Still creepy, still fun eight years later. Not quite enough new content to win back old fans, but first-timers will delight. [Jan 2013, p.74]

Doom 3 BFG Edition isn't the complete, ultimate Doom collection I was hoping for but it's still a lot of great content in one place and for a good price. Even if I prefer the original games modded to fan perfection, BFG Edition is a great entry point for novices, or a good way for lapsed fans to rediscover the blood, carnage and white knuckle terror of Doom.

Doom 3 is the definition of "unfair gameplay". Everything you do, every path you take and even when you're still standing, the game puts you in the worst possible scenario of fighting. Are you collecting a health pack? Enemies spawns behind you and hits your back. Walking a straight corridor?Hellknight waits you at the end sponging your long distance weapons, suddenly the walls opens and short range quick demons are right at your throat. Hovever the whole graphics compartment is still a pleasure to the eye (except for the human models that looks all clones of the same). Boss fights could have been more intuitive.

They definitely have some things that I’m surprised was published in a final product back when it was released still in the game that even a patch could have easily fixed but all and all this is one of the best shooters and probably the best shooter on switch. It runs unbelievably smooth and looks phenomenal even on switch lite. I really couldn’t believe it. its definitely worth a pick up if you miss or cant play original dead space or miss old school shooters in general. It feels like they took a lot of inspiration from halo combat evolved in the intro. If you liked the first doom remake but not the second this is definitely worth a pick up especially for $10

I thought it was a good time. Doom 3 was the first horror game I ever played, and was the first game I had to actually creep me out. I'm glad that Doom 1 and 2 were here, this was my first chance to play the first one. I do wish the Wolfenstien level was still intact, it was heavily modified and basicly just the wall textures are the only thing left. But overall I thought it was an alright port.

Doom 3: BFG Edition is, without a doubt, the definitive collection for fans of this series. The package brings together virtually every Doom offering that has ever existed, with additions like the "duct tape" mod and The Lost Missions amounting to delicious gravy.

For the long-awaited sequel to the ground breaking Doom, Id went in a different direction and created a hugely atmospheric survival horror/FPS hybrid which disappointed those who wanted more trigger-happy blasting action. But objectively Doom 3 is a brilliantly designed and great looking game that often genuinely makes you jump thanks to the ingenious inclusion of the fact that you cannot carry a torch and a gun at the same time; when you explore the darkened corridors you are either going in blind or completely unarmed making for hugely tense affair. The BFG edition adds HD graphics, the expansion pack missions and the original Doom & Doom 2 which makes the perfect Doom collection.

WTF is wrong with you people giving this low scores? Doom, Doom2, Doom3 and RoE all in one this is a sure ten. The two original Doom games are some of the finest games ever made! And Doom3 does not deserve all the hate some people give it. Doom bfg edition is awesome buy it!!!

You get a straight port of Doom and Doom II, a nicely polished up HD version of Doom 3, and a chance to send a whole lot of monsters to hell. It's Doom. Marine, grab the biggest freakin' gun you can find and follow me.

Doom 3: BFG Edition is still an enjoyable romp through armies of hellspawn, and if you've yet to play the Doom series, there's a lot to like here. Just be prepared for plenty of repetitive strafing and hours of fragging ugly demon ass. This is quite clearly the devil's work.

Eight years have passed since the original Doom 3 debuted in the world of high-end PC gaming. Meanwhile, FPS have evolved so much that this glorious title shows all the time that has passed.

Doom 3 BFG Edition is an expensive game that won't easily find buyers. Admittedly, the pack proposes a lot of stuff such as Doom 3, Resurrection of Evil, The Lost Mission, Doom et Doom II. However, the "enhanced" part is not as good as it should be. The original game and its expansions did get really old despite their new support for 3D and the introduction of a checkpoint save system that won't revolutionize the gameplay.

Doom 3: BFG edition is the quintessential game collection for any doom fan, it includes Doom, Doom II, Doom 3, the Resurrection of Evil expansion, and eight brand new levels packaged in the form of "the lost mission" expansion. Doom 3 and its expansions have been polished to a shine with updated graphics and improvements to game features. Both Doom and Doom II are of course classics, each wih various additions that make it even better, truly the best console port of both games, and Both Doom and Doom II both work with the Xbox 360 arcade versions of Doom and Doom II as well. I highly recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of the doom series.

Simply one of the greatest fps of all time: scary, hard, dark as hell, long lasting, wonderful: but you little kids can surely go on playing CoD and **** games like that!

First time playing Doom 3 in any shape or form. It's a bit dated by now, but still a solid action-horror-FPS. But the game takes forever to pick up, as the first 8 hours are pretty generic missions. But Hell is fantastic, though way too short. I wish there were much less Mars corridors, and much more Hell. Wouldn't have spent $40 on this, but I got it cheap. Yeah, DOOM 1 and 2 are on this, and are 9/10 classics, but that's not what this release is about. DOOM3 is a 7/10 for 2018 standards

This is a good way to start to introduce this generation of gamers' to doom just before doom 4 comes out and is still fun to play. although outdated it is still a solid game and i must say, this makes me a bit excited for the next one. People hate this just because it's graphics are **** and you don't really aim, but they miss the point of enjoyment and the fact it was made more than 10 years ago
SummaryRe-mastered for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, this game and its expansion pack offers enhanced graphics, immersing the player in the demonic world of this terrifying horror game. Players experience a never-before-seen single-player story, 'The Lost Mission,' featuring seven new levels.
