Doom on the original Playstation

We are always getting something new in the museum and now the day we got this classic game on the PS1. Doom was released on the Playstation 1 system in 1995 and is a combination of Doom and Doom 2 with multiplayer features, it does not include split screen mode but instead you had to connect two machines together with a separate cable, but it just made the game more true to the original version on PC. The difference between the PC and Playstation version is that the MIDI music from the PC was replaced with actual recordings of sounds. For example, there is a bee in a bottle, children crying, creepy horse breathing down the neck and more to create the perfect ambient for the game, also the rock/metal theme in the PC version was replaced with more scary and atmospheric music. The graphics, however, was not much improved upon due to limitations of the PS1, for example, there was some levels of the game was shortened and use lower resolution Textures. Otherwise this is an excellent version of the game and completely trouble-free playing with just inserting the CD and start playing without having to worry about installing drivers and whatnot like you did on the PC version.
