The new DOOM game is surprisingly awesome, and like Wolfenstein and Fallout, it’s full of humorous Easter eggs and subtle nods to other games.

So far I found the old school level in I think the second level? The one before the Foundry. So awesome. glad to know there’s at least one more to look out for since I didn’t recognise that gif up there.
Every level has a secret old doom room. Upon finding them all, you can play through the original doom using new monsters and weapons!
That’s the same one I found. I haven’t found one since. Gonna have to grab a guide when I’m done, look that stuff up.
The Skyrim easter egg above… theres a lever next to it for another original doom level.
I have found one in the first level 🙂
Absolutely loving this game, despite most reviews.
I haven’t even seen any reviews apart from user reviews on Metacritic (where the only negative ones are clearly from people who haven’t played the game). It seems the lack of advance review copies caused a bit of a delay.
IGN published theirs. Deserved better
Holy shit! They brought back Super Turbo Turkey Puncher 3!? This was my jam in Doom 3.
‘SUPER TURBO TURKEY PUNCHER. THREEEEE!’
There’s a reference to the Big Hero 6 fistbump.
