Yeah 32X, with it's border and lack of a bunch of levels and monsters. oh oh and don't forget the bad sound.
I actually played it on the 32X first.
Shows how much of a console gamer and Sega fan I am :)

Defenitly, 4 player Co-op online and split screen, ranked multiplayer(or split screen), the ability to save at any time. It makes a damn good package. However, I'd choose pc because of 2, ultimate doom, programs that make it look better like windoom, but xbla is a much better option than most on this list.

God, the SNES version sucked to high heaven. Don't even bother...

PC version is the best.

It is already maxed out on options!

The PC version (especially with a source port) is definitely your best bet, I'd imagine. However, the N64 version also has some really nice features.

as much as i love 3do.. the 3do version of doom is def. the worst i have ever played.. the screen has to be set super small, and it runs really bad. the Snes version is even better. I like the jaguar version the best!!

i use the arcade stick though, makes it fun, also i like the horrible music, gives the game a more gritty feel... who cares about lack of levels (unless your not like me and havent beeten every version of doom...)

I'd say PC mainly cause its the original they didn't need to compromise anything like the ports to other consoles. Supposbly though I hear the Japanese Saturn version of Doom is far superior to the other Saturn ports.
