Other then that though the graphics are pleasant and more importantly are atmospheric which brings you right into the game. The water is somewhat improved with it reflecting the surroundings however its static and doesn’t move even when you run through it, which makes for a very unconvincing water state. Graphically the game doesn’t look much different from the PC version although I was quite surprised on some of the larger rooms a slight stutter reared it’s ugly head, but this is very infrequent and doesn’t spoil it for the player. Thankfully the controls do the game justice and with a little time or likewise having played Halo more hours then I care to mention, you can easily get into the swing of things and soon start blasting your way through the countless enemies. So with a wide grin I continued and finally found myself in Castle Wolfenstein where the PC version began. Army Ranger is here to save the day.įirst of all for people who have played the PC version, you can understand why they will soon get confused when starting out on the Xbox version, as there is a whole new episode on our version that PC peeps never had. First coming to the PC the graphics were obviously a huge improvement, and while having Wolfenstein 3D elements, it wasn’t quite the same, especially when people who had not played the original couldn’t understand why there were zombies in the game, but never fear, B J Blazkowicz, a U.S. It seemed there was a never ending trail of opening doors and finding the odd secret room, but for it’s time it was the business and certainly brought me many hours of pleasure.įollowing on from such a great success it was only a matter of time before one of the greatest remembered games of all time returned to show off what technology can do today. Wolfenstein 3D was set in Castle Wolfenstein and the lovely enemies which were all sprite animations (2D) all dressed in Nazi clothing and shouting German words at you as you went from room to room. In the original game for most people it was the first time you were able to play in a 3D environment. The game was of course Wolfenstein 3D which came out on more gaming formats then I could possibly remember.Īfter loving the original all that time ago, I eagerly waited for this game and here it is. The realm of 3D was here and this game paved the way for many first person shooters to come. Many a year ago, there came out a game that was set to revolutionise the way we played gaming forever.
