Picked it up yesterday, even after my previous comments as 'circastes' where I sort of didn't think it had much hope - based entirely on third party opinion.
Anyway, this game is amazing.
Like people said maybe not worth $60. I got it for $38 AU dollars yesterday, down from $80.
Good luck have fun!
If you've got a high-end graphics card + 2K monitor, you're even better off.
They better do a new Wolfenstein on this engine.

Just got to Hell and it's a really cool game. That characteristic id Software quality type of engine and flow of the game.
Very cool. I hope Quake Champions is just as well designed.

Never tried it, thinkinf after playing DooM 3 that the series didn't translate well to this generation of games. I haven't watched any gameplay or red review but I might pick it up after reading what you all have to say.

Yeah Doom3 was a bit of a stuff up. I liked it but it wasn't "Doom", it was some survival horror attempt. New Doom 2016 is definitely with the times. Really well put together technically as all id games are.

New Doom is fucking amazing. Finally picked it up and am thoroughly impressed. Super high quality and well polished, amazing modern graphics.. but still they somehow managed to retain that classic DOOM feel. Plus you can find secrets that unlock classic doom levels you can play.. Game is fucking great. They def hit the mark with this one. I actually wasn't expecting it to be so good. My expectations were low and I was pleasantly surprised.

How many of u guys played doom 1 and 2??
I remember back in 1996 my friend gave me doom 1 for Super Nintendo , heaps of fun. But I could never understand what happened in the end of first world where u jump into floor teleport and appear in a dark space full of demons. There so many of them in there no matter what u do they eat u. The only thing u could use to beat them is BFG but there no BFG in first world.
And in 1997 I played doom 2 on a school computer, I was the first one to finish last level and win the game

There's a special flag programmed in that room to tell the game to beat the level when you die and does -20% to your health per second. Dying there means you beat it. SNES one was my first port too...funny to think how freaked out I was by the cyberdemon back then!
Having fun with Brutal Doom, new one looks great.

Doom 1 & 2 were amazing (at the time). No game like that at the time. Doom 2016 lived up to the legacy of just a sweet visual, flowing action game with atmosphere.
Okay I'll stop praising it now.

It seriously does though. It has all the classic DOOM feel but has brilliant graphics, music... the atmosphere pulls you in.. everything is just so smooth flowing and well done
