Game Overview

DOOM 3 - id Software's terrifying battle with the forces of Hell is invading the Xbox. A massive demonic invasion has overwhelmed the UAC's Mars research facility leaving only chaos and horror in its wake. As one of only a few survivors, you struggle with shock and fear as you fight your way to Hell and back in an epic clash against pure evil.

The Bottom Line

The third major DOOM release is being met with a feverish level of anticipation from both gamers and the gaming media. DOOM 3 which is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2004 for Xbox and PC will take gamers on a trip through the terrifying depths of Hell with a level of visual realism never before seen in the series. Distinguishing its self from previous titles, the new DOOM will focus more on an engrossing single player experience. In addition to its frenzied FPS action, it will also scare the wits out of players as they tremble down dark corridors filled with gruesome zombies and monsters ready to attack from the shadows.
