Sounds great to me - Loved Doom 1&2. Tried to play the third but my PC wasn't up to it, so it was somewhat akin to having a seizure.

Sounds like a great package

DOOM 3 BFG Edition is the ultimate collection of groundbreaking games that defined the first person shooter. It includes DOOM, DOOM 2, DOOM 3, and DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil, as well as the ‘Lost Mission.’ All DOOM 3 content has been re-mastered for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in stunning 3D for an even more terrifying FPS experience.

Hopefully they have beefed it up a bit, because as great a game as it was, it will look criminally outdated if not!

doom 3 was a bit pants.

[Jonesey]

Oh I dunno, though - the Xbox versions of Doom3 and RoE are 360 compatible and they still look pretty good and play rather well.

Will Final Doom be included as well?

but can you use the gun and the torch at the same time?

[mad_dude]

Yes, this game will also be " head mounted display" compatable

Doom 3 was a major, major disappointment after the joys of Doom and Doom II. They thought that shrouding everything in darkness was the way to go. It wasn't.

I would much rather they did decent Doom/Doom II games for the store, along with a selection of the best user-created levels.

Picked this up at the weekend. You get a lot of content for £25. It has been great playing through Doom 1&2 again.

Doom 3 is a love it or hate it kind of game it seems. I presonally love it, full of tension and atmosphere. Still plays really well IMO. No ADS feels odd, I keep clicking L1 and rapidly turning on my torch whilst a demon or zombie closes in!

All the games seem to have online modes too. I haven't dipped in yet but it should be a laugh.

Oh whoopee doo more antique games.. Been gaming since pong and I can't stand "retro" games they just look awful.!

I jumped a couple of times and I never jump at things:

In my defence I only just make the age rating

heh - Not an excuse I can use

The sound design in the game is brilliant - creates a great atmosphere. And popping caps into the slow, lumbering zombies is great fun...

I played this on the PC in about 2007 and only played half of it - mainly because my PC at the time found it a struggle to run it, but I thought it was brilliant.

I have a copy here now, but need to finish The Walking Dead first.

It is an amazing game, and for £25 you also get it's expansion, the lost missions, and the original Doom and Doom 2.

I played through doom 3 when it 1st came out & loved it.

I got to play the new version a couple days back & felt the changes they made kinda ruined the atmosphere of the game & made it a lot easier.


They give you plenty of ammo this time round, One of the things I liked about it 1st time round was having to be careful with your ammo. Not been able to go round spraying rounds everywhere added to the tension, Running around with only a few rounds left knowing something could pop up round the next corner kept you on your toes.

Been able to use the flashlight & a gun at the same time also takes away some of the tension, Having to run around with the flashlight, suddenly running into something & having to quickly switch to a weapon & losing the thing you were shooting at in the shadows made the game more challenging & kept you on edge.

Enjoying this one, I only ever played Doom 3 on Xbox and enjoyed it, this update improves upon it in pretty much ever area imo.

I prefer having more ammo, more enemies and the half-life style flashlight as it makes the game faster paced which I think a Doom game should be, it's not like any of the atmosphere is really lost. The 60fps update is also a huge benefit, one thing I am disappointed by is the lack of real time shadows cast by the torch, wasn't this a feature of the original game on PC? That would be my real only gripe.

I've always wondered whenever I played Doom 3 how cool it would of been to see an Alien Resurrection (PS1) update using this engine.
