Bombjack10/10

A great return from a venerable franchise. Great game of running, shooting, and maybe running away.

Look, I remember 1993. I remember the pixelated chaos that felt like a fever dream in a dark basement. For years, shooters tried to be "smart" or "tactical," losing their soul in the process. Then Doom (2016) showed up, kicked the door off the hinges, and reminded us that we don't need a reload button to have a good time. It is a massive return to form. This isn't a game about hiding behind waist-high walls. It is a game about forward momentum. You run, you gun, and you perform glory kills that feel like a jagged shot of adrenaline straight to the heart. The loop is simple: see a demon, turn it into red mist, and keep moving before your brain has time to realize how ridiculous it all is. The graphics are sharp, though the sound is mostly there to keep the blood pumping rather than win any awards for subtlety. It is challenging, but it never crosses the line into being unfair. It respects your time by giving you exactly what you want: pure, unadulterated carnage. If you miss the days when games were about the dance of death instead of navigating menu trees, this is your sanctuary. THE VERDICT Visual Design 9/10 Hell has never looked this crisp or beautifully oppressive. Sound Design 8/10 Functional and heavy, though it leans on the music to do the heavy lifting. Gameplay 10/10 The most satisfying movement and combat loop in a decade. Longevity 9/10 I finished the 12-hour campaign and immediately wanted to go again. Fun Factor 10/10 Pure, cathartic joy. It makes you feel like a god. OVERALL 10/10
