Does killing Nazis ever get old? Actually, yes. Eventually. That is, unless they’re supernatural Nazis. Hence, we have Call of Duty: World at War’s zombie-fighting mode, as well as a little thing called Wolfenstein. Nazis are best consumed (via bullets) when they are presented as cartoonishly as possible, and w🐻hat better way than to amp them up with Tesla-coil implants and crackling undeadifying energy? Gather ‘round young ‘uns, and let ol’ grampa GR tell you a story.

Before you kids got your filthy hands on the likes of Halo, or Killzone, or hell, even Counter-Strike, the mother of all first-person shooters, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, was all the rage. No, wait: make that Wolfenstein 3D. Wrong a🐼gain? How about Castle Wolfenstein? Well, sort of. The game that started the series that begat a genre, way back in 1981, wasn’t an FPS at all. So iꦿnstead let’s jump back (forward) to Wolfenstein 3D. The whole “3D” part was kind of a lie, at least by today’s standards. Everything was represented by 2D sprites, but HOLY CRAP FIRST PERSON VIEW.

Ever since that fateful release, gamers by the millions have been playing as cameras with guns taped to the bottom of them (up through the Doom era) or cameras with guns taped to the bottom-right of them (the anatomically correct current era). Every “looking through the eyes of someone with invisible legs” game out there owes a debt to the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Wolfenstein franchise, and hoooo boy, is that a legacy to live up to.
