Doom

I was supposed to be studying this weekend but Doom came out. For anyone who did the crappy multiplayer beta or who haven't played this game, you should play it. Seriously the best game I've played in 10 years :P

Goodbye, productivity!

    I can't wait to play it. I've played since the original shareware version! I'll probably have to wait a while until "real life" slows down, so no spoilers!!!!!!¡��

    I avoid games when I'm studying, Looking forward to playing "The Division" after I pass my GHIC, and I still haven't completed Fallout 4.

    I'm a Warhammer 40k fan at heart, ever so often I need to waste some time in brutal online carnage (or on the tabletop lol)

    I still play Counter Strike on occasion, but I stink at it, either my reactions are getting slower in my old age, or everyone else is cheating.

    One of the awesome things about the new Doom besides Glory Kills and the amazingly fast gameplay: The soundtrack is AWESOME.

    Examples:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSHXlp53rmk
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaO8YUAmCdk

    So metal.

    The gameplay is also amazingly smooth compared to that failed abortion that Doom 3 was :P

    Man I remember playing doom on my friend's PC with Windows 3.1 installed. That game was so scary to me back then and still looks scary now.

    Well, I'm still skeptical. Is it any better than the original one that I still play up to these days? So far everything that Bethesda touched turned into crap.

    It is a lovely version of doom 2 ramped up with tons of Easter eggs referencing ID and Bethesda games.

    Watch this and decide if you like it.

    I might pick it up, I was disappointed in Doom 3 but the reviews so far seem mostly positive. Probably going to pick it up for console, got a new larger television and want to see it on the big screen.

    Aww heck forgot about Overwatch, played the heck out of the beta gotta purchase that also in a couple of weeks.

    I'd spend so many hours every day, i'd forget eating back in my gaming days. I'm a big fan of PC gaming and multiplayer FPS games.

    After the games started being ported over to the consoles i lost all appetite. There was something about using a keyboard was more natural to me than using a controller. I couldn't even move straight with the controller, let alone aim. Played the original Doom and every version of it after that. The good old days lol.

    When I got my new Gateway 486DX2 66 with 8MB RAM, with Win 3.11, the first thing I installed was Doom.

    Just picked up Doom. After reading the reviews and watching some YouTube videos, this seems like a fun single player game... Curious about multiplayer, but so far, reviews don't seem that good, would need to try it myself first.

    My PC is not all that fast (outdated):

    i5 3570K (Stock)
    EVGA GTX 770 2GB (Stock)
    32GB of RAM
    240GB SSD
