Wolfenstein 3D

If you give this less than 5 stars, especially if you give it 3 stars then you're clueless and your opinion is irrelevant. This is video gaming history...and it reshaped everything. Giving this a 3 is like giving Einstein's theory of realitivity a 6 or 7 out of 10... Although, I imagine video game history is less relevant or important than that...everything is relative... I played this back in the 90s near when it first came out. I originally thought it was DOOM as my friend had some version of DOOM that he was playing. I quickly discovered that this wasn't DOOM... However. I still found it to be very enjoyable and played it for many years. "EIIIII-!" "SPHYON!" Anyone who thinks that they can objectively rate this beneath a 5 is a fool, especially a 4...Doom 1 and 2 which inspired every other great shooter in the world was inspired by this game... (It was the same guys behind it's creation...) Of course it's dated, do you expect it to be fresh/ new and revolutionary for the next 30 years? The game is ancient... video games have long ago taken from it, copied it and done more and have done it better... But of course that is an evolutionary process... Calling this dated is like saying single cell organisms were dated.... This game was a work of genius. If you play this, take it for what it is, don't expect it to be on par with modern FPS shooters, I mean that's common sense.... It still has a charm/ thrill of it's own. It has a classic fun sound track, and the villians are still fun to play against. The game was always a little bit goofy but was taken more seriously back in the day as it was the most realistic shooter...It was meant to be a little funny, unlike Doom... It had made far more advances than MOST if not ALL shooters (since for it's time). This game and then Doom is a work of pure genius, DOOM giving the illusion of variable heights which wasn't in WOLF3D but WOLF3D inspired DOOM. I'm sure someone is rating DOOM below a 5 here too...

This is one of the first true FPS games it was not the first but it was one of a couple of titles that made FPS games what they are today. Wolf 3d will be very familiar if you have doom or quake (made by the same studio). By todays standards it's not much to look at and there are better games out there, but it's not a bad game by any stretch. basically your a us agent going through a castle killing Natzi's. It's well worth buying if you want to see where doom, far cry, even COD came from it is also pretty much a brainless shooter which you want sometimes and for £6 you can't really go wrong. I dropped a star because it's not doom only criticism really.

I played with a source port and the experience was a little better, but I can't play this game for a long time, the maps are too maze-like, and the game is over 30 years old, but I respect the fact that it is classic and revolutionary for the gender.

Great games but $10 is WAY too expensive.

version 1.4 is so bugged that i can some times not kill soldiers that i am firing straight at. i got killed, because the hit boxes is too small.
