I see many comments around here, talking about better FPS in the time doom 2 appeared.
I read Dark Forces, System shock, Hexen and so on... Hexen is an follow up by ID itself.
As i remember these days by myself, the mentioned games weren't made yet
there was wolf3d, doom, doom2, some mods of doom and wolf 3d. In the Shareware sector games in the same time were Corridor 7 or Blake Stone both lacking the graphic and level design complexity of doom2.
I was a kid when doom2 hit the stores here, and i EVERYBODY wanted to have it, for its gameplay and graphics. And the main reason was the violence i have to admit. It really set the idea of for example slicing enemies into bits with the chainsaw.
Also no game in this time had this awesome room-feeling.
This game was a real groundbreaking one for the FPS genre....
And dudes, why you wanna mouse support? the games not meant for this...
p.s.: I just remember the release dates of the games here in Germany, they maybe different in US or so...
