Doomworld is a news website dedicated to the computer game ''Doom'', having been founded in 1998. Up until 2015, it was hosted by AtomicGamer (TeleFragged LLC) and is independently managed by a small staff of game fans with the help of many contributors. In addition to news, it provides informational resources about ''Doom'' and related games, hosting of ''Doom''-related websites, and a community forum with over 15,000 registered users and 1,400,000 posts . Among its ''Doom'' resources and features are: * /idgames Archive Database – a web-based frontend to the public ''Doom'' file archive hosted by Gamers.org. As of July 2013, over 15,000 ''Doom'' mods and WAD's are in the database. * Source ports and utilities listings – documenting most known Doom source ports and utilities * 5 Years of Doom – celebrating the game's fifth anniversary, including interviews with John Romero, Tim Willits, and several notable ''Doom'' WAD creators, as well as the release of the ''Doom Bible'' * 10 Years of Doom – a follow-up to the ''5 Years'' feature including several articles about the game's history, and a list of over 100 best WADs of all time * Cacowards – a yearly feature published since 2004 aiming to recognize the best new WAD releases of the year. The site received some mention in mainstream media in 1999, due to the controversy surrounding the Columbine High School massacre and shooters Eric Harris's and Dylan Klebold's obsession with ''Doom''. It was one of the first websites to post an editorial defending ''Doom'', and representatives from the site participated in discussions on ''Good Morning America'' and CNN. The site also contains links to hosted sites, which many are no longer maintained. It obtained permission from John Carmack to redistribute the ''Doom'' engine under the terms of the GNU General Public License in 1999. ==External links== *(Doomworld ) *(Doomworld directory ) – Doomworld's file archive on AtomicGamer *("No easy explanation for Columbine killings" ) – CNN article referencing Doomworld (April 28, 1999) via the Wayback Machine *("In Troubled Waters" ) – editorial after the Columbine massacre 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doomworld」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
