Summary: Dissapointing.
Review: This game is not all it was tied up to be. The screenshots and hype about this game before it came made it look a lot better than it actually is. The main dissapointment in this game is its lackluster single player missions. I mean, it started off well, as you blew away nazis with you sub machine gun or leuger pistol, and it's cool how they set up the castle to make you feel like youj're really in World war 2, with pictures of Hitler in nearly every room. But after the third level, the game gets boring, as you enter a grave and spend nearly two hours battling these skull people and redead throw skulls at you, and remiscents of mutilated nazis are found on the floor, which really gets boring after about twenty minutes. And if single player was fun anyways, it would be too short to have any real lasting appeal.
If you want a true World War two epic game, stick with medal of Honor: Allied Assault, because both its single player and multiplayer modes are a lot more impressive than Wolfenstein's.

Summary: RTCW by Nailcannon
Review: A really great game. Its Best described as a cross between a World War 2 Combat zone and the nightmare I had last week.
The AI used in the enemies is very refined. The Nazis set up ambushes, sneak up on you, retreat, snipe, relocate, regroup, probe your positions, and hunt you down with brutal efficiency. then there the "other" things. The Reich's scientist have created zombies and scientific terrors they call "Uber Slodat" The later levels are rough, to say the least. As for weapons; You use everything from secret experimental
weapons to kicking and throwing chairs at attackers.
My only complaint is that the game could have been more challenging and allot longer.

Summary: THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: If you like the kind of games the will scare the s#$t out of you at night.... This is it!! The single player is very challenging, even on easy, and the multiplayer is incredible since you can play with more than 64 players at once on one server!!! No matter what kind of First-Person gamer you are, you'll love flamethrowing people, sniping them out from towers, calling in for airplane support for bombs, and even kill people with bazooka-like panzerfausts!!! This game is one of the best ever made and I want to thank whoever made it cause it's a lot of fun.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not great.
Review: I heard a lot of great reviews of this game and I have to say I was disappointed. If you want Quake frag fest this is your game. If you want real WWII FPS play Day of Defeat Half Life mod. No one even comes close to DOD in terms of realisim and pure enjoyment. Single player is boring after playing online.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fantastic game
Review: Easily the most addictive game I have played. I mainly stick with multiplayer but I have also tried playing the single player game, but find myself bored after awhile. The single player isn't the best and honestly I find the supernatural aspect of it tiresome. Because of that I lessened my rating from 5 stars to 4.

The multiplayer is phenomenal. The most fun I've had in a multiplayer game. I highly recommend this game for anyone who loves multiplayer games.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: goood but ahhhhhh ummmmmm
Review: Return to CW is good just that once you have played it for so long you dont feel like that u have to finish it.dont get me wrong i am a gamer and i build computers i should know. THE MULTIPLAYER RULES

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This game is the best.
Review: The many different enemies you will encounter are awesome. Some of them will even make you jump out of your seat. It is like going to an absolute different world. The game play is smooth as silk. Two of the level has some jumping around problems. I have a radion 8500 so think it is the game but it is otherwise perfect.
This game is absolutely the best I have ever played. I hope they come out with more scenarios.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Forget single player mode
Review: In fact I played about 10 minutes of single player just to get used to the controls and jumped straight into multiplayer and I have to say, WOW! And I'm not just talking about the graphics. Now, although I'm a huge FPS fan, I haven't played them all, so I don't know how many elements may have been borrowed or seen first in other games. That said, I think this game accomplishes a near perfect blend of features and performance that make for an addictive MP gaming experience; well worth the price of admission.

One thing to note though, there is no deathmatch option (unless of course you play 1-1). All MP options are team based, which as it turns out is usually more fun.

Whereas in QII (still one of my favorite FPS) each weapon (except the blaster and submachine gun) had their own advantages and disadvantages that made weapon selection a strategy (and not a game of I'll just use the most powerful weapon on the map), class selection in RTCW is equally important to completing objectives and winning.

Another parallel to I find to QII is chatting. In QII chatting/taunting was as much a part of the game as fragging. In QIII game play was sometimes so fast and furious, you barely had time to say "NS (nice shot)" or "GG (good game)". In RTCW, game play is just as fast and team communication is essential, but instead of having to take your eyes off the battle to read your teammates messages, now you hear them instead. The game has about 40 or so of most important messages built in (like "sniper!", "medic!", "the enemy is weak!" both English and with German accents ) that are at most 4 keystrokes away. Messages can be sent to teammates only, or broadcast out.

Another nice feature over say, Medal of Honor (which is the game to get if you are looking for a great single player experience), is you can team vote to kick a team member that may not be playing by the rules. I don't think it happens that often but it just keeps people honest and keeps the game from bogging down. Since friendly fire is (invariably) part of the game a simple "oops" or "sorry" will suffice to keep you playing.

A unique feature to RTCW (to the best of my knowledge) is the reinforcement queue. When you die instead of immediately respawning you wait in a queue and respawn at regular intervals. As medics can revive fallen compatriots (if they are still in one piece) its often better to just try and call for a medic, although in the queue you can chat, change weapons or your class.

RTCW MP mode is more than just a run and gun affair. It combines strategy and skill (and some luck) to be one of the top MP games around.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as good as Medal of Honor Allied Assualt
Review: Medal of Honor beats it in Graphics, Gameplay, Control and every other catagory other then Blood. It has alot of Blood which is funner but you can also download blood for MOHAA.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another Excellent game for adventure and 1st person shooters
Review: Hey gang, I loved "NO ONE LIVES FOREVER" and thought I'd never find another cool game like that... Then, I found this one! I had to play a few of the levels in GOD mode because they were incredibly difficult. It's truly a lot of fun, but sometimes, you just don't stand a chance of surviving without a little help, or, cheating... Make more of these!! They're great fun!
