Raven Working on the Next Wolfenstein
by Maarten Goldstein, Oct 04, 2005 5:36pm PDTWell I figure it would be pretty apparent I had problems getting online at X05. Now that is mostly OK since there wasn't a whole lot in the keynote that was unexpected. One thing however, was the announcement that Raven is developing the new Wolfenstein game. Not a whole lot was mentioned, or shown even (although it was clear it was a continuation of the mad scientist type world of Return to Castle Wolfenstein), but the Xbox 360 is the primary development platform for the game and it's based on new technology; a sort of extension of the MegaTexture tech used by ET: Quake Wars. Basically, expect Wolfenstein to have one huge game world. No more loading individual levels.

Oddly enough killing zombies, nazis, or nazi zombies never seems to get old. I still shed a tear for games that get developed initially on a console and then get a "PC" port.
I will hold on to my ideals until death, dammit.

id Software titles and IPs have always been developed for the PC. Now the primary (!) platform is a console. At least the Xbox 360 is very similar to PCs.
Though I do enjoy Raven's multiplayer.
1) Elite Forces CTF totally rocked, too bad not many ppl played it
2) SOF 2 mulplayer was very enjoyable, deathmatch infltration
3) I loved deathmatching in hexen and heretic. Hertic 2 suked though

If this game was all killing nazi zombies (not nazis) with Tesla cannons and Venom miniguns then I'm there, but but the idea of hefting that BAR one more time... ug.
