Wolfenstein: The New Order - Playstation 3

Perfect condition, perfect item, and an amazing game. 5 stars!

It's a pretty cool - ok - awesome & fun - game. The graphics kick ass, the game play is good. While it's not exactly like the Doom or Wolfenstein of yesterday where you just wandered thru a level at will dispatching enemies and reaching the level endpoint, it's still fun. Another reviewer mentioned that "it's not a game; it's to a "to-do list", it's true that the game does have a certain linearity to it with objectives to accomplish very much a la SOCOM style. But that doesn't make it any less fun or enjoyable because they're still plenty of old-game style action while accomplishing said objectives. You still look for hidden areas, find hidden "stuff" like the old days it's just on a more linear way. And you have a blast in the process.The only real issue I had with it is that the controls are "wards-back" (backwards). Most FPSes use R1 to fire, and R2 for weapons select (think Socom, Killzone, etc). This one filps 'em , making for an annoying adjustment period while your get your brain re-adjusted. And even then you can get tripped up in a melee or heat of the action. And while I'm only half way thru, there is replay value apparently because the course of the game alters based on certain decisions you make during gameplay. I also have to agree with one of the other reviewers that the sex cut-scene was unnecessary as it added nothing to either the story or the game play. So I'll zing the makers on that.But overall, it's far worth the $15 for Amazon's warehouse deals/overstock. 103 people found it 4 or 5 stars, and the other 22, well... whatever.

This is a great game in the Wolfenstein series. New story line and outstanding graphics, new villains, monster robots, storm troopers and hounds. I have played the Wolfenstein games since the original Wolfenstien 3D came out. In fact during the latest version there is a hidden "Nightmare" that takes you back and allows you to play the to the 3D version and you play it for several minutes, it is hilarious to compare and see just how far the graphics capabilities have come. I would highly recommend this game for anyone who enjoys fast action play, outstanding graphics and many surprising twists and turns, not to mention things jumping out at you and scaring the wits out of you. Order it today you won't be sorry.

I'm maybe halfway through this installment in the Wolfenstein series of games. This game is fine. The graphics are great, the storyline isn't bad, the gameplay is clunky and the controls are not intuitive. The levels aren't very inspired and the developer seemed to get stuck trying to decide whether to make this an open world game or a linear game. They didn't succeed on either front (just like Hitler in WWII, amirite?) and the game suffers for it. Some of the levels are downright tedious. Take the incarceration in the Nazi prison where you literally are stuck in an assembly-line, manipulating a machine that makes .... something. Concrete? Helmets? Who cares? I don't know who thought that would be a fine idea for a setting but it's boring as hell.Adding to my "fun" was the decision to not create a multiplayer part of this game. I guess when you've built your reputation as a franchise that creates amazing multiplayer experiences (Doom, Original Wolfenstein, etc) you just have to start branching out into cutting corners. The explanation given that the developers didn't want to take away resources from the single player experience just tells me that this was yet another mis-managed project. Fine, I bought the game knowing that but I still feel that this offering suffers for it, and not just in terms of consumer experience. Look at all the other games which offer multiplayer and sell DLC or allow perks to be collected/purchased and tell me that Bethesda and not-id made a smart decision.
