Loved every minute of this game. Real focused single player expierence and deserves a buy. Especially when on sale.

I never knew Walter "Bill" Heap. My grandfather, like all my grandparents, died before I was born, so I didn't get to hear any of his war stories first-hand. I'm told that, despite being decorated for his actions in the Second World War, he spoke of arbitrary and unglamorous experiences; of men...

This is a series with some serious pedigree. While it may, at times, have disappeared amongst the throng of other first-person shooters out there (and there's plenty of them), Wolfenstein is the father of them all; the prototype laid down before id Software went on to blow us all away with Doom.

Old skool FPS at it's best! I have not played the Wolfenstein games of the last generation, on the original and this new incarnation, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! This is not your run of the mill FPS like Call of Duty or Halo, no no, this is fast paced balls out shooting!

Fighting the Good Fight

is the melding of your typical, everyday shooter with quality writing and a cast of believable and relatable characters. Machinegames' more grounded treatment of the often way over-the-top alternate Nazi history is also a nice touch, and while The New Order is in no way, shape, or form a simulation...

Interesting alternate history storyline; High presentation values; Great writing; characters

Archaic ammo/item pick-up; Bad dual-wielding

Based on Castle Wolfenstein, a fondly remembered 1981 Apple II action game, id Software's Wolfenstein 3D in 1992 popularised the idea of the modern-day first-person shooter, now a multi-billion dollar genre.

An over-the-top shooter with fun action, memorable set-piece moments, and decent characters, Wolfenstein: The New Order successfully transforms an old-school game into a modern experience.

Satisfying over-the-top gunplay; Memorable set-piece moments; Surprisingly good character development

Fighting multiple super-powered enemies at once is a tedious grind; Some missions are mundane; Tone frequently shifts between serious and silly

Wolfenstein: The New Order out Duke Nukem Forever's Duke Nukem Forever. No offense to developer Machine Games, but this game had zero buzz before release. Then it came out roughly the same time as Watch_Dogs, and the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. Why?

This game starts off strong but loses steam near the end. I enjoyed the smaller character driven parts such as sneaking past the border in the trunk of a car or breaking out of the concentration camp more so then fighting wave after wave of robots which is what comprises the last level.
