It's going to be pretty tough for Doom to top its first update, which added the all-important option to keep your guns locked in the center of the screen just like back in 1993. Update 2 won't have quite the same pop of retro authenticity when it arrives on Friday, but it will have plenty of fresh additions to both the multiplayer and SnapMap modes.

The game's first paid multiplayer expansion, titled Unto the Evil, will arrive next week with three new maps, a new gun, and even a new demon called the Harvester, among other perks. You can play all the new maps as long as you're partied up with someone who owns the expansion if you want to try before you buy.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar.
