Wolfenstein: The New Order

On 05/08/2013 at 10:47 AM by smartcelt

Man,did I ever need this! After hearing the news about EA buying the game rights for Star Wars I was too depressed. Had to drown my sorrow in a big cup of java,but to no avail. The deed is done and now we must live with it. Why couldn't Disney resist the power of the "Dark Side"? But the fact a new Wolfenstein game is now on the horizon made my morning a bit brighter. I loved Return To Castle Wolfenstein and the Wolfenstein game I have for PS3 so much. Always been fascinated by the Nazi's involvement with the strange science and the occult. Saw a documentary about it once that scared the crap outta me. They were into some truly evil things that most of the world knew nothing about. These games get into that stuff and that's why they are so interesting to me. Hope the EA news did not wreck your morning as well.

What I'm listening to today.......

Where's the "God Warrior" when you need her? Maybe she could have stopped EA!!!

Long before they split into two mediocre bands! Why? Oh why I ask you?

I am excited, if only because it is set in an alternate timeline.

That would be cool. Well,the game is all about freaky Nazi robots,so I suppose it could happen. They saved Hitler's brain! And it's going into the robot!

Hmm, a modern day Wolfenstein with mech-terrorist Nazis? I'm certainly intrigued lol

I like games with mechs in them. It was just a matter of time before the Nazis made giant ones! This could be really good.

like Chris said, it's all about Mecha-Hitler.

He kicked my butt in Wolfenstein 3D. Guy was really tough! His evil mojo was too much for me.

I'm convinced now more than ever that EA actually stands for Evil Alliance!

Is there anything Hendrix's cover of Watchtower can't make more epic? This question is gonna bug me all day now.

I love that song. my brother played me the Hendrix cover when I was a kid. Then later that year I heard the original,by Bob Dylan. I was all....WTF!!!! I prefer Hendrix.

I really loved the Wolfenstein game on Xbox 360. Raven Software did a great job on it. I love that developer. I still pull it out from time to time to watch some heads explode.

Looks like MachineGames is the developer who is made of up ex-Starbreeze Studios (Riddick and Darkness) members. They're using the latest IdTech 5 engine that powered that game Rage. Oh man! This is looking good!

Good to have some news like that today. Keeps the dark forces at EA at bay! Rage was a fantastic game,so that's definitely a plus on that game engine.

Man, I wish I had the time to go play Rage. So many games have slipped through my fingers this past year.

A new Wolfenstein? I'm game!

Everyone likes killing Nazis. I especially like PWNING the ones who crop up online in COD:Black Ops 2 multiplayer. You'd be surprised how many swastikas you see on people's emblems. Kinda disturbing to me. I hunt them down mercillessly!

Kill 'em all with megadeth.

NSonic79 want! Who WOULDN'T want this?!?! an alternate history of 1960 where the nazis have taken over and it's up to original nazi killing bad ass William "B.J." Blazkowicz of our timeline to take them out!

We nee more alternative history games like this. Singularlity was a great concept of Soviet domination. And to think there are some folks already whining about this game for just being "nazis in giant robots"?!?!
