If you are looking for the most impressive game on the console, this is it. Honestly it’s a wonder they got this to run on the 360, it’s a behemoth of a game, something which is even more evident from the 4 disks you see when you open up the case. After a few clangers such as brink and hunted, bethesda pulled their finger out and published the excelled dishonored and then this, a reboot of the wolfenstein series. The series had been basically forgotten about by this point, and while the 2009 remake was decent, it was nothing special. Most importantly, it didn't really feel like a wolfenstein game. With this 2014 release, we have an action packed shooter which has that same level of excitement that made the series what it is. An excellent variety of weapons and enemies, plus some wonderful progression and in game challenges, it never gets boring. The story also makes this a must play. The game throws you into an alternate future where the Nazis has won the war. Playing as BJ Blankowitz, the nazi killing machine, you meet a variety of interesting characters and attempt to change history for the better. Overall its a great package and runs surprisingly smoothly, a great very late addition to the library.
