"One look at Wolfenstein and you'll see why it's being touted as a "reboot": the Nazis are toying around with energy from an alternate dimension, leading to a heavy dose of zero-gravity and time-stopping nonsense. The unkillable American special op BJ Blazkowicz has access to some damn strange, sci-fi-style weaponry (like a Tesla coil-powered electricity gun, and my personal favorite, a Nazi-vaporizing particle cannon). In essence, the game feels a lot like Wolfenstein, and yet somehow manag..."
Yahtzee decides to crush Wolfenstien into the ground but if that isn't good enough for you, he also does the whole thing in limerick form. Let the laughter ensue and for a bonus treat at the end, Yahtzee reveals his next review to come out next week.
"Wolfenstein is an old school fps game. The levels are linear, the enemies are straight forward and the weapons are simple. Despite this and a few modern game mechanic the game still is average at best. The SP campaign is a bit short and the MP mode misses the mark completely due to tech issues. Wolfenstein isn't an awful game but it's nothing stellar and it definitely could've used some more work."
"Wolfenstein 3D seventeen years ago redefined what gamers had to look forward to in the future of the FPS genre, and we have all benefited from it. But has this new iteration developed by Raven Software and published by Activision managed to keep up with the rest of the pack? Read on to find out."
"Excerpt from the review:
In the end Wolfenstein is a bad ass first person shooter in both single and multiplayer. It doesn’t bring a lot to the table as far as innovation to the FPS genre, but it makes it up for it by doing everything else perfect. The look/design of the game is great, graphics are fine, guns and powers are fun, and the multiplayer is actually worth playing.
Though we have games like Modern Warfare 2 and Halo 3: ODST on the horizon, going against what is currently out t..."
"Throughout the history of video games, few enemies have made more appearances or better targets than Nazis.
It is not implausible to estimate at least a trillion digital Nazis have met bloody ends on gaming systems worldwide since Wolfenstein 3D kick started the first-person-shooter genre 17 years ago.
Wolfenstein 3D blazed the trail for id Software’s 1993 release of Doom, which took the gaming world by storm and cemented the genre’s place as a pillar of video game design.
While the ..."
"Review Excerpt:
"Bj's BACK!!!!!!!!
And I'm kinda let down...........Really I am. Let me first say that I can even count the times I've played through Wolfestein 3D, or how much time I put into Enemy territory in the original Xbox, but this game doesn't do it for me.""
"Essentially, the variety of components that Raven Software has thrown into the pot resulted in an interesting brew, though none of individual ingredients stand out as something exceptional."
The name Wolfenstein has been associated with the First Person Shooter genre for years now. Usually games that bare the name Wolfenstein are quality titles. Is this new game on the Xbox 360 another quality Wolfenstein product or does it miss the target. Read on to find out.
"Id software has finally brought their classic FPS franchise Wolfenstein to current-gen consoles. Back when Wolfenstein 3D was released, it presented cutting-edge technology and helped expose a lot of gamers to the world of 3D shooters. Now 10 years later, can Wolfenstein inspire a whole new generation of gamers, or has time passed this franchise by?"
Were you worried the new Wolfenstein would be a flaming piece of crap? Rest those fears, young one, Raven Software have actually done quite a delightful job.
Though as with any game, the community hasn't reached a universal consensus on this one exactly, our own Lydia Sung has given it her stamp of approval, so if it's something you've been interested in, definitely give it a rental, at least.
Read on for the full review to see if it's up your alley.
CVG have realeased a harsh but fair review of the new release, Wolfenstein. Wolfentein has not recieved as good reception as developers Activision had wished for. Many other reviews have also slated the game for "not being up to modern age standards."
This I think, is one to give a miss.
