Hell is near

Doom 3 is a retelling of the original Doom, but using a completely new engine with true 3D and advanced physics. Doom 3 is not as 'run and gun' as it's predecessors, but focuses on atmosphere and graphics. It was critisied mainly for cliche horrors and no way to display the physics engine.I


Story

The protagonist is once again a nameless space marine. As it so just happens you get shipped to the UAC(Union Areospace Corporation) Mars resaerch facility with Counselor Swann and His bodyguard Campbell the sameday hell breaks loose.
