My review is influenced by the fact that I don't have a lot of time for gaming anymore, yearn for some atmosphere, a good varied storyline and action, and some good old fashion Wolfenstein shoot-em-up castle fun. I have yet to play ANY of the new Wolfenstein games after RTCW, which I loved, mostly because they got such mediocre-to-bad reviews, except for New Order and Old Blood. I finally jumped into Old Blood and was hooked. The cinematic cut scenes aren't too bad at all, don't take you out of the game's atmosphere, and the story stays focused on mission-based objectives that are more than just run-and-gun repetition (escaping from prison, semi-challenging rail gun sequences, duck-and-cover fights and plenty of weapons and loot). There's some basic stealth, which is satisfying and in short bits, and you can pretty much choose which weapons you want to go with depending on the situation. Just taking out the Super Soldiers alone was a blast and full of tension, just a nice, basic set-up for the player to make his way into the castle prison to find his friend. Loved it. I picked the game up on a $5 sale and it's exactly what I was looking for. If you're a shooter-only guy maybe this is old hat by now, but I come and go through genres, and revisiting shooters happens as I see fit. I'm in my early 50's now so have played PC games for many years, and these fun single player cinematic shooters in the style of the old Raven games never gets old. I'm fine with it being on the shorter side as well, and look forward to playing New Order next.
