8.7/10

i know this game gets hate but tbh it’s unnecessary asf. ID did a really good job with Doom 3. the map design is actually really amazing. it wasn’t hard to navigate and was unique in its backtracking missions. the visuals were good too (i know it’s bad in the original but for remastered i fucked with it). the soundtrack could’ve been better tbh, Doom 1/2 had an amazing soundtrack and those games are old asf. the combat was surprisingly good. coming from two fast pace shooters to a slowed down version i thought i’d hate it but honestly liked it a lot. the story was interesting but it kind of felt like there was something missing the whole way through. the bosses are the weakest part of this game. they’re are actually bad. and it sucks because Doom has so many fun bosses but 3 has laughable bosses. i’m going to play the dlcs so i’m not entirely done with the game but the main campaign was awesome.

i wanted to go into this open minded but oh my god does it deserve its hate 😭. the game by itself isn’t awful but it isn’t good either. it has A LOT of flaws but there’s still some good things you can take from it. like the atmosphere and mechanics. the atmosphere feels really good and imo i like it more than DMC1. really gives you that edgy feel. the mechanics are surprisingly pretty good. when fighting it feels pretty fluid dodging and going for a swing to keep your “combo” going. they did well with that for it being unfinished. now there’s just too much flaws to talk about so the major one is THE FUCKING BOSSES. agrosax has got to be the WORST boss in the history of gaming. idk who tf thought that shit was a good idea but they need to be banned from making video games. i have never been more disappointed by a boss in my life. if you’re thinking of playing DMC2 or starting off with it first try to ha be an open mind. because there is some playability here and some enjoyability.

genuinely one of the best FPS games i’ve played. for coming out in 2006 this game was impressive. i remember when i first played it, i was about 6 and had no idea what i was doing. years later i’m 17 and decided to beat it. my favourite part about the game was the weapons. the guns feel amazing, it can be slow to aim but honestly it fit perfectly. the option to go guns blazing or assassinate everyone by just equipping or unequipping a silencer is so cool. the mechanics feel very smooth for an XBOX game. my second favourite part about the game is the environment. the level design was excellent i didn’t feel bored when i was traversing through the levels. i had a a lot of fun exploding half the environment. i think it’s super fucking cool that this game had this level of in depth design. a lot of games that have destructive environments don’t do it well or it’s mad clunky. but BLACK exceeds these expectations. my third favourite part of the game was the atmosphere. the moments where you just got done fighting for your life and picking up your loot feels so satisfying. im not sure how to explain it. i loved the missions where you’re alone. it feels so good being able to stealth around and just headshot everyone without being scene. makes me feel like i’m playing ODST. now this game isn’t perfect it has its flaws like the story isn’t that crazy, it had a cool plot twist but a boring start. the soundtrack could use some work since half the time your playing it’s nowhere to be heard. which made the world feel empty for me. but overall for a game that came out in 2006 this is awesome.
