Wolfenstein: The New Order Review – Darkstation

There are so many shooters and so many of them pit Nazis as the antagonist, it’s hard to imagine a world where we need one more. One more game with over the top action and gratuitous violence. But Wolfenstein: The New Order makes the case for this in spades. With superb writing, a memorable cast of characters and excellent gameplay that blends the old and new methodologies so thoroughly as to provide nearly countless ways to play, Wolfenstein reminds us just what video games can do. Wolfenstein 3D changed how we looked at first person games in 1992 and The New Order, while not as big of a step, may be just as important of one for the future of the genre.
