And that is exactly how doom with Kinect Motion Controls would have been.
You beat the first stage of Doom 2.......With your face. Honestly man...I've never been more proud.
Playing Doom II with that... thing is certainly the best moment in any Oddware video.
oh my god, Doom II with that controller is glorious
RE: the two stages of click, many pinball machines have what are called "staged flippers", where you can push the button half way down to trigger the bottom flippers, and all the the way to trigger the top flippers. This lets you cradle balls on the bottom flippers while going crazy on the upper playfield during multiball. Crazy they included that!
That was some intense thrusting at the end there, my man.
Only the finest in thrusting for you all, that's my motto.

PC thrusting pro.
Clint will you be buying the new Ataribox?
I would call it Master Thrusting... Ok, I'll just see myself out.
Thrust 101
The chin slap to open the door, epic.
I got so nostalgic watching LGRs videos that I changed my laptop's theme to Classic and turned down the resolution so it looks ridiculously retro (well not truly retro but I grew up with Windows 98 and XP computers so it looks like childhood to me).
Nice!
Grab the free VMWare Player program and use Windows 98 through that for an even more intense nostalgiagasm :)
Thanks! Great suggestion. Love your channel!
Lazy Game Reviews i still remember having run all games thru dos
+MingusTale windows 98 and Monopoly is were i started at 6 years old. ( i wish i would have learned more when i was younger and smarter)
@@LGR Oh. Eff.
A three year old commit made me feel really old.
Started with the atari home computer in its 8 bit glory... upgrading to win 3.1 was amazing
Any way to get my laptop running native like 3.1 😅.
You're not a real man until you beat a level of Doom 2 using the Thrustmaster Wizzard.
The future of gaming...
I'll take this over Kinect.
The past of future gaming.

plus the WiiU and psvita
Who needs a touch screen
When your face is on a keyboard
That is true immersion
Thrustmaster sounds like a condom brand.
*COUGH!* Steering wheels for sim-racers. *COUGH!*
10 Stars out of 5!
"Here's a pinba-"
"Can it play doom"
"Yes. Yes it can."
You've found the *real* nightmare-mode for Doom 2: playing the entire game with this thing alone. God, it was painful just watching you try.
Waaaaaay gimickie, but memorable in its look and purpose. Something that could only have come from the pinball craze of the early to mid 90s.
The fact that I expect with gleeful anticipation the "Doom Test" as an LGR staple speaks to how much and often I peruse these videos. It literally never gets old.
Also sat back like... Thrustmaster innuendo in 5... 4...
It's weird how it attaches, I'd assume it would be more a clamp or crocodile clip.
But can't you map keys to the buttons? You could try some Pinball Fantasies if so :D boot up an amiga emulator :D
Larry I find your comments almost always unexpectedly
Guru Larry!
Conor Patton
Hello :D
Larry, I see your comments on almost every video I watch
darthtokah
but,do you watch my videos?
Hehe he heh heheh.... you said Thrustmaster :P
.... and oh man.... Balls Of Steel :D
settle down, Bevis, uh huh huh
I remember playing Space Cadet pinball on Windows XP.
"hidden test"
Clint frantically bashing his face into the keyboard to unlock the doors just made my day.
Playing Doom II Like a Boss!
Thanks to the Wizzard Pinball Controller, that deaf dumb blind keyboard sure plays a mean... Doom 2!?
I don't think I can properly express... I mean I barely have an interest in random tech, but your videos are really an anxiety cure. Don't ever change.
It's kind of funny that I watched this last week and a few days later I found this exact same set complete and unused at a thrift store, instantly bought it of course.
Only differences I can see with the contents is that I had a 2nd install guide with the contents looking different, the disc wasn't in a jewel case but in a paper sleeve and to "stick" it on the keyboard there is an unused set of velcro stickers as well.
Note: Packard Bell is NOT good nostalgia, unless I'm remembering getting my first PC repair jobs that made money :)
I have metallic spheres.
this channel is great because growing up my family never had a computer until 1998 so i was always a console gamer. its really cool to see all these games. some i remember from being in magazines, most are unknown to me.
