Show of the Week: Doom and 5 Retro Shooters They Should Remake Right Now

Grandaddy of first person shooters Doom returns with a reboot full of nasty monsters, massive guns and ultraviolence. Show of the Week has Doom in its sights, and demands modern-day remakes for five further retro shooters. Subscribe! http://www.tinyurl.com/SubToOxbox

These old-school shooters include Blood, which was full of pop-culture in-jokes, horror movie references, and had some fantastically macabre weaponry, including a potent aerosol flamethrower, a skull on a stick and a creepy voodoo doll.

There's also Lucasarts’ 1997 wild west shooter Outlaws, which followed the exploits of a retired US Marshal out for revenge on the bandit gang who killed his wife and kidnapped his daughter.

What Outlaws did particularly well was capturing the essence of a hard-boiled spaghetti western, between the cutscenes, with their hand-drawn animation style and the excellent score, and the hero himself: a sort of ultra-violent Abraham Lincoln. Four score and seven bullets ago, bandits.
