One of the best horror games ever.
But overall if your new to DOOM 3, as i am . Then this has to be one of the best games to pick up this year. Its 24.99 in most places. and its defo worth the investement.
You get a heck of alot for your money , And you get DOOM 3 in all its splendour. Up to date HD, DOOM 1 AND 2
Expansions packs for DOOM 3 .
Does it live up today ?
astonishingly the atmosphere in DOOM 3 alone is worth the experience. ITS damn scary, DOOM itself is one of the greatest, and probably one of the creators of the horror surivival genre. Its entertaining to the max. I was thinking maybe ID should of released this earlier in the summer, when their was no other big AAA titles on the release rather than OCT. BUT the fact remains the package is strong enough to attract classic and new consumers who never got to play the original. I only ever played DOOM, on the PC back in the 90s. Since then it left memories of being a terrorfying experience that was addictive and memorable. Everybody needs to play the game, its one of the father of FPS genre.
what the game needs is respect , even though it may feel dated in certain elements such as movement, and the some of the models. BUT. look past that because it was released in 2004, and your going to have a great time with it.. or a horrorfying one.
With soo many great games on their way and already out. IS DOOM BFG 3 really worth picking up ?
for an entertainment and FUN VALUE it certainly is. or maybe when it gets cheaper. But for myself personally who literally would love to replay the classic DOOM and play DOOM 3 which i never have. AND with RESIDENT EVIL 6 not being up to standards this year some may argue. ITS definetly a great horror game to pick up.
Other games in the genre such as dead space which ive also played, are horrorfying and scary . But DOOM for some reason takes the cake.
Its the whole notion of MARS , and HELL.
And satanic imagery , and its famous demons. With you the lone shooter against the supernatural. Not reall aliens.
The creatures in the game are memorable and for some of you older players, they have stuck in your head since 1993.
