So they complain about it not being revolutionary for the doom series, yet cods been stuck with the exact same gameplay for 10 years and that doesn't effect its score.

The game is fun, it's just a badass kill everything type of game. It's okay to have games like that. I couldn't give it less then a 8.

The game is a 9/10. Graphically, Gameplay, Multiplayer, Snapmaps. It has more content than 90% of games released today. Its a whole, complete game. Something of a rarity in the modern age of gaming.
You can tell the reviewer was born after 1990, he doesn't appreciate the classic style of shooters.

Anyone who actually DOES like the game, Join me online in my ps4 community Cyberdemon Club. 20 members so far, multiple snapmaps published, an engaging leader, anyone is welcome. Search in communities or message BuckyBarnes for an invite.

IGN gives Evolve a 9 which is a piece of cr&^p game and this gets a 7.1?! I have this game and I can say it is fan bloody tastic both single player and multiplayer.

I think its a fair score.

IGN have stooped to the level of clickbait now, perhaps maybe before. Who pays their salaries? The advertising does

DOOM 2016 campaign score for me is 10 out of 10 . Playing the campaign is pure bliss!

I can tell this review was rushed. Did not even mention the DOOM 1 and 2 classic maps which are very fun to play!!!

I actually love it, not bothered about MP, but the campaign is a blast, he goes on about just running & gunning for 8 hours, it's DOOM, what do you expect mate...looks & runs great on ultra settings on PC too...

The game is pretty solid. Only thing that bugged me was the incredibly weak ending which i know is clearing setting up for a sequel but still i would have like some sense of closure for this installment. But other than that it is a blast and would recommend to anyone looking for a fast shooter that mixes the old with the new. 8.5/10 imo

Once there was a time IGN had some value in their reviews. They have long sense lost there way.

Lol hey where's the review in progress.....or did I miss it.

I guess bethesda should of paid for ads on their website

Don't be surprised if Homefront the Revolution ends up being the better game.

Easy way to turn this game into a 9 or 10 for reviewer
Change the letter I.D for N.D and you would have a 9 or 10

- the graphics would have been praised as the best for FPS and a accomplishment.
- The multiplayer would have been praised for the the new mode (Soul Harvest) the health pack would also get praise because you can't just wait to fight back if your damage so it create new element of tension.
- Like UC4 the rune would become a positive (see Uc4 review) "A sense of chaos is further encouraged by the outrageous...
summon a sarcophagus that attacks the enemy with flying evil spirits can totally interrupt the rhythms of what would otherwise be a normal firefight"

But Alas the game is made by I.D not ND.

I'll buy it when is cheap

Screw it,.. I saw some vids from giantbomb and that before you buy vid,.. and just went out and bought it,.. now it is downloading patch,.. Cannot wait

Don't care for reviews....been playing this nonstop. The game is fantastic SP and MP!!

should have gave it a 7.3459832 insead

9.5/10 from me.. Best FPS since Wolfenstein: The New Order and Metro Redux.

What surprises more than this score is just how much attention IGN reviews get from gamers. Just my opinion but I think there are sites that do a much better job when it comes to reviews.

Wow, that sucks.. I guess ill just get a used copy one day. Gonna cancel the collectors edition if i keep seeing reviews under 8-8.5

7/10 is a good score. N4G users seems to forget that there's more to a numerical score system than 8 - 10.
This game is not great, like you think it is.

7.1for simpy being DOOM. Those websites are a joke!

I give this review a perfect 3.14 / 10.999999845.

I disagree with this score. If I were to review Doom I would give it a solid 9.

I don't understand why every game that comes out now has to push the "boundries" of the genre. Why can't it just be fun and satisfying? 7.1 seems wildly unreasonable when the vast majority of people who have played it enjoy the game.

That score.

Doom is a freaking 10! It took me around 15 hours to go through it on Ultra Nightmare. Game was so, damned, good. First FPS I've bought in a long time. No regrets!

It's clear they tried to rate the game for what it isn't instead of for what it is and always wanted to be. A development of classic Doom run and gun gameplay which is exactly what it delivers.

Have they lost their freaking minds!!! Easy, 8.5 or 9.0

Do not spend $ 60 for this game....

I'm enjoying this room a lot but I must say I miss the story in the way Doom 3 was set up in comparison. I would love to see Doom 3 remastered with this engine

Why does anyone follow what IGN has to say these days? The company is a joke nowadays.

