This game was a treat to read about, I still remember seeing the footage of designers talking about capturing the fun in the original, and they were right. The music, the rewarding non stop gameplay, the well crafted levels. I spent more time sightseeing than worrying about completing the level...
That said, I enjoyed Doom 3 because of the opposite reasons, which to me just shows how much of a Power-House ID is when they mean business.
Really a masterclass in game design from any angle you want. It was very satisfying for this wait to be over (especially when ).