3:57 Let's go thrifting!
came for pizza stayed for reviews xD
I never knew that the "3D space pinball" that came with a few of my computers was actually taken from a maxis game. I think it came with Windows me and maybe xp. The me I actually still have, its a Compaq. I'll have to boot it up and see what it has on it. Unfortunately, on my xp machine, the hard drive is all but dead, and I think I took it out to see if I could plug it in to my gaming PC, but I didn't realize that it wasn't comparable with the new SATA standard. It was a dell, so it also could just be some proprietary connection to make you stick with them...
Ah! I had one of these! I only really used it for like... a week though, because my keyboard was too heavy/noisy to use the tilt things much (because it would make loud banging sounds on my desk), and I remember them coming off real easily too, so they felt really loose. It's a great idea for a peripheral though, it just was too awkward for me to use!
Only on LGR will I see things I never before thought I wanted to see, such as playing Doom with a pinball controller. Epic
the end of this video was the best :D
11:55 "They're shooting each other!" Yes, this was a problem exposed in the famous computer science paper "Doom as an Interface for Process Management".
In minecraft its Twitch plays Arms (zombie attacks skeleton and vice versa
Seeing those 3dfx and Aureal icons in your systray made me really happy.
Playing Doom 2 with 90's motion controls.
That last 5 minutes was the best.
That Maxis collection video was one of the first of yours that I saw; awesome to see something from there come full circle. Especially something like this.
That it is :) Nice to see some people here that remember that!
I love the SkiFree t-shirt
Great episode of LGR odd-ware! Keep it up! I love how you tried to use the tilt sensors for Dom!
Wow I totally remember playing Space Cadet when I was younger and wasn't allowed to be on the internet XD
Neat! I don't know why I never noticed this video before. I came here from your review of your new Pinball Controller.
Whoa, Packard Bell keyboard. Our 486 was a Packard Bell, It had that same type of keyboard too. Man, your videos can give me a overdose of nostalgia if I am not careful... :)
1:55 Royal Flush was one of my all-time favorite pinball sims! It was just the one game, but it was a faithful simulation of an old real-life Gottlieb table from the 1970s. The Mac version had been commissioned and then canceled by Broderbund, and the developers released it as shareware. I played the heck out of that thing at the time.
LGR - You make my super nerdy side that loves all things old-school PC and gadgets all giggity and happy.
The Doom gameplay looks like a Twitch Plays Doom simulator.
Did they get the name from the The Who song Pinball Wizard?
That's what I was thinking, fam.
"That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball".
Christ, I haven't laughed that loud since... well dunno, which obviously mean "long ago". Anyway, the idea to try out Doom II with those TWPC thingies was nothing short of comedy brilliance. Thanks Clint!
who needs VR when you can play Doom like your pedaling a boat XD
Now that's just badass. I have the ThrustMaster's driving controls (wheel, transmissions and pedals) and I should totally play Doom with them.
Loved the omikron wallpaper! Keep up the good work
That Intro was amazing.
wow that tilt function was futuristic for its time/price.
The ending made me laugh so hard it gave me the hiccups ;).
Oh god the part when you play Doom with it just cracks me up.
Hey playing Doom 2 with the pinball controller was boss. I watched some of your reviews quite some time ago, but I stumbled upon your channel again and yeah the pizza video got me to subscribe and now I am checking out some more stuff.
Good show!
"oh crap what shoots i forgot....i think that dose".....haha i lost my shit! awesome man
I love these episodes. Keep up the great work
Best thing you've done on your channel to date.
I remember having this when i was young. If I remember right, my friend had bought one too. At the time it seemed very realistic. We used to buy failed/failing peripherals and game systems when we were kids. I remember saving up money and buying a Game.com. Also a VirtualBoy... and an Atari Jaguar. I still think the VirtualBoy was the coolest failed technology I bought. I probably still have it in a box somewhere.
Motion controls are obviously the future of gaming. (11:31)
In other news, yeah, the game port. You know. The port for games. That was on your sound card for some reason.