Coming from a site that gives CoD a standard 9+ score,i'm not even going to watch or read the review.
IGN is FOS.

Doom is a decent game, but it's not as good as Call of Duty: Ghost- IGN.

Call of Duty Ghost: 8.8
Doom: 7.1

LMAO!!!

i dont understand why this doesnt have co-op campaign, since most of the time you just kill demons.

Because IGN are wh*res of the industry who railraod thinking with their "sponsored" reviews. They didn't get paid enough to give it a better score. Why does any respectable player listen to IGN as if they are the complete authority on quality games? I cringe from the blatant lies about gaming (especially those graphics comparisons) and cannot stand the site, gamespot too. They have and always will be an ADVERTISING platform like most critic sites.

I miss the days of game demos so we could see for ourselves. Why are we not uniting to demand this?

completely fair review. repetitive single player campaign and mediocre dumbed down multiplayer. 7.1 might even be a bit high

Still enjoyed DOOM3, Haven't played this yet. Still playing through Uncharted 4 and Dark souls 3.

Tough game to review with its tacked-on multiplayer and mix of old and new design. I, for one, am having a blast with the campaign after a slow start. A total blasty blast.

That's what happens when publishers don't pay for reviews.... http://www.p4rgaming.com/ex...

Doom is great fun. I've been very pleased with the general quality of games releasing this year.

Easily a 9 for me. Not to mention 0 bugs and day 1 patches.
7.1.. Nope...but it's IGN. Nuff said.

fair score, the multiplayer is trash and the story is very very bad. bu bu bu but doom is about gameplay! no either games are about gameplay first and story second or story first and gameplay second you cant have it both ways

It felt too bland and looked even blander in game. Thus the bland review score. I don't think a game deserves a 9 just because you had fun with it. I've had fun playing some 5/10 tier games but that doesn't make them a better game. You can have fun playing any game if its suited to what you like or you're playing with friends (which almost always results in fun)

Wish others had reviews like Eurogamer. No scores in the reviews

IGN stands for ignore . They have a strange way of ratimg games imo, I would prefer horrible , decent, good , great and must own or some variant and explain why it was good bad or ugly.

I'll need to pick it up soon cause I'm sure the single-player is great. That multiplayer was god-awful though.

They did nothing but praise it when it releases, then this person copies and pastes random complaints from Reddit into a review and give it a 7.1.

Just to point it out, they gave COD Ghosts a 9....

My score would be 9.1765 personally.
But seriously i like the game a lot, however, i can see why some people might not. To me this is the original doom with quake elements. The story is mediocre, there are no real puzzles. It's just run and gun and i love that.
In movie terms it reminds me of things like die hard where critics say the story is lacking. It's about the action. Nothing else.

How can anyone be surprised by this? This is IGN that we are talking about here & going by the IGN's game , movie & pc / game console accessory review history I'm surprised Doom's review score was over a 4.5.

Fuck IGN. Those nuts gave COD Ghosts an 8.8

And They gave CoD black ops III a 9.2...... let that sink in...

game is a solid 9 just because of snapmap editor and sp! campain was a blast and snap map offers lots of extra content now and in the future. You dont like the mp? Modify mp in snap map and play however you want (crank up speed, damage or remove loadouts. Hell throw in some friendly demons.)!
This game is a better pakage than any cod of the last years!
Multiplayer is very solid as it is.

I'll probably get this on sale. I have so many other games I still need to finish, and for my shooter needs, I have Halo 5... It looks hell of fun though.

Its getting the same review scores as Wolfenstein: The New Order / The Old Blood. It does have multiplayer. But leaps and bounds past Wolfenstein..........probably not.

To me there almost the same game with added MP.

- Linear
- Run and Gun

Not saying Doom is a bad game. But I have Wolfenstien and I'm pretty good on the linear at the moment. I just finished Rise of The Tomb Raider and I started Uncharted 4. I can see where guys would be into it. Especailly if they skipped Wolfenstein. Doom 64 is still my all time favorite Doom though. 32 levels of he*l. It was great.

This is actually what the FPS genre has needed for a long while, BOOM life has been pushed right back into the ol' horse, the fast frantic action was almost too much for me at first, but then I ended up catching up to it, think TimeSplitters in a severly bad mood. This review isn't very reliable guys, the game is dope.

Hope it impresses me to keep it once I get home

I was hoping to see Bioshock on this list but this is a good one!
