But those complaints have run their course. Which is a shame, because the extra levels added to Doom II on XBLA weren't half-bad.Īlso, 600/600 achievement points. The big draw of BFG is the new 'Lost Mission' campaign. Again, it's unchanged for better or worse (minus the things said above). The expansion, Resurrection of Evil, released around the same time as the Xbox port of Doom 3, is also included, and I really don't have anything to talk about there (the ending still sucks). Doom 3 was build to be more of a single-player experience when it was released, and that seems to hold true in this package as well. An incredibly basic multiplayer component is also included, with a few maps and even fewer modes. The co-op mode from the original Xbox release is also absent, much to fans disappointment, but it wasn't included with vanilla Doom 3 either, so I won't complain. There was originally going to be a way to use the original flashlight instead of the armor-mounted one, but I don't see that in the game.

It recharges almost instantly, and it's too bright. Other Doom games, like Final Doom or Doom II Master Levels are not present in this version. They are just launched from within BFG itself. Doom 1 and 2 ARE included as well in the package, but they are identical to their XBLA counterparts. I'm mostly going to be talking about Doom 3 here. It's got new textures, new levels, and calls itself the 'definitive collection' (actual box quote) of this legendary series. Now, it's been ported AGAIN as Doom 3: BFG Edition.

It was ported to the Xbox within a year, and, despite it not looking as nice as the PC counterpart, was a marvel for its time and a true benchmark for PC to console ports.

But it was also criticized for having gameplay that couldn't make up its mind if it wanted to be 'survival horror' or 'classic Doom,' and it was just. The game was praised for its atmosphere, graphics (lighting in particular) and return of many of the Doom standards, like weapons and enemies. Doom 3, originally released back in 2004, had a mixed reception from fans and critics alike.