Dude your videos are so fun to watch! That's one awkward way to play Doom.
I love this guy
Love the oddware videos. keep em comming
Oh man, those physically exposed encoder-pendulums are *wild.* Oh the days before cheap solid-state accelerometers.
The fact that the manual and box have pictures of IBM Model M's on them just makes me wonder what kind of bodybuilders designed this product.
Trying to play doom with that thing was wonderfully ridiculous. I love it!
Lot of thrusting with that controller it seems. Good, good, pretty good.
I have a nerdgasm every time I see that a new oddware review is up.
Oh I think I played a pinball game like full tilt pinball back in the day. Recognized that field!
this is kinda neat. if i ever found it for a decent price, i'd definitely pick it up. could be fun. also, i haven't thought of omikron, the nomad soul is as long as i can remember. thanks for bringing that back for me!
That's not a pinball controller. It's an FPS fitness simulator-kinda. You 're totally right. I would love to see you using it for an driving sim as well!
That ending was amazing.
Someday LGR will get pulled over because hes running doom on his tesla and has the controls mapped to the car controls.
Holy S, this is my new favorite lgr episode, way too funny
Heh, Chuck Norris has beaten Doom 1, 2 and 3, on highest difficulty on Intel 8086, without a single death with broken guitar hero controller
Is it just me or does that "Wizzard" logo look more than a little similar to Blizzard's logo?
All they r really DOIN is switching the w with a b
And addin a r
flufflepuff no they won't need to add an R. Blizzard Wizzard, they need to add an L
so what i messed up
I love the idea. Granted, the execution is not the best… but a modern one using the benefits on modern technology & Pinball Arcade.
That. That would be utterly sublime :)
(Oh, and trying it with Doom 2? That has to be one of the greatest things I've ever seen. EVER. :))
I needed to see Doom II played with Wizard. Freakin' awesome...
and here end my LGR Marathon, thanks!
12:17 - Ugghhhh, UGH! GO FORWARD!
That sounds soooo suggestive. :P
Nice beard ! (it's back !)
(also, UT99 music is always welcome)
your Doom playing was funny. nice idea playing with this FPS shooter
That Doom bit was absolutely awesome :D I can already see how those hardcore oldgamers are doing speedruns of doom, on a hardest difficulty, using this :D
LOL @ Clint headbutting his keyboard and it working!
great ending lmao
The Thrustmaster -- turns DOOM into an aerobic exercise
Packard Bell, I used to have one of those with Windows 3.1, the memories.
I lost my shit when you started pushing the keyboard with your FACE XD
This controller brings a whole new level of authenticity to Doom 2. It's like you're really trying to push a 250 lb space marine forward!
Because those light plastic peaces keep swinging inside
*You get a true earthquake pinball experience*
Love the UT99 music in the background
Oh I have those! They never ever worked though, and I tried back then several times, I guess they just came broken from the package and we never got around to ask for a replacement. My dad, being a pinball fan, bought those like in '95-'96. My version has what you called the "UK box", but it came with Full Tilt Pinball here in Argentina.
clint, you should make a t-shirt with that controller on it (or whatever other iconic oddware) that says "this is the future, guys!" :D
I laughed so hard at the beginning of the video, when you've tried to play Doom with this "oddtroller". :D
Other than that, I would love to have such accessory. It would be cool to watch for others at me and yank. :D
And, by the way, love your videos. :)
this should've been the controller for the Wii U
Just get the Pro controller like normal people.
Joke
Oh we so need more games being tested with this controller. It's amazing, haha
Think how much fun it would be to play Doom II deathmatch so that everyone playing would have these controllers. :D
I took some real inspiration from this video and used some Wii remotes, a keyboard and a piece of software called Glovepie to play Epic Pinball. It didn't work half the time but it was still pretty cool.
I'm a sucker for gimmicky control schemes.
This is really neat. If they ever release this again, I would maybe buy it.
Totally. Build it with some better-quality parts and make it USB and I'd buy one.
Thats the pro Doom II controler of the era, unknown until now
