Tonight's game on OpenPOWER: Doom64EX and Doom64EX-Plus
However, unlike most of the re-creations we've talked about before, there's no getting around it: if you're not playing the remaster you'll need an N64 ROM. And that's all I'm going to say about that. If you have the N64 cartridge and a dump of it, play Doom64EX (it can't play the remaster); if you bought the remaster and have the data files, play EX-Plus (it can't play the original).
