7. Doom 3 (2004)

Developer: id Software

Genre: Action

Theme: Man vs alien

Lets get old school with the Doom series. Take a stab at Doom 3 which is essentially a remake of the original Doom game, with reimagined monsters and frights. The game is still filled with the creepy and claustrophobic atmosphere we've come to love.

The game begins with a massive demonic invasion plaguing the Union Aerospace Corporation's (UAC) Mars Research Facility, destroying practically everything and everyone in its path. Players take control of one of the few survivors, a space marine with no tangible identity, and must face off against a horde of evil monsters.

Nothing like some good old monsters from back in the day

As you try to meet up with your squad you'll fight through a series of levels filled with locked doors, slowly encountering new weapons and monsters. Enemies can materialize without notice and can startle you when leaping out of the darkness. Most enemies have melee and ranged attacks which will distort your vision. Occasionally, you'll be treated with hellish hallucinations and otherworldly images.

Since you play as a nameless and non-distinctive character, the game tries to direct your focus onto other things on the UAC base. You will find e-mails and voice recordings from various characters. Some will contain passcodes for storage chests and locked doors. You can also listen in on various conversations and observe little details, all of these things really flesh out the game's world.

Who can pass up a classic?
