 +Doom is a series of first-person shooters created by id Software. Each part focuses on a nameless marine acting on behalf of Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC) and fighting against hordes of demons and the undead. 
 +The first part of the series, released in 1993, is considered to be the pioneer of FPS (first-person shooter) games, although other titles representing the genre have been created before. Nevertheless, Doom was one of the first personal computer games to offer 3D graphics, three-dimensional mobility, support for player modifications and multiplayer networking.

 +As the group was running on a strict spending plan, they couldn't manage the cost of genuine firearms to model their plans after, so they made a trip to Toys R Us to buy Nerf weapons and different toys. Clearly, the firearms were reskinned from their unique, splendid, and beautiful appearances to coordinate with the game's more dull and smudged tone.

-====== Network Overloads ====== +
- +
-The rising prominence of Doom was such at the time that it caused an extreme drop in efficiency in organizations and college campuses far and wide.  +
- +
-Representatives would utilize organization time to play the multiplayer together, which eased back down and even over-burden the organizations. This turned out to be such a tremendous issue that organizations and colleges had to set rules for both when and how long individuals could play the game, with some in any event, venturing to impede its utilization all together.
