Can't wait! I asked for doom 2016 6 months ago, my dad said wait till your 14, today is my birthday, and this has come out!
This game is the best $5 I have spent on the system. I had not played it since I was a kid and the game made in 1993 still is more fun then many modern fps games.
I love Doom. I think it is one of the best FPS shooters of the century. The gameplay combined with the music makes it a great game. Just like bread and butter.
