You take on the role of super-American BJ Blazkowicz, a jovial man with the sculpted features of an obese Nathan Drake. The Nazis are digging out some bizarre historical ingredient known as Black Sun Energy, acting like general douchebags once more. For the sake of time, let’s just pretend that Wolfenstein is about a single American who discovers the fabled abilities known as The Veil and uses them to blow some skulls up during World War II.
Wolfenstein can be finished in under 12 hours, but there are multiplayer options and different difficulty settings to keep you interested.
Despite numerous flaws, Wolfenstein excels at one crucial aspect: shooting. The controls have a lightness to them that makes switching between iron sights more fun and arcade-like than the laborious Killzone 2 experience. Which style of gameplay you like best is personal, but there’s no denying that Wolfenstein’s shooting foes is enjoyable. They respond in a variety of interesting and pleasurable ways, such as holding their throats when wounded in the neck or clutching their chest when a potent long-range shot strikes them in the heart. There may be some bloody reactions because the game is fairly violent.
