Played it.

* Competent level design, occasionally good, never amazing.
* Typical Q3 engine fare (familiar comfortable physics, lousy lighting) with some extra eye candy (curtains, spider webs). Essentially, Q3 with a tit job.
* Dull, chiefly linear play. Kill, find next door, etc.
* Monsters pop out of hiding spots in walls -- ho hum
* Best use of a knife in an FPS, ever.
* Zombies/skeletons are dull to fight. Several notches below Blade of Severance in terms of combat, not to mention atmosphere.
* AI is overrated. A couple of tactical enhancements, such as running behind pillars, but that's about it.
* Nice moody music -- best feature of the demo.
* Good integration of cut scenes, especially as zombies besiege Nazis in catacombs.
* Emotional punch? Some in the first level early on, but it settled into routine pretty quickly. Second level is a fooking bore. As a whole it felt workmanlike, uninspired: if it were a flick, it'd be a B-movie with a fat, over-the-hill Stallone in the lead.

Verdict: "Nazi bitch, you're off my hdd."

Why doesn't anyone notice the accuracy and recoil system that Wolf uses? Everyone says too "arcade like" but it is one of the few FPS games where your body position, movement, and sustained duration of fire or rate of fire effect your accuracy in single player.
