While its multiplayer may be a bit on the generic side, Doom's campaign is some of the most enjoyable shooter gameplay I've experienced in years. Its all about fast movement, constant explosions and demonic dismemberment, hordes upon hordes of enemies that come at you from all directions, and most importantly of all, the rockin' soundtrack!
If you haven't already given Doom a try, but you have even a tiny bit of interest in FPS games, you're in luck as the free weekend has now begun! By heading over to Steam you can experience literally everything Doom has to offer for the next two days, after which you will need to actually purchase it in order to continue from where you left off.
In order to make that transitional period a bit less painful Doom will be on a 50% discount until July 27th. In other words, you have enough time to give Doom a proper shake, take a bit of time to really think things over, and then grab it at a 50% discount if you're so inclined. For those of you that are still on the fence and don't know if Doom is even worth the time and effort to download, may I suggest checking out one of the gameplay trailers? Its not overly long, but it will give you a pretty damn good idea why Doom is constantly getting showered with so much praise. Enjoy!
