RetroHellspawn Reviews: Brutal Doom *Bassy Audio, but full cut*
36***UPDATE*** -Description below-
Holy crap, this video finally cracked 1,000 views! I just want to say that I'm really glad that so many people watched this, I've got a few videos lined up, I've just been settling into a new job since I recently moved states and haven't had much time to work on videos. I promise that the next video will be much better, both audibly and the writing quality. The audio won't be all bass this time, it'll be properly mastered. :)
*******UPDATE 2********
I've reuploaded this video, you can find the better quality version here. :D

Hi everyone! Welcome to my first step into the review world, excluding my "recommends" video which was thrown together last minute in hopes to signal boost a kickstarter project which did succeed, but before I made the video.
So what is Brutal Doom? Watch the video and you'll find out!
Cheats:
-sv_cheats 1
(when enabling cheats, I recommend enabling it before starting your new game because it activates after "the next game", so loading a save doesn't work because saves save your game progress as well as all system settings)
-give all
-give bfg_10000
-give rail_gun
-give health
-give armor
-give berserk
-god (who the hell needed this cheat who didn't already know it?)
-map [insert map name here]

In case you didn't notice in the video, not every frame of animation needed for Brutal Doom is in the HD pack because Brutal Doom has a lot of custom frames of animation, such as the zombies on the floor shooting at you and everything else having to do with limb mutilation. If you're using Zandronum to play Brutal Doom (which I am for this video and for regular use (obviously)), you need to download the Doomsday version and put it in the skins folder of the Zandronum folder and it will auto-load it. You can get Zandronum here: http://zandronum.com/
You can obtain all of the music from the doommetalvol4.wad file in the Brutal Doom downloads section. To do this, you need some form of wad file opener. I use SLADE which you can find here: http://slade.mancubus.net/ As far as everything except for "Mischief" and "Doomed". You can find "Mischief" here: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/558464 and "Doomed" here: http://ocremix.org/song/515
Just a slight plug, OCRemix is an awesome website. :) Give it a shot, this is a link to all remixes in games with the word Doom in it:

Last and... possibly least, the DooM Comic! :D

Before YouTube freaks out on this video, this video falls under fair use as criticism, as that's what this video is, it's a critique of a mod of a game.
Just a minor note for anyone who's curious; I don't actually record in 1080p because I don't have a 1080p monitor at the moment, I have a 900p monitor, so It won't be 1080p yet, but it'll be better than it is in this video. I'm basically just putting the video in the editor and having it export in 1080 the get around YouTube's crappy compression system, though certain commenters seem to think that 1080 and 240 look exactly the same. Not that I blame them, YouTube has a horrible compression system and I wish they were more like DailyMotion, being capable of 60 fps and not compressing it to the point of complete shit.
