DOOM Classic updated with Retina graphics, now a universal app

DOOM Classic, id Software's iOS port of the seminal 90s first-person shooter, has just been updated to version 2.0. It's a fairly major update that brings support for Retina Display graphics and support for the iPad and iPad 2. At last, DOOM Classic is a universal app that you can play on the iPad.

I never played DOOM on the PC back in the day -- never had a machine that could handle it -- but I played through the iPhone version last year and enjoyed it a lot. I'm looking forward to giving it another runthrough on my iPad.

DOOM Classic is US$1.99 on the App Store. If you already own the game, the update to Retina Display graphics and iPad support is free.

Spent SO many hours with Doom. Still the best as the controls were so simple and the first to make multiplayer great. Used to take a tiny 4-port hub with me to conferences. Today's mulitplayers are so much more sophisticated but actually not as much [simple] fun.
Chris, something you have GOT to try: get at least one other person (with Doom Classic) and try the Deathmatch mode with everyone using the rocket launcher. I know how this is going to sound, but it really is great fun/big laughs to come around the corner only to get surprised with a rocket to the face! :-)
