Wolfenstein PC Demo Released

boring game. no spark. rehash.

Activision wants me to pay €59,99 ( $89,81) for the Steam edition!?!?!

Sure! I'll buy it right now......
Don't know if I should laugh or cry.

Speaking as a regularly-abused PC gamer, I have one question: how effective is releasing a demo *months* after the retail release?

People who have the game:

Can people play the MP with each other across all versions? With different, localized versions of the MP?

Too little way too late.

I'll probably post this later tonight, but I've got 10 PC games I have either never or no longer play and want to sell. All are on either CD or DVD, all are in great condition, some have manuals, and some have original casing.

Wolfenstein
Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 (all activations available)
Far Cry 2 (not sure but I think 1 activation may be lost, still 4 more available)
Age of Conan (with unused key for 30 days of play)
Halo 2
Penumbra: Black Plague
Grid
Fear
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Sam and Max Complete Season 1

Offers, anyone?

Hey guys, I had a lot of fun playing this game. The lighting effects are fantastic and the textures all have a nice grittiness to them. There are hidden items throughout the game that are fun to find, and it's an interesting world to explore. The guns have a punch to them, all have their strengths and weaknesses delineated, and the upgrade feature is a big factor instead of being tacked on. The level design constantly surprised me (mostly due to the cool lighting, which is a result of some new technology they whipped up for the engine, and the shadows in this game are probably the best I've ever seen in a game). Running through and blowing away Nazis with advanced weaponry was very satisfying, and when you're done playing through the first time all the weapons and upgrades are unlocked, so it's fun to go back through on a harder difficulty with the added firepower.

The character models are a little dated to my eyes, and look to be similar in tech to say, Doom 3, so the mouths don't move too much and the faces are expressionless. The levels require you to run back through parts of some levels, but it's usually worth it because combat is fun, so instead of dreading seeing respawned soldiers you will welcome it and jump right in! The special powers are cool but run out very quickly so you're not an unstoppable God, instead you have to conserve and think on your toes. You won't find enough treasure to upgrade everything, so replaying is probably something you'll want to consider. The boss fights are easy but fun, and the puzzles can hardly be considered puzzles they're so easy, but I think they were designed not to impede the flow of the action, and they give you an excuse to use your powers outside of combat, and because of the neat Vail effect and FOV change, it's always fun to do.

It's a fun game and worthy of any gamer's catalog. It kind of reminds me, gameplay wise, of F.E.A.R. Running and gunning is the preferred method of play, and it's light-hearted storyline is easy to follow and reminiscent of a Hollywood blockbuster movie, such as Indian Jones, although the lead character is easily forgettable due to his lack of witt or one-liners (or even actions in the cutscenes) that make a character memorable. However I'd love to see a sequel to this game where they delve a little more into personal matters surrounding who he is (and women he picks up, inner thoughts, etc... although how they can do that without making an "Uncharted" clone I'm not sure.)

Oh yeah, gameplay was about 8 hours or so, but with a couple more runthroughs you can probably squeeze another 4 or 5 out of it if you're bored.

fix the interface, fix the toggle sprint, duck, and the aiming, its very loose.

This game was unappreciated as far as I'm concerned. I rented it on the 360 and loved it for what it was. Nothing revolutionary, but very solid game mechanics.

Having just beaten the game on PC last night...

... If you enjoyed Prey, play this, if you enjoyed Doom 3 or Quake IV, play this. If you enjoyed Quake IV go and stick your hands in a blender, but I digress.

It's simplistic, predictable and far too easy, so make sure you put the 'uber' difficulty mode on - then play with a minimum of thought and a maximum of imagination. Think Inglourious Basterds and unload on those nazis with a drum magazine MP40.

Still waiting for the promised patch, I don't blame id or Raven for the games shortcomings. But all I can say is FU activision!

The multiplayer of this game was a joke. It needed another year of work on it.

Impressions after two, three minutes playing:

Looks good (what current gen game doesn't?) FSAA didn't work. SP demo, no saving, no quicksave. It doesn't take too long until you can kill nazis. It's very easy on the highest difficulty. I stopped playing after the first nazi died, It could become harder. Console-ish interface. Limited options.

Dark Sector & Timeshift were more enjoyable in the first few minutes.

Risible.

What about the patch that was going to fix the mess they made with the multiplayer?.
