Doom 3 BFG Edition Release Date Announced

June 19, 2012

Bethesda announced this morning that the Doom 3 BFG Edition will release on October 16th, thereby lifting the suspense and jamming yet another game into this busy October/November release season. It will sell for $29.99 on the PC and $39.99 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Europe will receive said version on October 19th.

The BFG Edition includes remastered versions of Doom 3, the Resurrection of Evil addition, a new mission called The Lost Mission, the original Doom, and Doom 2. The remastered Doom 3 includes 3D optimization, 5.1 surround sound, improved lighting effects, a new checkpoint system, and (most importantly) Achievements/Trophies.

I am so sorely tempted to pick this up for the PC. I don't have much time to play it right now, but the college nostalgia of Doom 2 beckons.

I've been a writer since I was five, but I came to the gaming realm a little late--post college. However, I've well made up for that ever since I took over my husband's PlayStation 2. I've been writing about and reviewing games since 2005, and can currently be found writing for P laystation LifeStyle and Strategy Guide Reviews on a regular basis.

I'm a professional writer and aspiring yoga teacher by day, but a I'm a game-loving, comic-reading, fantasy book-obsessing geek 24-hours a day.
