I've played this game for 10 years and have hundreds of maps, characters, weapons, mods, and dozens of gametypes. With Ballistic Weapons, Sergeant Kelly's Weapons, Ragdoll Mutilation, Bloody Hell, and Tweak Tool it is the most rampaging slaughterhouse I've ever seen in any multiplayer FPS. The graphics and physics are way ahead of it's time and this game has the most replay value of any game I have ever played. I am also a mapper and have been doing so for 8 years. If you have the Editor's Choice Edition of UT2004 you can find the editor in the system folder so you can always make a new map to kill people in. UT2004 set the standard for fast paced bloody mayhem. I hate easy bots in games and Godlike bots in UT2004 will kick your *** hard so you can always train at your own level without feeling bored. Perfect game.

I have been an FPS fan my whole life and have personally placed the original Doom games at the top of my list. Brutal Doom doesn't take anything away from the original Doom that makes it amazing but enhances the experience 10 fold. It's harder, nastier, faster, and has incredible sounds and visual effects without ruining the classic look of Doom. The real-time lighting is beautiful and the brass ejection sounds couldn't be any better. I laugh out loud when gibs stick to the ceiling and walls and splat on the ground after the room is silent. It's complete overkill madness and mayhem in every way. You paint the maps red with gore by the time you complete a level. The fatalities are satisfying and truly brutal as possible. I can't find anything significant enough to score this mod below a 10/10. I am picky as hell about new games because old games are so much better to me and Brutal Doom adds what is needed to really feel like you are in hell with no rules and a bunch of big guns! With that said I must end this short review and play some more BRUTAL DOOM! There are still plenty of walls I need to paint red for my dear Daisy :P Cheers.
