Only like 20 minutes of action in the whole thing, all of which is boring. FPS scenes were the worst part, other than the completely butchered doom story.
...the whole thing was action....

and i dont think they butchered the story, its not even a good story to begin with.
The story was butchered.

How it should have been:

"The player takes the role of a nameless space marine, "one of Earth's toughest, hardened in combat and trained for action", who has been deported to Mars for assaulting a senior officer when ordered to kill unarmed civilians. He is forced to work for the Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC), a military-industrial conglomerate that is performing secret experiments with teleportation between the moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos. Suddenly, something goes wrong and creatures from Hell come out of the teleportation gates. A defensive response from base security fails to halt the invasion, and the bases quickly get overrun by demons, all personnel getting killed or turned into zombies. At the same time, Deimos vanishes entirely. A UAC team from Mars is sent to Phobos to investigate the incident, but soon radio contact ceases and only one human is left alive — the player, whose task is to make it out alive."

And I like this review: http://www.doomworld.com/php/topstory.php?id=2712
