Does anybody here own DOOM for Saturn? I am picking up a Saturn in the week and I'd like DOOM for it, but I have heard some reviewers bitching like crazy about it, although the amateur 'reader reviews' I find usually aren't so bad.

So it's the same as the PlayStation version, only without the lighting effects, and a somewhat dodgy framerate? Still playable?

I do prefer to play games on consoles to PC, and I *love* the sounds and music in the PlayStation version, but I no longer have have and have no intention to buy a PlayStation.

http://www.classicdoom.com/ details exactly what Doom for Sega Saturn includes. Have seen some gameplay examples from YouTube (so you can do a search on there and see if you can find those videos, otherwise I'll dig 'em up), but haven't played the game myself.

EDIT: Oh, I see you already found those YouTube videos. ;-)

Indeed I did, thanks for looking for em, though. =)

My brother in law who has my old Saturn is giving me it back this week, so I might as well pick it up. I love the PSX version, but don't have a PSX. I'm sure this'll be close enough.
