  1. The addition of some sort of tie-in to the new game is nice to see too, for those of you that plan on picking it up. There's a lot of content in the game too, and for the price you're paying, I'd say it's certainly worth checking out, even for long time fans that have already played the game to death.

    Wolfenstein 3-D remains fun after all these years. If you've never played it, download immediately and see what spawned the first-person shooter genre.
  3. Wolfenstein 3D is not a first person shooter, it's The First Person Shooter.

    This is still one of those timeless classics you can enjoy over and over again. It’s just a very simple shooter that takes you back, if you played it back in the day that is.

    Feels rather tired nowadays. Great price, though. [Issue#181, p.89]
  6. It is offensive, violent, archaic, complicated, bland, and repetitive. If you can appreciate its retro qualities, however, $5 is a good price!

This was the game and franchise that made killing Nazi's cool! I loved the boss battles and the Death Cam they had. The secrets are a great addition by themselves, but I'm just not a huge fan of giant mazes and some levels where the secrets are needed to complete a floor. I mean for those that aren't obvious. It gets annoying when you're forcing this game mechanic to get me to touch every wall to find a key. Would have liked it more had this always been optional. Like the bonus floors for example. Either way it's a great game and a must play for people who love old school shooters. Full Review »

Not only does it have that retro look but it will bring back nostalgia if you played it back on the snes. With all the secrets and treasures to find it also gives the game good replay ability and with an amazing price of 5 dollars. It is worth getting. Full Review »
