Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:
Wolfenstein is the direct sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny/Wolfenstein RPG. It featured a "re-imagined" disguised dark-haired B.J. Blazkowicz, retaining the unshaven look seen in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and dressed in civilian clothes rather than his usual military uniform. The game mainly consists of the player shooting his way through hordes of different types of Nazis, ranging from normal soldier to ninjas. To deal with the large amount of enemies, the player has access to many typical WWII-weapons like the German MP40 or K98 rifle. In addition, during the course of the game he finds the medallion and learns four powers. While at first entering the Veil only allows him so see enemies more clearly and use strange flying creatures as bombs, he is later able to slow down time, surround himself with a protective shield or make himself stronger. However, the medallion's powers drain its energy, which needs to be refilled at power-spots that are nearly invisible in the real world.

For years I have been fascinated by Wolfenstein games, I had a lot of fun with RTCW and when I heard about this game and how hard it is to get a copy and your options are to download a pirated copy or in resale (and they are too rare and expensive). Personally, I like this game and have replayed it several times, that touch of occultist with Call of Duty gameplay seems unique to me and I love the weapons they show. In fact, in a way, MachineGames' reboot has multiple features coming from the 2009 one. It may not be the best Wolfenstein in the franchise, but in a way it is canon in relation to Caroline and other characters like Strasse, so playing MachineGames' Wolfenstein without taking this one into account makes no sense. Microsoft already owns all the rights to it, they should re-release it and GOG is an excellent opportunity.
I have Civvie 11 to thank for introducing me to this game, and while it does have a few quirks that make it annoying, it's an FPS experience I'll never forget. It's like Raven Software looked at Call of Duty and said, "Hey, why don't we take this basic gameplay template, put you in World War 2 with a fully stacked arsenal, and give BJ superpowers as General Deathshead uses a hell dimension to conquer the world?" How can you hear that and not want to play this Wolfenstein, especially when it has minor ties to the old Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the New Order?

I remember pirating this because i liked how it look but then i got into it and IT WAS SO FUNNNN. The Medalion mechanic that allowed you to have several effects you could use whenever you wanted mixed with the guns and the horror feel of some of the levels? This is a certified banger of a game and would *LOVE* to pay for it if it gets on here.

I've never understood why this game seems to be completely forgotten or ignored. It's a great game. It's no masterpiece but it is a perfectly good entry in Wolfenstein franchise and it deserves to be preserved with the rest of the series.

Wolfenstein, A very underated game. Played it for hours, finished it played it again. My PC version no longer works, and I find it would be my go to games if it still worked. Let's get it back. Great story, cool weapons and upgrades. If you like Wolfenstein or not, you'll love this Wolfenstein.

I know this game isn't as impressive as Wolfenstein: The New Order or even Return to Castle Wolfenstein, especially since it plays like a COD game at the time, but I still liked it and would love to see it re-released on GOG. One of my favorite things about this game was using the veil, and the game feels like Return to Castle Wolfenstein in certain parts. Also, MachineGames' Wolfenstein franchise had some connections to this installment, such as Caroline appearing in both The New Order and The New Colossus.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
