Doom 3 (Limited Collector's Edition) (Xbox, 2005)

As strict fps player I would give Doom III 8.5 out of 10 stars. It is a nicely done modern adaptation of the original game released by id in the early 90's via shareware. For originality I would give this game an A rating. Use of light, or no light, makes for a spooky effect that ads to intense game play when playing alone at night. I know Doom III three is not the only game to use this effect but I believe it was the first release on the xbox platform to utilize it. I was startled on more than one occasion. However AI leaves something to be desired and patterns quickly become evident. If there is an item in which you need such as a medkit, armor shard or clip, you can be sure there will be a creature from hell to fight first. Story line is so, so. If you are a SciFi fan then it may appeal to you. I found the whole Mars thing to be a little boorish. If you like scifi fps and monsters from hell then this is your game. It is no Halo but I would say it is worth the purchase. Play through it or two or three times then sell it on Ebay.

Great title on a great platform. This game is an absolute must have thriller for any late night gamer. Sit back and enjoy as you journey your way through the U.A.C mars research facility with endless terror and demonic surprises around every corner. This game is a personal favorite for one reason, ITS GREAT! I decided to buy this game because i owned it a few years ago and sold it, I regretted it ever since. If you are a first person shooter gamer and you like to add the flavor of fear and adrenaline rush, this is a game to keep you busy. On an even better note, you will want to go through it more than once because it just doesn't get old. You will constantly find new things to look for and maybe discover a few secrets. Buy this game and play it through a few times, with a light on of course ;)

This game came out for the original Xbox and now that it's compatible with Xbox 360, you should buy it. If you're a fan of First Person Shooters, this is a great game to own but make sure you get the "Limited Collector's Edition" as it also contains 2 full versions of the classic games, Doom 2 and Ultimate Doom as bonus features on the disk. Doom 3 is a great game. While the story line isn't that great, the creepy-ness factor certainly is. Play this alone....in the dark...and expect to jump out of your seat a few times. Monsters come out of the shadows in the darkened Mars Research Facility you're exploring when you least expect it and the contrast between light and dark in the game is very strong, expect to use your flashlight....often. But that just adds to the vibe of the game as does the ambient noise in the game. Take my word for it, this is a scary game. And after having played Xbox 360 games for about 2 1/2 years now, I can honestly say that the graphics of this Xbox game aren't that far off. They hold up pretty well when compared to other games like Condemned or Bioshock.
Doom 3 has the perfect mix of FPS and puzzle-solving. You'll need to find keys to open doors, access computers and find hidden corridors...but it's not tedious enough to make you give up and play something else. The puzzles are challenging but they don't take away from the game and as you venture further into the depths of Hell, it just gets better....and scarier.

Give this a try. You can find it for about $15 and it's definitely worth playing. Especially if you're a gamer on a budget during this tough economic times.

Doom 3 is definitely one of the best original Xbox titles I have ever had the pleasure of destroying. Visually this game rivals many 360 titles I have played (SD of course) and the storyline is present, (along with the creep factor. quite dark and scary) but does not overpower the gameplay. Gameplay, I might add, is quite engaging, and the difficulty settings make it everyone's game. Factor in the Collector's Edition's bonus features, and the playable ULTIMATE DOOM, and DOOM 2: SHORES OF HELL that you find under the extras section, and you have the complete Doom experience on one disc. I own a 360 and a variety of current titles, but still come back to this one frequently. Highly recommended.

This game was & still is, one of my all-time favorite FPS ever!!!!!!!! It's great in sooooo-many way's, and for an 2004 game, it was way a-head of it's time, like that of the original 'half-life' when it came out way back when!!!!!!!!! If I have this right, I'm almost sure that ID-software is now & has been for years, developing, not only their current game i.e 'Rage' but also 'Doom-4', but it like D-III is really taking a very-lonnnnnnnnnng time to cook! But as we all know, that can and or will be a good thing!!!!!!!!!!

Not only in my few, but alot of gamers still say this game/fps can still stand-up/next to alot of current fps today, in so many way's!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come-on, just log-on/get on eBay and bid/buy this game right-now, and it's expansion for that matter! I'd have say without any hesitation what-so-ever, you (will-not) be disappointed/regret it!!!!!!!! Trust me on this!!!!! Will ok, I hope you'll really-enjoy Doom-III that is, big-time!!!!!!!

God-bless, & happy-gaming all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
