User Rating: 7.5 | DOOM 3 PC
I’m an old school gamer who played the original DOOM when it was first released so the anticipation of this game has been killing me. I’m sorry to say that I’m somewhat disappointed. Yes, visually, DOOM 3 is absolutely stunning. These are the best graphics I’ve ever seen in a game and I was surprised that I could set the game settings so high and still experience good frame rates. The sound is very good; especially with the surround sound activated and there have been a few scary moments. With all of that being said here’s my beef with DOOM 3: Where’s the fun? The story is not engaging; the level design is not that great and I was bored of the game after the first hour or so. I’ve played several times again since the first day and I usually don’t last more than 30 minutes before I’m bored again. DOOM 3 reminds me of Unreal II. Pretty to look at but not so exciting. It’s definitely not worth $54.99 plus tax.
