I am very interested to know your source for this :V

Sorry I didn't see your post before this, DW's shitty unread post marking system (which I think Linguica fixed?) made me miss it.

Anyway, that pic is from the March 1995 issue of GameFan.

Some old acquaintances of mine from the time actually went that year and saw this thing. I know they have way better pictures than that postage stamp sized one from the mag, as I remember seeing them at the time. I've been trying to get in contact with them again to see if I can get a hold of a copy of the pictures. I've had no luck so far, but if I do manage to acquire a higher quality picture, I plan on posting it here and the Doom Wiki as well.

Would love to see It, because all this Is just so cheesy and Interesting.

That is a Demon before cyberization. That would make a good Doom 4 monster. They could still claw the crap out of you, but have no fireball attacks.

Yes, someone already brought this up. But as long as you're bumping this old thread...

Any luck with this? And if you do get your hands on them, could this FMV stuff qualify for its own wiki article?

We cover it on the article for 3DO.

0:25 and no shit was given on that day by the audience...

anyway, looks fucking hilarious, it seems like a cosplayers show

Actually nevermind, that monster was different. Found the video though. Only similarities seem to be the fuzzy boots.

I love how it gives off the vibe of "Old people who don't actually know their source trying to make something hip and cool"

3rd of 4th comment down: "Better than the movie."

I'm struggling to agree with that, but yeah... I think ultimately, I'm leaning on that side of the fence myself.

[Clonehunter]

By the way: The M60 "Jax"/Doomguy is holding: Is that the same Nerf Rambo gun used for the Plasma Rifle painted black? Or did it come in black and green versions? Or is it a different toy?

Not entirely true, one of the stuffy looking guys in the audience looks like he's gonna speed dial his lawyer if the actor so much as touches his Armani.

I'm really sad these derpy FMVs never came to be. I could just imagine the "story" they'd shoehorn in being Repercussions-of-Evil-meets-Zelda-CDi level of wonderment. Also that Notsocyberdemon looks like he's about to do that thing where they exhale air onto people's bellies, but he forgot your supposed to lift the shirt up first.

Is that guy on the right suppose to be the Doom guy?

[The Civ]

Some of these pictures seem to imply that the FMV's would try to shoehorn in more storyline.
Assuming that guy on the left is supposed to be Doomguy, and considering that the woman being carried away appears that they would still be alive, then I'd like to think that the FMV's would have some half assed love interest/damsel in distress story crammed into it.

[Koko Ricky]

You know, as corny as that costume is, it's not a terrible representation of the Baron. It makes me think that a reboot of the Doom movie with elaborate prosthetics and makeup and puppets and shit would be fun. Oh wait, didn't the original film use traditional effects for at least some of the monsters?

[Impie]

I'm just waiting for the custom sprite art that adds him to the game.


Preferably better than this.

[Jaxxoon R]

I kind of want to put him in Deem 2 now.

Also, he's wearing pants aaaa why does the demon have jeans

Maybe it's just a very ugly zombie?

I think we just found the missing link between Doom and the Doom movie.

Still a better love story than Twilight.

That would be a great background picture for the site, along with that non-cyberdemon head.

I agree. That might work nicely.

I got bored I guess.

[Clonehunter]

The more I see of this,the more I really want to see more. It's look like they went further than just some test shots, if they have what appears to be at least a four person cast and four different looking costumes for each (Baron, corpse, Doomguy?, Doomgirl).

I smell new Avatars


edit:

I dunno.

It appears the monster has a hostage

Eh, I think the 3DO demon is supposed to be a budget Cyberdemon but without the cyber parts.

More like a mate, after rescuing her from that burning building.

"My hero!"

[VGA]

It's a human in a demon suit, he infiltrated that building, planted a bomb and rescued the love of his life!

So in the end, Doomguy really was the Demon(s)?

[Quasar]

The fact this was in front of a green screen lends credence to the Usenet post from 1995 describing that some form of video was on display at that year's 3DO conference. This contradicts Heineman's earlier statement that there was *never* any video work done. That had to have been mistaken. I'd suggest this was probably a single sequence done for the conference to help do the "attracting of investors" for the additional planned stuff that would actually go into the game, and was obviously unsuccessful.
