DOOM 3

Na ja, DooM 3 halt. Muss man da noch was zu sagen!?

I originally had this back when it was a case of two discs and I had to get the Resurrection of Evil expansion separately. I see various differences, the most noticeable of which is that you have a shoulder flashlight, rather than one that's handheld. I have to say, having played both versions, switching between the flashlight and weapons adds a certain thrill you don't find in many games. Still, the shoulder one is awfully convenient. The Steam version of Doom 3, I think, has the vanilla game and expansion, as well as the modern BFG Edition, which includes the Lost Missions. This game is not like the original Doom games back in the Windows 3.1 days, which was more horror action. Nor is it like any of the newer ones. Doom 3 is more sci-fi survival horror, with lots of dark areas and cramped spaces. None of this is a bad thing, as I thoroughly enjoy every Doom game I've played so far. The plot centers around the Union Aerospace Corporation and their teleportation experiments that result in the discovery of "hell," as most people imagine it, and its invasion of the Mars facility. There's a good amount of reading and dialogue that can be heard through conversations, PDAs, emails and video disks. Some of these lead the player to learning codes to unlock areas or supply cabinets scattered around the game. Eventually, players discover some pretty nifty details about the invasion, and a lost civilization they discovered on Mars. I would say this game is definitely scary. I mean, you will always have those insecure people who are like, "nO wAy, dOoM 3 WaSn'T sCaRy!" Yes, we all know what a big brave boy you are. Because the only reason you'd interject like that is so everyone can be well informed of this extremely important detail about you. Maybe someday, your favorite female Twitch streamer with the cat ear headphones will let you smell her used yoga tights. I assure you that the above is not a real-life conversation I had years ago. Seriously, though, there are a lot of foreboding environments and creepy, suspenseful encounters. There are also numerous jumpscares. I know there are some people who think jumpscares are cheap. So, if that's a deal-breaker for you, now you know. When I first played this game as a youth, it got my heart pumping and I felt the anxious thrill of maybe getting my face ripped off in the next room. Especially with having to switch between weapons and the flashlight, as I mentioned above. Decades later, though, the game may not "scare" me like it did, but it's still thrilling when I come back to it after a hot minute. Anyone who was a fan of the original Doom games should play this. If you're new to the Doom franchise, rest assured that this is a very fun game, even if it's the most unique of its siblings.

Still holds up. Its a different kind of DooM but its a really great immersive horror/action game

DOOM 3 EXCELLENT EDITION

Tuvo la mala suerte de haber salido el mismo año que Half Life 2, y no sentirse como un Doom. Un Doom se siente como pegar tiros frenéticos sin preocuparse por la linterna. Por esto relanzaron el juego en esta edición, haciendo que Marine Espacial que no es el Doom Slayer, apunte su linterna al mismo tiempo que dispare. Pero seguía sin sentirse Doom. El juego se pone superchulo después de conseguir un cubo mágico que licúa a los enemigos para restaurar vida. Entonces avanzas un par de niveles más y el juego se termina.

people hate on this game, but i think it is great!!
