Nine Ball is rotation pool. The balls are pocketed in numbered order. The only ball that means anything, that wins it, is the 9. Now, the player can shoot eight trick shots in a row, blow the nine and lose. On the other hand, the player can get the 9 in on the break, if the balls spread right, and win. Which is to say that luck plays a part in 9-Ball. But for some players... luck itself is an art.

:)

I think Doom was the better quote.

Heh...so that means that players can engage in nerve-wrecking competitions of setting up their opponent in bad shots/angles, rather than trying to pocket balls? ;-)

Now there's an obscure reference. Very nice.

What's better than Doom?
It is small.
It is simple.
It is a word used for destruction and death at once.

I vote Doom.

When I was four and my dad came home and said, "Hey, Joe, what does this spell out?" then held out the CD case (Collector's Edition) back in 2005, I replied with the legend:

"Ooom!"

DEAD

Evil Unleashed

Wolfenstein II (Woulda been cool if they used this engine for a direct sequel! Could never replace Doom, of course.)

Immolation. That name also belongs to one of my favorite death metal bands. It's fitting I think.


Great band and name but no immolation occurs in the game, there's hardly even any fire at all!

Damn... good point. It's funny that a game about hell and demons features almost no fire. And no death by burning. Pretty strange actually. Never thought about it before. I'm trying to think of an instance with fire but... there is none. Wtf is that about O_o

Arch-viles set you on fire don't they?


Oh right. Ha, take that Goatlord! There is immolation after all! Now I can sleep well knowing there is in fact death from fire in Doom. Excellent!

Don't forget the guy being cooked in human BBQ, but since it's not in Doom 1 maybe it doesn't count..

A title 'Kill' would fit in this category too, it's even simplier than doom.

Mayhem
Possessed
Diabolic

Something simple and to the point. Nothing can ever beat DOOM though. Such a good name, seriously.

edit: This could actually have been a cool "Doom" box cover hehe
