Darwin, you liar!!! (Rating: 4 out of 5) From the time I first had a buddy show me Wolf-3D on his PC, I was hooked. FPS is most definitely the best gaming I know of. Where else can you take out your frustrations of everyday life by wholesale killing, all the time yelling, "take that (insert favorite obscenity here)!!!!".
The answer: Nowhere, unless you want to end up in prison for life doing "favors" for cigarettes, or in a mental institution, weaving baskets with your toes while wearing a straight jacket.
So, do yourself a favor. Put down that assualt rile, save yourself a couple grand and go to you local electronics place, buy a game console and some FPS games. This one is a great one and I highly recommend it.
Hey, it even has a "kick" button, so you get to break things, too. I mean, hell yeah! Killing AND breaking stuff?!?!? Does it get any better? I submit that it does NOT (sorry for stealing your joke, Brian Regan).
"Why the review title?" you ask? Well, this game has so many different moves you can do that it literally uses every available item on the game controller and some even have more than one function if used with another. And believe me, at times, you can do some really cool things and used most of them at the same time....so, the fingers you were born with just aren't enough. Darwin stated that all creatures have the potential for evolution to meet certain needs or changes? Well, liar liar, pants on fire! I have played this game for hours, willing with all my might for extra fingers to sprout so I can become the best Wolfenstein gamer in the universe..and hopefuly fingers that aren't stupid lik ethe ones I have which keep changing weapongs while I'm fighting, instead of the "kick" button like I told them to.
But, that's a story for another day.....
All in all, this game is freaking great and if you are an FPS fan, you will not regret the purchase once.
Even Brian Regan might be playing it right now, killing in a blood lust, screaming, "take that, davezilla, you f$%king joke stealer!!!!"
mediocre ugly port (Rating: 2 out of 5) Wolfenstein is a legendary frachise. First appearing on Apple before the time of the Mac...then Atari, DOS, Commodore64...ID software picked up the ball and Wolfenstein 3D became one of the first FPS (first person shooters)...leading into Doom, Quake, and the rest is history.
Tides of War is an incredibly ugly, flat, lifeless, colorless and borish game. The graphics relative to other xbox games of it's era simply do not measure up. Very dissapointing.
Quake3 Engine. Not the best.
Wolfenstein Faithful Disappointed (Rating: 1 out of 5) Ok, I played Wolfenstein way back in the day and loved it. I was thrilled with the prospect of reliving the good old days on my XBox.
Imagine my disappointment when I played this game. This has no intriguing plot like the original, the graphics are sloppy, the controls are almost "Dead to Rights" terrible, and the only good point of the game is the weapons.
Apparently, the designers got lazy, then decided to market this waste of space based on a name and some updated weapons. Leave this one on the rack, especially if you are expecting something worthy of the Wolfenstein brand.
This game rocks (Rating: 5 out of 5) I have played this game on my PC and bought it for Xbox. The PC version pales in comparison. The introduction in the game explains a lot more on Xbox than the PC version. Some sections will irritate you and take you a while to get out of. The graphics are amazing, the story line is beliveable. The story line I love because, most games don't have little movies or any at all. The weapon varity is excellent. Some weapons I used more than others. Hey, I don't want to give away a lot.
Best First Person Shooter (Rating: 5 out of 5) This is the BEST first person shooter I have ever played. I cant stop playing it. The graphics are awsome and the sound is the best. I still can believe the story line, its great. Killing Hitlers Army, what more could you ask for.LOL. Besides the soldiers there are zombies/mummys and x-monsters which is a bonus for this game.I love playing it and it is so addictive.I cant stop playing it. I would recommend this game to anyone who loves first person shooters.
