This is hands down the best DOOM ID Software has made. The gore, music, visuals, and more are all spot on. It's totally worth the $60 you spend.

DOOM 2016, whether you call it an expansion of existing lore or a rebooting of the story for a modern audience, is a good game. It's not great though, as the run-and-gun pace and gore can only sustain gameplay for so long in a limited setting. It makes up for some of the repetitiveness, however, by providing fast and often tense battles that, even on the PS4, maintain a mostly high framerate.

As the best possible compromise between shooters of old and the new trends in the genre, DOOM is just the game for anyone craving that sweet hyperactive and ultraviolent action and is a game that has absolutely earned the right to have its title written in full-caps.

Id Software came up with an excellent gaming experience. A satisfying 15-hour single player experience that lasts wherever you look.

DOOM has done something I think most people would have considered impossible a year ago, bringing a full-featured AAA gaming experience to a device that you can take anywhere...

Doom 2016 is definitely a hit and miss, and after the not-so-successful third installment, id Software's efforts certainly paid off. A return to the good old mechanics and visuals is exactly what gamers wanted from the new DOOM. Add a hefty helping of brutal carnage, hordes of enemies and hectolitres of their blood spilled, along with a hyped-up metal soundtrack, and you have a totally unique gaming experience.

DOOM has no business being a good game, yet it may end of being one of 2016's best.

DOOM has a fantastic campaign but its multiplayer and Snapmap bring it down from absolute greatness.

Doom is a game that focuses on having a kickass campaign and tries to have a fun multiplayer but doesn't. The game also gives us a nice feature known as SnapMap that I didn't expect to be so good. Doom isn't perfect but it surely isn't a bad game. If you are looking for a different type of shooter or just a new game to add to the shelf, then Doom is an excellent choice. If you are looking for a multiplayer experience that will blow you away, then Doom probably isn't a good choice.

Overall, I feel that this is a solid addition to the DOOM franchise, and I am looking forward to what Bethesda has in store for the future of the series. If you are a fan of the game Killing Floor, then this is a game for you.

Guns, gore and demons. The classic DOOM is back and it's better than ever. With a glorious and immensely satisfying single player experience, DOOM is one of the best shooters of year. Shame it can't be said about the multiplayer, but at least with the addition of intuitive SnapMap you can create your very own Hell.

For those of us returning home for that rare visit, it's a fun game that'll bring you back to the good ol' days. For everyone else, it's just another game of Euchre..

…the verticality of DOOM's level design and the sheer audaciousness of the constant balls-to-the-wall action quash any notion of repetitiveness or mundanity that could usually be associated with such a simple game structure

id Software completely nailed the core experience of the single player campaign and although I did find myself suffering from the occasional craving of more detail and immersion in the story, by the time the credits rolled I had to put my controller down and take a breather. Only for a second before upping the difficulty and diving in again. What can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment.

The classic hellish game you love, with a few enhancements. First person shooter fans will love it.
