Speaking of those classics titles, they’re also included in the BFG Edition and, while they haven’t received any care in terms of visuals, they still hold up in delivering a fun and simple shooter experience filled with old-school features like secret areas and Easter Eggs.Īs an added bonus, in the BFG Edition of Doom 3, id also included support for 3D, which should make the whole action horror experience that much more realistic. The Lost Mission levels are a bit more streamlined and remind loyal fans of the more frantic running and gunning from the first two Doom titles, so you should certainly give them a try. The level design is the same, managing to accentuate the horror experiences, even if quite a few new checkpoints have been added to help those who don’t remember to quick save. While it may still be criticized for its reliance on the so-called monster closets, which pump up enemies at random, Doom 3 at least gets the whole atmosphere right and, when you combine its monsters with its tight and twisted level design, you’re going to get scared a lot.Įnemies are still the same, ranging from possessed maintenance workers to marines or full-fledged demons and your arsenal remains unchanged, going from the pistol to the shotgun or sub-machine gun and culminating with the iconic BFG-9000. Speaking of horror, the game still holds up, offering the quintessential “gotcha” experience, as it’s filled with all sorts of surprises. In the original game, you could either hold the flashlight or the weapon, making your journey through the demon-filled corridors of the space station that much more terrifying. The main new feature is the fact that id decided to automatically include the famous Duct Tape mod in the game, as players can now turn on their flashlights while still holding their guns. First and foremost, at least on consoles, are the improved visuals and mechanics, but on the PC you won’t really notice most of them.
