Watch Out for Fireballs!

Watch Out for Fireballs! is a game club podcast, focused on retro and non-current games. Every week, we play a game in its entirety, then discuss its merits and flaws at length. Most episodes begin with a short sketch, and we're pretty liberal about keeping tangents in. But it ultimately comes down to: Why do we like (or dislike?) this game.

Episode 110: Doom II: Hell on Earth


Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross mow through Doom II: Hell on Earth.

It's time to talk smart about a game that (seems) dumb. Where did first-person shooters get their start? Well, not here. But for most of the 90s, FPSs were called "Doom Clones". Doom II saw id advancing their 3D trickery, and expanding on the success of their previous works. And it's mostly succcessful.
