Note: Offers both single- and multi-player modes "Now, this is going to be a little tricky. An adventure-centric review of Doom 3? CAN IT BE DONE?! Well, I'm going to attempt it -- we at Just Adventure are, after all, known for deviating from the standard - and I'll begin by stating that I actually really enjoyed it. "Doom 3 drips atmosphere from every oozing pore. The enemies are incredibly designed and animated to a tee and initially the backgrounds are really quite amazing. The acting, voiceovers and character models are very detailed and the initial half-hour truly gives you the feeling that Mars City, your starting point, is very much alive. "I got the feeling that Doom 3, strangely, would work better as an adventure broken up by action rather than an all-out action game. Its cinematic style would suit a more sedate horror title, the amount of detail put into the (very) basic story being nearly as much as your average adventure. "Yet despite my problems with its repetitive nature and basic gunplay, I found Doom 3 had a lot to offer for an adventure player willing to dip their toes into an FPS - but only through the atmosphere and detail. "If you can handle graphic imagery and action and want to see what can be done when 3D is utilized correctly, with its clever graphical tricks and impressive direction, then Doom 3 is highly recommended. Just don't expect much from the gameplay, savor the detail - and Doom 3 will take you on a nightmarish journey to Hell and back." |
