Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
I was reading about Tetris in a PDF 4 days ago, and wondered if Doom would be possible.
At this rate I should be playing Mario 64 in a PDF this weekend
Soon we’ll be playing crysis in a pdf
At this point it is safe to say that doom is the most cross platform software to ever exist.
Pretty sure curl is the actual winner here
what a gross response
Technically, "hello world" is number one.
Three things are certain in life: Death, Taxes, and Doom running on things you didn't think could run Doom.
At this point, Skyrim and Doom are both competing with each other to port into the most preposterous items.
Skyrim has nothing on Doom. The crazy Skyrim "ports" aren't ports at all but just the opening video.
Doom is on everything with a screen and a CPU.

Doom on Microwave:
doom running on a pregnancy test
doom running on a Magellan Roadmate GPS made in 2008
doom running on a thermostat using its ancient ARM9 CPU
doom running on an IPAC2 bank ATM
doom runningon an Intel Edison
doom running on a TI nSpire calculator
doom running on a god damned oscilloscope
doom running on a kitchen bump bar made in circa 2001
Most of those are legit, but I do take issue with the pregnancy test one. Replacing the original electronics with entirely new hardware doesn't really count. A pregnancy test screen only has 3 or 4 LCD segments.
The smart bulb one at least partially counts, since it's using the original processor from the bulb just with a display and buttons added.
Yeah, in order for it to count as "running doom", it should be required for the actual hardware to run the game's code.
If you're just using whichever device to display it, "bad apple" should be the benchmark.
That one is not actually running doom on bacteria. That is only using bacteria as some sort of screen.
Portable Doom Facsimile
Gamer equivalent of getting Linux to run on a toaster.
But can it run Crysis?
It's only a matter of time.
