I’m modding GTA 5 every day in a quest to either transform it into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely. Come back tomorrow to find out what new horrible thing I’ve done to Rockstar’s baby, or check out what I got up to earlier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I really don’t know how to build up to this one. Grand Theft Auto 5 is Doom now, okay? I put in a mod that imports DOOM2.wad into GTA 5 and now that’s what the game is. There are demons. The game is first person. I have a minigun and a BFG. That’s the truth of the matter and we’re all just going to have to find some way to live with it.<\/p>\n

The mod is Doom 2 in GTA 5 Hell On Earth<\/a> (D2IGTA5HOE), and it does all those things I said. Hit F9 and the game you are playing shifts from GTA 5\u2014usually a third-person open-world acting game\u2014to Doom 2, an FPS from 1994. You need to provide your own .wad\u2014everybody be cool. No one call the cops.<\/p>\n

The world remains, mind you. You don’t warp to Doom 2’s levels. Instead, you roam Los Santos with an arsenal of weapons from id’s seminal shooter (gross). You can take on taxis with your super shotgun, fight cops with a plasma cannon. It’s two great tastes that taste incomprehensible together. Hit F10 and the game goes into Hell On Earth mode\u2014authentic Doom 2 enemies start manifesting in the street.<\/p>\n

One issue, of course, is that F10 is also my button for activating flossing and Superman mode, so I can’t play Doom 2 GTA 5 Edition without a full quarter of my screen being taken up by a (still utterly Arabic) flossing UI screen and various Kryptonian powers sometimes activating. One of those is super speed when I sprint, though, which is at least appropriate for Doom Guy.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here’s a gif of me fighting demons and armed furries at an airport with Doom 2 weapons while a tornado closes in.<\/p>\n
