Recently, I have been pushing myself to play through games, I say push, for the most part, I enjoy it. But never have I wanted to drop a game faster than #DOOM2 on the #GBA. If I consider the first one to be a decent port, this one is pretty shockingly bad.
Sure, I am playing on Ultra Violence mode, the 'Gentleman's way to play Doom' (Thanks, CV11), but everything about this version is off. The controls are odd. The vertical aiming seems off. Enemy AI stop doing anything at a certain distance away, allowing you to snipe them. But the weirdest thing is the armour glitch.
For some reason, when you finish a stage, your armour % is correctly displayed but doesn't function. So I am starting a new stage with 200% armour that doesn't degrade or give me protection. Honestly, it is incredibly frustrating!
I am going to have to push through on determination alone on this one...
