    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Such an amazing reboot of a legendary franchise. The New Doom pushes the limits with id Tech's new engine. The game looks absolutely beautiful. The Game-play is very fun and addicting. The sheer brutality and gore of the game is astonishing. The level design is very well, making you jump, shoot, throw grenades, punch and kill demons all around the place. The soundtrack is very adhesive and fits very well with the environment. Overall a great reboot and a cliffhanging ending which makes you excited and pumped for the next entry in the franchise.… Expand

    I think the best way to sum it up is to say that Doom simply puts all other modern shooters to shame. In a time of micro transactions and half-assed and half-hearted games Doom is a giant f**k you to the establishment. It does all the things that other big-wig shooters try to do, but better, smarter, and without bragging about it.

This game respects the player like no other, and it's refreshing to feel like i owe the dev something instead of the other way around for once. Doom is a once in a generation game that shows how us all how shooters are done and really just makes a lot of other devs look lazy, greedy, and out of touch. Easy 10/10… Expand

    I wasn't sure before buying it. I gave it a try and I really had a lot of fun playing that game on 4k @ 60FPS with ultra gfx settings. Technology since the first Doom has so much changed that it cannot compare. Just the title and some monster design remained. Still, I was in for a big surprise. I simply didn't want stop playing until I finished it.

    This game is fantastic on every level. Score highly on every front. what stands out is gameplay, sound & music, graphics, presentation.
    The secrets are neat, like original doom secrets. The multiplayer is expansive, and snapmap is one of the best level editors for console.

    The game is damn fun. And immersive. Doom (2016) makes doom 3 look really quite poor.

I was blown away, I am a massive fan of the series and saw that this doom was everything I wanted. It is fast-paced, gore filled fun that only doom can deliver. My original guess was that it was going to pander to console players by making it slower ( I thought this after I saw the scroll wheel that slowed down game play.) It has been a long while since I have seen a shooter with intelligent map design, design which rewards players for playing the game at a faster pace, in fact I rarely found myself stopping in between combat, if at all. There is secrets galore in this game to. Not only that but the game itself is absolutely beautiful. From the large bosses to the small imps for pistol fodder every part of the game does not lack in design, This game reinvigorated my faith in ID. The online has obviously improved since the beta (Its great, i didn't get the chance to play the beta but I heard complaints) With a larger selections of weapons. In fact I see so many modding possibilities for the multiplayer on PC. After playing leagues and leagues of modern shooters this is the most refreshing multiplayer I have played in a while and will suck in hours and hours of my time I haven't really played around with snap map yet, but Ill be looking forward to it!.

    A true DOOM game. Fast paced, bad-ass scenery, bad-ass demons, powerups, secrets, badass guns, easter eggs, fan service, and more. If it wasn't your "cup of tea" then you probably aren't much of a Doom fan in the first place.

    Amazing graphics, you can even give the game a gritty film grain that takes you into a sort of grindhouse satan/hell exploitation kind of atmosphere. Music is phenomenal, good sound overall, with plenty of texture and makes killing enemies really satisfying.

    Campaign is a blast and the full package. Multiplayer is also quite a bit of fun to play, the loadouts are not my favorite setup, but they make sense - and take a lot of the weapon spawn camping aspect out of the game (which is rampant in other frag fest games like this one.)

    Doom is BACK! Plus you can play in new multiplayer or old style in snapmap. Game have hardcore gameplay like in original Doom and many secret rooms with weapons and upgrades. After every level you can see statistics and it makes challenges. I think this games upgraded old style gameplay and makes it better, so now you can really PLAY and have a fun.
