So what do we make of this game ?

Wolfenstein the New Order

Graphically it looks pathetic but its getting some decent Hype and by all accounts is quite Gory,guess if its got the gameplay then graphics are not so important.

Im personally on the fence with this one.

I think the weak prediction of FPS dominance been ended is clearly wrong, FPS dominance seems more than ever.

Is there a list of AAA next gen games anyway alongside genres?

I didn't think the graphics were bad at all. The reviewers thought it was "beautiful" and "truly next gen"? Mind you, they're probably watching the uncompressed version.

Looked fun to me.

Looks good to me

I remember playing Wolfenstein on my Commodore 64

Yes, it does look good - might get this!

Yeah but you know to well a trip to Vision Express for you and Toady is in order.

It's no Second Son, that's for sure! But the definition looks really nice and I do like some of the "over bloodied" action.

Who remembers turning the gore settings all the way up on Die Hard Trilogy? There was so much blood plastered over the taxi windscreen, you couldn't see where you were going.

"Are you aiming for those people?!"

Uhh, yeah? Why else would I be driving on the sidewalk?

I loved Return to Castle Wolfenstein and have a lot of fond memories of it. Along with Max Payne, it was one of the earliest games I played on a PC. Such a cool inventive game, great crazy story and setting.

It would be nice to revisit the original RTCW game with improved graphics.
