I loved the reboot of Doom. This was a marvelous game that I think did the series some true justice. It was frantic, it was scary, it was gory. It was a thrill to run around, it wasn't a chore to find the secrets or collectables. The game had a nice balance between going all out into the melee and risking your progress, to the conservative approach of gunning demons down. The glory kill system is a really neat one that is rewarding and challenging.
I had the itch for some Diablo II, but instead went with Torchlight II, which I had progressed in a little. Instead, I started a new character, flew through the entire game, and had a blast with it. I really love the soundtrack by Matt Uelman, and the gameplay is truly solid. Nice little hack-and-slash adventure to end the week.
