      Did he turn into a flying raccoon after eating the mushrooms, by any chance?
      No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

        No, I think you had to collect a leaf or something to turn into a raccoon.

          The imagination, mostly.


          What could you possibly like about doom?

            The tension. The shock of suddenly coming under attack, and the thrill of getting the situation back under control and blowing you attacker away. The thrill of the hunt -- as both hunter and hunted. The pressure you come under as you realize you're down to your last rounds, and you can't find reloads, let alone the exit. The wonder of discovery, first with the original maps, then with fan-made maps with new settings, graphics, and sounds.

              Basically, the same things that made First Person Shooters what they are today.

                I love Mario. My Mum loves Mario.

                  I'd go for Mario. If I could be bother registering to vote.

                  I never ran out of ammo in Doom, even on the hardest setting. Whereas losing the Tanooki suit was pain itself.

                    You mean next-to-hardest setting, right?

                    The auto-respawn on Nightmare was a bit much, IMO.

                      You might be right, although since the computer I played it on is probably in some landfill, I'll never know.

                        Not sure but the nightmare setting may not have been in the original doom... it was in doom 2 and probably in ultimate doom. I figured it would be impossible to play it through with that setting...

                          Nope, it was definitely there in the original doom...

                            Yeah, seconding PH, it was there. Not much fun though at any rate, IMO - Ultra-Violence was fun, while monster respawning just ruined the feeling for me.

                              Godmode vs. Nightmare was an occasional diversion for me...
