I haven't even finished the game. There was a small period where I felt like I enjoyed the game, but it quickly faded so I never went back. I tried the multiplayer and I thought it felt extremely weak, cheesy and truthfully boring. I happen to agree with your point. In fact I'll take it one step further. I think there are a lot of game design companies out there that are 'gold diggers'. I mean, how many times will EA release a sequel without any true meaningful advances. IMO, this Wolfenstein title is the same as the last Quake. That was another game I didn't complete because it bored me. With all my bashing I guess I should commend someone - right now I'm playing Modern Warfare 2 a lot. I think they've done an amazing job. Nice going Infinity Ward. ID/Activision/Raven - seriously, cmon. Make something that makes me interested in game design again or at the very least - playing. I want to be inspired by you guys like I used to be. We all do.

ID/Activision/Raven – seriously, cmon. Make something that makes me interested in game design again or at the very least – playing. I want to be inspired by you guys like I used to be. We all do.

I'm new here and I thought of dropping a few lines here since it seems noone else does... I haven't actually played the new Wolfenstein yet and frankly (also judging from the reviews), i don't think I even want too. The thing is that I'm mad as hell at ID Software and Activision acting as "golddiggers"; that means taking a great & legendary game franchise and then using it as an excuse to sell a new product. Wolfenstein 3D already has it's rightful place in history; RTCW and ET found their place right alongside it. The most noticable tribute to the latter two is, that there are still (after 8 years) a lot of active RTCW and ET servers running and many are full of people every day, while Wolfenstein's multiplayer is (reportedly) operating poorly despite the game being only a few months old... Bottom line: legendary games should be left in peace instead of being remade for profit, IMO. P.S.: let us know your final conclusion, when you finish it ;) Bye Hi!
