PDZero wasn't too hot. I still liked it because of the classic maps that were redone. Not nearly the scale of the original perfect dark, which was really the feature and perfected Goldeneye engine. Def another good fps series, at least for consoles.

Didn't these screenshots come out months ago? Why is he commenting on them now...

Andrew Yoon seems clueless as to the impact of the Wolfenstein series. Dismissing this title as "unsubstantual" is pretty weak considering the past success of Wolfenstein games. This is especially overly critical considering the limited media currently available to judge the most recent installment. Here Andrew hasn't even seen the multiplayer yet... which more many people is the selling point for a game. Even games with great single player camapaigns (COD4) are largerly bypassed by eager gamers ready to play online. This is confirmed by the recent statistics listed for COD4 on ign.com

Lets look at a bit of history here: Wolfenstein 3d is pretty much credited for the birth of 3d FPS. Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Made GOTY, and had a HUGE community following thanks to it's incredible multiplayer component. The class based and team emphasized gameplay wouldn''t even be partially replicated until next gen games such as BF2 and COD4. Then we have Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, the first substantial FPS that I can remember being given to a community for FREE. Thats quite a history for a franchise, so to look at a couple of screenshots and suggest it's unsubstantial is ridiculous.

The last Wolftenstein Multiplayer experience was so close to perfection for me, that I am cautiously optimistic about this release. This is largely due to the different studios developing the game. I'm looking for nerve and greymatter, instead we have Raven. Having said that, I still think this dismissal is blasphemous to the franchise that is largely considered the grand pappy of gaming.
