Wolfenstein: The New Order expands the series far beyond the 2009 reboot by delivering a surprising yet satisfying mixture of action and adventure. The lack of a multiplayer mode does little to detract from the package, given how well the perk system is implemented within the campaign, which...

Bethesda and MachineGames have produced a definite winner in Wolfenstein the New Order. It isn't a revolution in the first person shooter space but it's definitely a worthy evolution. The game is at its best when it is reveling in its gloriously unapologetic Nazi slaughtering violence.

Great implementation of old school game mechanics, Satisfying and viceral combat, Open level design with lots of secrets to uncover, Compelling alternate history setting; Great atmosphere, Supporting cast is well written and interesting, Nazis are bad

Boring opening mission, Questionable A.I; and difficulty level, Graphical glitches, Perks system not as fleshed out as it could be

In a terrifying alternate reality the Nazis have won World War II, though not in the conventional way. With advanced technology on their side they've turned the tide on Europe and have forced the United States to surrender with a heady mix of cyborg dogs, giant robots and pure evil.

Wolfenstein: The New Order is the latest in a long line of historically relevant shooters. It doesn't disappoint. Everything you would want from a Wolfenstein game is here, plus more. It's a good looking, incredibly fun old-school shooter.

It may have a few inconsistencies that can otherwise hamper the fine action in front of you, but this is the Wolfenstein return that for the most part, manages to mix deliciously old-school violence with a new generation of visuals and storytelling.

Imagine, if you will, a world in which the Nazis won World War II. The world would be a completely different place than the one we know now. Oppression, punishment, strict order, death, torture, intolerance - these are the things that would befall society.

Nazi killing; Surprisingly deep story and characters; Balanced gameplay with tons of options; Did I mention you get to shoot Nazis

Periodic graphical and AI glitches; Audio imbalances with no way to correct; Game does not pause when controller dies

Wolfenstein: The New Order is not a game that should work, really. Plenty have tried to revive old school arcade shooters and bring them into a modern era, Machine Games is one of the first to truly succeed at it.

A first person shooter that doesn't take itself too seriously but still delivers a fun gaming experience!

Best FPS of the year so far. Best single player Wolfenstein experience yet! Picked it up at the midnight release and played it all night. I plan on getting the platinum trophy so there are easily 20+ hours of gameplay here. The first thing that I will say is that the story really sucked me in.
