Nice slog through dark, blood-splattered corridors and techno-horror scenery. It's no Half-Life, but it's a quality shooter nevertheless. The only thing it really suffers from I'd say - is just the lack of monsters and enemies; at most you'll get cornered by 4-5 of them at once; more often just 2-3 - nothing like what you might remember from Doom II.
Doom 3 itself suffers a bit from jump scares and enemy placement, scripted sequences being too predictable after the first 1-2 hours. But fortunately Ressurection of Evil improves on that.

A lot of people take a dim view on the BFG editon - and it is true that you can get better looking graphics with mods applied to the original Doom 3 version (none of which are compatible with the BFG version).
But let's face it - not everyone will bother with that anyway, and the BFG edition has the Lost Missions expansion pack included.
Even the No Rest for the Living Doom 2 episode included is good, played it all the way through.

It's a solid shooter, it will keep you entertained. There are better ones - but whatever, take it or leave it (take it).
