This game is total fun!(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
This game totally rocks!! I loved Doom 3 and was sorry to see it end when I finished the game. Doom 3: Ressurection of Evil Expansion Pack allowed me to continue playing. It doesn't have as many levels since, of course, it is an expansion pack, but it is still a lot of fun. The price is perfect for the amount of levels that you get to play. You do need to have Doom 3 installed in order to play it. It ran fine with out problems and the graphics were great! I would recommend this game to anyone who likes the Doom series. |

Fun Game(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
This is a fun game, not a lot of difference from Doom III, though. While I was playing it, I felt like I had played most of it before.

Not Worth $(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
If you are thinking of buying this game:
1. Play Doom 3 again.
0r
2. Buy F.E.A.R.
It is almost exactly the same as Doom 3. |

Makes improvements, but still too dark and repetitive.(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
The original Doom 3 was quite a showcase for the new engine - however, many were concerned that this was all it was - a showcase of what could be done with little attention given to the gameplay. As such, the expert level design of the original games seemed thown out in favor of a "get from A to B while monsters jump out at you" approach.
This new add-on changes little of this. The environments are still mostly the same level over and over. There isn't the emphasis on unique level design, secret rooms, and ancient demon temples that made the originals so fun. But, they have toned down the difficulty quite a bit - and they have given you two new weapons to alter the gameplay a little.
Both new weapons are fun, they bear strong resemblance to two recent PC hits - Half-Life 2 and F.E.A.R (though I cannot say for certain which developer came up with the idea first). The Half-Life contribution is a variation of the gravity-gun. But rather than being used to pick up objects to be used as weapons (which you can do a little of, but not very effectively) here it is used to catch the plasma balls shot at you by the various demons and shoot the balls back at them. This is a fun new element.
The F.E.A.R. contribution comes in the form of a disembodied ancient heart (the same from the end of the original Doom 3) that now allows you to momentarily slow down time. This way you can rush into a room and take out all the bad guys before they even get one shot off. This also adds a new element of strategy in that you can only hold three such charges at a time, and you must allow for the limited time this effect lasts.
Aside from these innovations, there is little to distinguish this from its predecessor. Like the original Doom3, this one is at its best during the brief visit to hell. I wish they had invested more time in this setting and less among the repetitive halls of the space station. Oh well, maybe there will be another add-on that will return us to the feel of the original series. |
