Bethesda and Machine Games surprised many with their mature and very serious (not to mention rather sad) take on the PC classic Wolfenstein with The New Order . Naturally, their prequel for The New Order, artfully named The Old Blood, is anything but mature, serious, or sad.

Fun mockery of B-movies and both Nazi and gaming cliches; same solid gameplay from The New Order; and more Nightmare Levels keep The Old Blood vastly entertaining

Combat is incredibly twitchy; focuses too much on stealth without much variety between levels; and not much has been added to set The Old Blood too far apart from The New Order other than the timeline

Another Nazi-blasting triumph, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is the perfect companion piece to The New Order, and proof positive that MachineGames knows exactly what it's doing with the series. The Old Blood is more of the same, which is certainly no bad thing.

There is something to be said about taking a no nonsense approach with a game's DLC plans. When so many shooters pepper you with season pass offers, map packs and other downloadable add-ons all for a hefty charge, Machine Games and Bethesda have decided to take a more simplistic approach by...

I played through The New Order and was a little underwhelmed. Yeah, it was fun, the graphics were great, etc, but it felt like it was missing something. Then I got this. It feels like a game that you played as a kid.

I'm a huge Wolfenstein fan, this game doesn't disappoint. I'm already playing it through a second time. Great value at $12, can't wait for the next one.

I have to respect The Old Blood for being genuinely good value. As a stand-alone game, it offers about the same level of content as The New Order but for a stand-alone DLC price. Gameplay-wise, it's the same as The New Order, just with different levels.

Brilliant game at a fantastic price if you love shooting games you will love this game What are you waiting for get it now x x

fast service, would use again

Great Nazi shooter really enjoyed it short but sweet a nice change from call of duty games much more fun for me.

bought this game after i got the new order cause i could get enough of wolfenstein
