Wolfenstein The New Order Pays Tribute To The Past

This Weeks AAA Release Wolfenstein The New Order Pays Tribute To The Past and Tops the All Formats Chart.

But to really fully appreciate the current game Xbox Players take a look back at the NOT SO HUMBLE beginnings of a genre leading IP

The series of course was originally a massive hit on ....... wait for it ......... Commodore 64, Apple, MS DOS, and Atari 400/800.

Castle Wolfenstein The game was originally a stealth based action shooter, that required players to think more about the way in which they had to escape from Castle Wolfenstein, and the Nazi opposition that it contained.

I played original 2D Wolfenstein games on the Atari 800 and they were brilliant fun with lots of sneaking around. And when you finally completed a game it featured a mission map generator so plenty of replay ability.

What's great about the new order is there is an easter egg in there where you go to sleep, have a nightmare, but you're actually playing the original wolfenstein. When I first experienced that in game I became giddy like a school child, because I remember playing the original on Atari. The New Order was a great game. I'm on my second playthrough and am still loving every minute of it.

Great game... wouldn't mind a remaster

Loved Rain, funnily I was just thinking of it this week.

jznrpg231d ago

Definitely a good game and loved the art style. My daughter watched me play it when she was 4 years old. I’ll have to replay it with her someday now that she’s older. It’s crazy it’s been around 11 years.

I was thinking of pulling out my PS3 super slim this winter to replay Rain, and try to tackle some of the backlog I acquired.

I love Enslaved such a sleeper hit, Asuras Wrath a very good game I still own, and I wish EA would put out a new Dante's Inferno another game I enjoyed. I never heard of the Rain game I might have to try it out might give Ebay a snoop or two.

Knightofelemia230d ago

It got old tbh. Machine needed a break from the IP. Indie is a good reprieve.
