If you only play two assassin games this year, make this one of them. I’d be very surprised if this doesn’t make Game of the Year for most...

If you’re a Doom-a-holic, you’ll already own the previous games and expansions but will likely be keen on this in order to blast through and gain achievements/trophies...

What began as a popular mod has now finally become its own formidable standalone shooter, one that’s looking to nurture the very same community that made it possible to release the first version of this great shooter all those years ago...

Combine the linear environments, combat mechanics and cut-scenes and it feels more like watching an animated show or even reading a book about it all...

I also question how rewarding, in a game sense, it actually is. While playing some of the songs would be fun for some time, I don’t feel there is enough in it that would keep me wanting to progress.
