games as well.

Wolfenstien and Doom are old news, they were good back in the day but nowadays the bar has been raised. Sure, games now took, and still take from a standard they set, but it's always being improved and perfected. A game with the gameplay of Wolfenstien or Doom today wouldn't be recieved well. Nostalgia, it's a killer.

What? There's still a good community playing Skulltag and making maps the game still sell pretty well, just look at their XBL port both sold extremely well. With user made map and the ability to mod the entire game based on its engine you can never get bored of Doom, and anyway Ultra Violence is more challenging than most games these days, at least in user made map.

But thats just my view as a doomer. It aged well and will continue to age well.

Don't doubt that. There's better games tho, games have come a bit. It'll always be played because people won't be able to let it go because that's what they grew up with. But the formula for both those games has been taken and improved tenfold in modern shooters. Some, anyway.

Well yeah disagree with the last bits of your post but heh in the end its all a matter of view, for me its still the greatest FPS but not the point i'll force down upon people's throat that Doom and wolf3D is what made FPS, its old knowledge. :P

Though mind you i can't neglect "Catacomb" which came out before the above titles.
