While some video games overwhelm you with sheer scale, titles like Asura's Wrath and Doom Eternal make you the boss player right upfront.
Wolfenstein: The New Order turns ten years old today, so we decided to play it again and discovered just how much of an extinct kind of game it is.
It's an outstanding game and so was The Old Blood. Also a lost era of gaming. Interesting, I received a physical copy of The Old Blood 9 years ago today from Poland. It was digital only in North America initially upon release so I had to import.
Wolfenstein: The New Order launched 10 years ago today, but can it stand up to the modern FPS titles it inspired?
I disagree. Its still a fantastic game, with very good gunplay and a surprisingly loveable cast of characters and a good story trough many different and interesting setpieces
All The New Order needs for my tastes is a this gen enhancement patch.
I played New Order a couple of years after launch and I give it an 8/10. The shooter holds up because it is focused on being a good shooter. There is no crafting, no RPG elements, no open world find the question mark Weapons are fun. Enemies are fun. Levels offer a nice mix of stealth and shooting. You get to be the predator; this isn’t a game about fending off waves of enemies while a robot companion unlocks a door. Most importantly, New Order is the last of a dying breed of single player shooters.
Weird all the Wolfenstein articles.
Can you guess what will be announced at Xbox showcase?
What Machine Games did with Wolfenstein franchise is awesome. The game play definitely to me , is still very fun to play !!!
i think the most impressive part is that one week out of the blue the wii is up 27%
the rest was rather predictable IMO
sorry but this must be wrong, cause konami Told that allone in EU they sold about 1 Mio. units + US about 650000 + Jap about 580000 = 2,23Mio
units and not 1,8 mio.
MGS4 bundle sold out everywhere and if you don't believe that reason why the PS3 numbers are down then your just wrong. When Sony resupplies the bundles in early July the numbers will be up once again.
Why are people approving hardware/software sales number from VGChartz? They've said it themselves that it's only an estimate and ANYBODY can make an estimate so why approve it? Let's just wait for official numbers from NPD or the manufacturers themselves.
I understand what you mean, but the numbers that VGChartz gives out are only estimates. Even you can estimate the amount of hardware/software sale per week. VGChartz numbers are never right and most of the times they are way off from the official numbers.
