Solid package updated for modern PCs
I need to start off by saying that all the hate leveled at BFG edition over vanilla Doom 3 is overblown. Most criticism comes in the form that DOOM 1/2 are "censored", and that the experience is "consolized" (meaning limited options menu). Time to address these first. The "censorship" in DOOM 1/2 comes in the form of Nazi imagery (only found in some hidden levels) being removed and the red-cross on the medkits changed to a red and white pill. That's it. Both games are fully intact here and feature updated controls for a modern kb+m setup. DOOM 2 even has an additional level that was previously unavailable. As for the "consolized" argument. This is somewhat true. The options menu is far more limited compared to vanilla DOOM 3. However, the essentials are here. Rebindable keys, FOV slider, 60fps/120fps toggle, Vsync, antialiasing, etc. It doesn't really bother me as the game is set up to run well on most modern PCs and I'm not that picky with my graphics options. However, what did bother me is the lack of subtitles and the fact that the FOV only goes up to 100. There are some console commands available to get around these somewhat. My only other complaint is that the ports of DOOM 1/2 do not support rebindable keys. All this aside, these games are feature complete and most importantly feel good to play. This is easily the best looking and smoothest version of DOOM 3 available. BFG edition actually comes with some great features that vanilla DOOM 3 didn't have such as native 16:9 widescreen support and XInput controller support. Be warned that in the GOG version of DOOM 3 BFG, MULTIPLAYER IS DISABLED. So if that is a selling point for you, get the Steam version instead. LAN multiplayer can still be enabled through console commands though.
