Are the wads in the Doom Classic Complete bundle different from the BFG edition wads?

[gordonfreeman01]

Title basically. Am just wondering if the classic complete bundle ones are the uncensored wads and those bundled in BFG are censored+Doom 2 extra XBLA episode ported. BFG has ultimated doom+doom 2 so this question concerns only these two as I don't think the master levels come with Doom 2 BFG.

The IWADs are the ones from circa 1993 as far as I know.
What other 'BFG' varients are there (besides Doom 3).

[gordonfreeman01]

Doom 3 comes with censored versions of ultimate doom and doom 2 and the Doom 2 IWAD also includes functionality to access a no rest for the living IWAD first ported to PC (and afaik only available in) Doom 3 BFG. If the classic versions are available in this pack that is exactly what I was looking for!

If you are thinking of bfg edition for using doom mods at ANY point, dont. The edited wads break all mods for doom 1 and 2 , and its not worth the buy because of that.

I am interested in the bfg edition's one pack has all convenience and its extras but do want the original wads for playing vanilla doom 1+2+extra episodes with the doomsday engine's excellent graphics, sound and gameplay enhancement upgrades. Based on what you're all telling me here, the doom classic complete pack contains the original wads and is worth the buy! Was wondering whether I had done the right thing buying BFG and this pack since didn't get time to test the classic pack wads yet.

I'll have to check it out (BFG that is) as I got the 'id software Super Pack' ages ago.
- It had everything except Quake IV at the time.

Green Man Gaming is selling all Doom games at a great discount currently, you can use coupon code "GMG20-50Z66-SCTEU" to get BFG for $8 if interested, the title does go on sale quite frequently though, got if for $5 off Get Games a few months back.

Doom3 bfg is basically just 1 or 2 bug fixes, better textures, and like a few extra map. Not entirely worth it if you already own doom 3.
