I'm glad someone is.

It's been four years since the last one right (PC) ? About time I guess. I was a big fan of the last one.
 
Ah. Wolfenstein. One of my favorite fps franchises (and my favorite Id franchise).

I loved the last one... even thought the multi-player sucked balls. The single-player mission stole the show. Great game.
 
[quote name='Medium_Pimpin']Great news. RTCW/ET is probably my #1 played game all time(WoW bringing up the rear though).[/QUOTE]

I guess the 360 taint that great!
 
[quote name='supadupacheap']Im sure its gonna suck ass. Or maybe balls. Or more it ll end up somewhere in between.[/QUOTE]

Bravo, sir. You beat me to the punch.

Are you talking about RTCW for the Xbox? That game still has some of the best Xbox Live play around. It's much more than just "Kill as many guys as possible while you hide on a hill with a sniper rifle" bullcrap.

Would that mean Wolfenstein could be the first videogame to suck taint?

The multiplayer sucked balls? I could have sworn multiplayer MADE rtcw. The singeplayer was typical id: derivative and repetitive.
