@Foon Got Doom Running On A Pregnancy Tester
Guy runs 'Doom' on a pregnancy test and wait, what?
The tradition of running the legendary game Doom on various gadgets and appliances that were not originally designed for gaming is long, but this one takes the cake.
Foone, a programmer who likes reverse-engineering things and typically works with old hardware and software, has managed to run a fully functional game of Doom on an electronic pregnancy test.
After posting a video of the classic video game running on the tester over the weekend, on Monday Foone upped the ante and released a video of him actually playing Doom on the tester, using a wireless keyboard.

Foon says:
Yesterday I had a lot of retweets and reddit posts and such for playing Doom on a pregnancy test.
But as I explained then, it wasn't really PLAYING on a pregnancy test, it was just a video being played back, not an interactive game.
Well, now it is. It's Pregnancy Test Doom!

I tried zooming in and turning up the in-game gamma a bit, so you can see what's going on slightly better.
