This game made me physically sick.

First let me say I haven't played the PC version of this game, just the PS2.

--
Starting out in this game, I felt like I'd actually been transported back into the times of Doom 1 and Wolfenstein 3d.

This is because the graphics are horrible and outdated, I've seen better games on PS1.

The controls and unability to easily look around also make you very seasick, very quickly.

Buy this game if you really need to get the feeling of original Wolfenstein. Except this time, you will need motion sickness pills.

awful

I just rented this game and it stinks. The cut scene graphics are great but the in game graphics are weak and silly (i.e. the foot kicking down doors and such and the stabbing motion with the knife). Anyway, the opening is blah, I was way more impressed with the opening level of Medal of Honor which sucked you into the action and never really let up. Forget this joke of a game and get the real thing (MOH) or better yet - go get Head Hunter, Max Payne, Enter the Matrix, or Socom.

this game flat out sucked

o my god, this is the worst shooter i have ever play. I rented this game and played it for a maximum of 20 minutes and stopped. It was such a dissapointment! The graphics were horrible and the enemys are so stupid like the guy in the begining that is messing with his motorcyle what a dumbass. I wouldnt buy it or rent it, it was a waste of my time. If you want a real game then play Medal of Honor: Frontline

Terrible Game

This game is terrible. I rushed out and bought it on release day. If only I had a time machine....

I only played about 15 minutes of this game and turned it off. I got rid of it as fast as possible. The graphics are lame and the gameplay is not much better. The controls were confusing to say the least. What bothered me the most, however, was the glitches. I repeatedly witnessed enemies getting "hung up" on things in the game, thus allowing me to wail on them while they could not chase me or attack.

Overall = Terrible

The PC version of this game is much, much, much better and I highly recommend it, especially compared to this pathetic attempt at gaming.

Let down

I've only played the first 3 boards so far. However that's enough to know this game is worth only $..., not $....
The shooting action and killing action are fairly [bad]. When you shoot, you don't get the sense that your doing the shooting. It feels more like your pushing a button on a controller which is activating an animated gun on your television screen. The same is true for when you hit someone (shooting them). When you hit a bad guy they just fall-no dust blowing off of their jackets or blood. If you played and liked Medal of Honor or the oldies like 007 goldeneye(N64)or Perfect Dark(N64), then you will be disappointed. I consider realistic gunshots(a sense of recoil and power coupled with good sound effects) to be the most important element of a good 1st person shooter, if that [is bad] then there is not much worth playing for.
Otherwise the graphics were just OK. Nothing to right home about. Controls were decent, learning curve pretty short (10min).
Overall this game brings nothing new to 1st person shooters. It would have been better if released in May 1995. If your thinking about buying this I would definately rent it first or just dig out Goldeneye from your archives.
I'm assuming the PC version is a whole lot beter because I keep seeing rave reviews for the PC. If you play this on PS2 and are raving then I would guess your only about 10 or 12 years old and never played the games mentioned above before.

Dark visuals and boring

I just finished this game and was not happy. The visuals are way too dark, even on the brightest options settings it was hard to see. What a disappointment. My biggest problem was with the very linear plot, one way through each level, walk in and shoot. No strategy at all. My latest test of a good game: Walk up to a fuel tanker truck, place a ton of explosives on the side and detonate. If the truck doesn't move and there is not a scratch on it when you're finished, then you have a crappy game on your hands. Wolfenstein failed miserably.

The only thing worse then a Nazi is a un-dead zombie Nazi

I was never really interested in the Wolfenstein series so I could give less if it came out for PS2-- or at least I thought. I was in a local [store] and no good game in sight. I happened to see Wolfenstein on the top shelf and against my better judgment I bought it. When I first popped it into my PS2, I was disappointed. The graphics were not super and the game play seemed dull. After about an hour I found myself liking it. Why? Because this is one of the few first- person shooters out where the only point is to shoot and kill; no difficult puzzles or complex stories just simple fun violent shooting. Don't get me wrong it wasn't the best game I've played, but non-the less it was fun. The whole point of the game is you have to stop the Nazis from raising the dead and bringing all kinds of hell upon the world. Do no fear; you will have an arsenal of 16 weapons at your disposal, like a combat knife, a Colt.45, an MP40, an M1S Snooper (sniper rifle) and the experimental Tesla. Besides fighting Nazi soldiers you will also fight zombies and X creatures. Zombies are pretty easy to kill but X creatures can take a lot of punishment, so take them out with a flamethrower or a heavy machine gun. The game will expand across 6 environments from the pyramids of Egypt to Castle Wolfenstine itself. Each level has secret areas and treasures that you can collect. If you collect enough of them you will be able to upgrade you health, armor and many other things. The graphics are the only real flaw with Wolfenstein; they don't really interfere with the game but they are not perfect and they remind you that you are playing from your living room. Return To Castle Wolfenstein is an average first person- shooter. Although it may not be the best game out there, it will entertain you for hours so if you ever have a spare [item price] buy this game.

Not too bad at all

This is the first time I have ever played a game from the "Wolfenstein" series. Aside from the aiming and the quick moving enemies, this game is pretty good. The graphics and sound effects are neat, and the story is a nice portrayal of the WWII era. Not as good as "Medal of Honor", but enjoyable.

It can get boring at times "yeah i said it!"
