Edge Review Doom 3.

edited August 2004 in Gaming
Edge the only mag in my humble opinion to not fall into the hypometer of PR.

Has given an excellent review of doom 3. I don't have my copy at the moment but i'll paste some excerts from it.

"The reliance on contrived event scripting in a game whose manual encourages you to depend on quicksaving can rapidly undermine your queasy nervousness. Repeating sections round for round and move for move untill perfected makes a mockery of the carefully constructed suspense"

"It's impossible for your heart not to race as you sweat out the fright of its peerless audio design, chattering voices and muffled sobs endlessly scraping your senses. It's this that makes irrelevent the debates of how Doom is Doom. Terror is the surest badge of Doom 3's heritage: this is a tense, ultraviolent action game which demands you revisit the way we played the original game: off with the lights, on with the headphones, and up with the volume.

7/10
