Doom Reviews
If you like a more-than-decent shooter and lots of blood splatters on your television screen, 'DOOM' remains a force to be reckoned with. I just wish the game was a little more fun to play. But be free to ignore my non-populist opinion, and buy this game. Regret your purchase, you won't.
Doom may not offer some gameplay mechanics that modern shooters heavily rely on, but it definitely provides everything a hardcore shooter fan has ever wished for. The game is filled with fire and blood, the gameplay is fast-paced and the visuals are cutting-edge. Welcome to Hell!

It still lacks atmosphere. It's still remarkably competent without actually pushing the genre forwards. It's still a multiplayer experience that I'm betting will shrink to a tiny community in months.
The multiplayer and SnapMap portions will likely improve over time, especially with the Season Pass content, as no one will want to purchase extra content until the multiplayer smooths out. The multiplayer aside, the true appeal to the game remains in the single-player campaign, which is how it was and should be with a DOOM title.
DOOM is almost everything I could have asked for. Its campaign has left my heart literally racing in my chest from sheer excitement. It's fast, impactful, and a damn good lot of fun. Multiplayer and SnapMap may be disappointing by comparison, but the perfection of its better half is greatly elevating and I cannot recommend DOOM enough. This is a first-person shooter you don't want to miss.
Your enjoyment of Doom is going to depend greatly on the mode you're playing and your acceptance of the tweaks to the classic formula. In multiplayer, you'll have fun as long as you keep in mind that this is a blend of every other multiplayer first-person shooter instead of simply being Doom with prettier graphics. If you're playing the campaign, it feels like a welcome evolution of the series, since the classic elements meld rather well with the modern touches. If your attention is on Snapmap, then you'll find that the game has some long legs thanks to an easy-to-learn system that has already produced loads of content for solo and multiplayer situations. Either way, you're getting a complete package that celebrates the pure adrenaline-pumping action that brought so many to the genre in the first place. Doom is absolutely a worthy entry to any genre fan's library.
The 2016 DOOM's rebellion is smaller than its predecessor, but still impressive: it is unabashedly itself. It's a game with confidence in the worth of revisiting its history and an earnest belief that doing so can result in much more than an empty exercise in nostalgia.
It's hard going back to the real world after a few hours with Doom. It will feel slow and mundane when compared to the experience of being an over the top, badass action hero, who destroys Hell one demon at a time; half the time with his cool arsenal of weapons, the other half with his hands! Sure, it won't create a revolution like the 1993 original, and some of its aspects (like the multiplayer) are flawed, but id Software's newest creation deserves carrying its heavy name, and is one of the few triple-A titles worthy of a full price-tag.
Doom is a big, loud, visceral experience that not only impresses visually with a silky-smooth framerate and detailed texture work, but which reaches into your soul and jacks up your heartrate as it does so. Some would say that things are a little bland in terms of plot, but playing Doom for the story would be like watching a baseball match because you're a fan of diamonds. The multiplayer is playable but a little less so than you'd expect, but that's more than made up for by the campaign. It's fast, fun, violent, addictive, and highly recommended.
Not the best shooter in the world but far from the worst, Doom returns to gory glory by delivering a solid - if standard - story-light single-player, a forgettable multiplayer mode and a third mode which plays out like Halo world building in the bowels of hell. If you are an FPS or Doom fan , you will love it but if FPS's aren't your thing, Doom isn't going to be the game to change that.
Doom is a fantastic single-player experience bundled with a weak multiplayer component. If you're looking for a fast, intense and fun shooter, you'll have a hard time finding anything better on the market than Doom. If you're hoping for something that carries that same intensity over to multiplayer, you'll be disappointed. Snap Map adds some extra value to the package, but at the end of the day, the real fun is slaughtering the forces of Hell with your super shotgun. It's not quite a return to the days of old, but it's still one of the best shooters on the market.
DOOM's standout single-player mode and an amazingly innovative map creation tool will make gamers new and old very happy
This is, in my honest opinion, the definitive First Person Shooter, locked and stocked with two smoking barrels. Get ready to fight like hell.
DOOM is a real game... if we ignore its multiplayer. The campaign is long, frantic, varied and spectacular. Control is a delight and SnapMap will allow players to do wonders. It is a gift for lovers of classic shooters and the DOOM saga.

I highly recommend playing DOOM because it managed to go back in time and capture the essence of classic FPS and innovate the game system with a deadly dose of evisceration and blood. DOOM is everything I expected from the return of an experience that marked my life as a player.

But if you enjoy honest action, this is a game that must not be missed in your collection and certainly does not make the great-father of the genre a bad name.

Generally speaking, DOOM is a good game. However, it’s important to note that it’s good, and not great, which is what we were all expecting and hoping for. It’s a game that surprisingly plays it safe and doesn’t do much to stand out from the crowded first person shooter genre.
Overall DOOM is one half of an impeccable package. If it shipped without any of the multiplayer at all I'd still believe it worthy of the score below; the tepid multiplayer does little to sway it on either side. For fans of single-player FPS campaigns DOOM is a juggernaut, and some of the most fun I've had in gaming for years. It's never going to grab you with an engrossing plot of spectacular linear set pieces, but the flawless combat ensures DOOM just never lets up. Now it's just fingers crossed time that Quake can get the same treatment.
