Doom: Ranking All The Games From Worst To Best
8. Doom 3: Resurrection Of Evil
As story expansions go, Resurrection of Evil is a far cry from some of the big-promise, low-payoff DLCs of today. If you can say one thing for id Software, they really know how to follow on from their main series titles.
Set two years after the events of Doom 3, we follow yet another nameless marine (seriously, somebody should at least number them at this point) as he accompanies a UAC investigation team to the abandoned Mars facility after they detect a strange signal coming from one of its satellites.
Upon the discovery of a mysterious artefact that the marine mistakenly touches, the ensuing energy kills his squad and unleashes the forces of Hell from a previously sealed portal in the base.
Your marine must then battle his way through the ensuing hordes to make amends for his carelessness and protect humanity from the efforts of the demon Maledict - the now transformed Doctor Betruger from Doom 3.
Once again expanding on the horror narratives of the original game, exchanging the "shoot first, ask questions later" mentality of the first two games for a tense, atmospheric experience, ROE is a respectable follow-up and expansion to a universe further established by Doom 3. Featuring a variety of new monsters, weapons and bosses that do what you expect them to do, the game doesn't take that many risks with the formula overall.
