Doom Reviews
DOOM makes a brilliant comeback with fun, classic game play!
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 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...
Id Software came up with an excellent gaming experience. A satisfying 15-hour single player experience that lasts wherever you look.

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.
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.
A package that's worthy of any gamer.
Doom is back to its fast, frantic and gruesome best. Marine! Get ready to kick some demon scum ass as this is one of the surprise hits of the year, find out why in our review.
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.
With a revived, classic feel, an easy-to-use community-focused map editor (SnapMap), and even the ability to unlock classic DOOM maps to play through, this is how a reboot is done.
Doom is a fantastic power fantasy that is great for any fan of first person shooters.
DOOM is a glorious return to form for the franchise. The game oozes classic design while improving itself with new-gen hardware. Exciting combat, glorious kills and enough heavy metal to give you lead poisoning, demons beware! Doom guy has returned!
id Software beweist mit bravour wie man einen Oldschool nach 2016 verfrachtet. Die Kampagne liefert nach einem holprigen Start ein Feuerwerk an Action, Gore und Dämonen und auch der Multiplayer und Snapmap sind absolut gelungen und bieten im Gesamtpaket einen der besten Shooter der letzten Jahre. Von uns gibt es eine klare Empfehlung sowohl an Oldschool Doom Fans als auch Neueinsteiger in die Serie. Gerade die vielen Schwierigkeitsgrade und Oldschool-Mechaniken, werden einige Shooter Fans an ihre Grenzen bringen.

The level of customization for your multiplayer character is massive and on completion of a match you can get some nice rewards, these can include: new gear sets, colors and weapons.
Putting aside the bad multiplayer mode and experience, DOOM was fun at best! It was fast-paced, and it was satisfying – that glory kill move on Baron of Hell was awesome. Graphics surely caught my attention. The world of Hell and Mars in DOOM is one place that every hardcore first-person shooter lovers would get into all over and over again. It was surely, again, enjoyable, and it didn't disappoint me at all.
Instead of naming this current installment Doom 4, id Software decided to rebrand. The all caps'ed DOOM makes sense to me; this game is very much so the original rebuilt with modern technology. We were once given a glimpse of Hell on Mars through a view of 8-bit, now the pain and all its glory shines at 60fps. Changes have been made: the story has been spiced up, Glory kills now fly in your face, the double-jump now creates a ton more platforming, and upgrades of all kinds are everywhere! These changes put DOOM at odds with any current first person shooter out there.
With an incredible level of visual quality, responsive controls and a kick ass lineup of monsters, it's not to have fun. Everything has been executed in a way that brings the original game back to life for a new generation. This reboot could not have been executed any better. The game succeeded in being everything that it should have and was done with such a high level of polish that it was a huge pleasure to play.
The new DOOM is a great example of how a modern game based on concepts from 23 years ago can work. Despite the fact that the game doesn't bring anything new, it is a grand entertainment, which is only let down by the unremarkable multiplayer.
