Doom Resurrection has some pretty good qualities. Firstly, the controls are intuitive; I found aiming (performed by tilting the screen) surprisingly easy to use. Likewise, it looks visually impressive (at least for an iPhone game) and it has a good length to it. That said, it's not without some shortcomings too, the first of which is the woeful story. The ending is horribly anticlimactic and all the way through you have to endure pointless dialogue. Sure, it wouldn't be too bad if it was spoken, but instead they opted to use text (probably due to the limitations of the iPhone), which only goes to slow the pace of the game. Despite these issues, I did at least find myself wilfully finishing the game.
