Uhm, not, it's using heavily modified version of the Doom 3/Quake 4 engine.

ah the irony...if its a good multiplatform game, then I wait for the pc release to save a DVD. If its a bad one, then I skip it to save a DVD. Ultimately, theres nothing left to play on the 360(except maybe GoW2 and BF1943)...the 20 or so pack that I bought in January is still sitting unused.

Ive played this all day and it gets a 9/10 from me. The textures are extremely sharp and the atmosphere and effects look gorgeous for the most part. I havent seen sharp textures like this since Resident Evil 5. Controls are like any other FPS but it gets a bonus for having southpaw option. Voice acting and story are very well done. Gameplay is solid with a nice selection of guns. The moment I fired that particle cannon, this game became one of my favs
Best game since RE5 and FEAR2

So if nigger meant also meant cough syrup as well it would not be a profane slur today? People react to the symbolic meaning of the word, that is what makes the history of it. Just because it meant/means something else, elsewhere doesn't change anything.

so is it necessary to play the first one to play this one since this one does start where the last one left off? Do I need to play the first one to understand the beginning of this or will i be confused or fine?

Played it for a bit now, game is really good.
It's really fun, missions are straight forward, but in between you can explore a small town and find items, it's just the right size to keep you interested, not too small, not too big.
For anybody who is interested: Game has german subtitles, but audio is english. I was hoping that maybe in the german version they'd have german speaking Nazis and english speaking Americans...
Swastikas are in, although I didn't notice that many of them.
But what's funny is that they don't call them Nazis in the german version (in the subtitles and texts), but "Die Wölfe", meaning "the wolves".

nah, waiting for the PC version, I only use my 360 for exclusives, that and I buy games I like so if I like a game enough to play it on my 360, I pay for it, so I don't have my 360 hacked.....and I can't play FPS worth a damn with a gamepad lol

This game is more like......you see made up mutant "nazi" creations/weapons and you are put into a sci-fi fantasy world sprinkled with WW2, the first was probably a bit the other way around.
Also, while RTCW's mutants and weapons only become prominent in the Norway levels, thus giving it some credibility and because of that it didn't have the sci-fi from the get-go feel. You were led into the "dark secrets" so it felt more original and cool.
A good example in the movies of this is From Dusk Til Dawn. Where Tarantino makes great work by doing exactly 1/2 of the movie as a bloody thriller with NO supernatural and introduces the vampires/demons only in the 2nd half, which makes for a GREAT effect.
Farcry is a good example of sci-fi/paranormal introduction which is also done later in the game and prepares the player for the "surprises".
In Wolfenstein 2 you get an exploding train of some blue crap in the 2nd level already followed by undead Nazis.....a little cheap?!
Also who made this game?! I'm confused.... Raven (which was an AWESOME FPS developer of such blockbusters as Hexen/Hexen II/Heretic and the original SoF)? Or EndRant who's logo shows up right after Raven's and with less spectacular special fx (making me think they're the underdog rookie developer?).
Also the GFX are a little less sharp then in WaW for example, but that's b/c of the engine. Otherwise I love it! Sound is FANTASTIC!! A nice detail also is how they brought back and remastered some of the original Wolfenstein sounds and sound effects. Brings back memories.....486.....wolfenstein.....rise of the triad.....duke nukem.....
Overall this was a nice, unexpected surprise this week as I'm a huge fan of the original and RTCW. |
