Video game villains don't get much more classic than the occult-loving Nazis of the Wolfenstein series - they've been goose-stepping and zeig heil-ing for more than 30 years. Unfortunately, the gameplay of the latest game in the series,Wolfenstein: (http://www.joystiq.com/game/wolfenstein-the-new-order)The New Order (http://www.joystiq.com/game/wolfenstein-the-new-order), is anything but classic. From our three-star review:
"It's almost as if there's a tug of war going between the big dumb shooter and the attempt to be subversive, with the result being a game that's not really slick enough to be an action classic, and not dramatic enough to draw you in."
We're not the only ones sending the Nazis packing, though. March on past the break to see what other soldiers thought of Wolfenstein.
