Customers value the fun and smooth gameplay, along with the surprisingly good story in Wolfenstein: The New Order. Positive feedback also highlights the action, weapons, and the overall first-person shooter experience. While some found the difficulty challenging and replay value limited, the game's generally well-received aspects outweigh these concerns for many players.
I've played every entry of Wolfenstein & let me say this is by far the best entry to date. Story has been fantatsic, visuals are top notch, and the voice acting has been campy as I would expect and on que.

The latest game in the Wolfenstein series, New Order, is an absolute blast to play. The shooting is tight and responsive thanks to the game's unyielding frame rate. No matter how much is going on, the engine refuses to let the game dip (in a noticeable way) below 60 frames per second. The sacrifices that had to be made to keep the steady framerate are easy to see and mostly easy to forgive. The texture quality is very inconsistent. Some textures look marvelous while others look over sharpened and riddled with jpeg-style compression artifacts. It can, at times, look very ugly, but the benefit that is drawn from the trade-off on graphical fidelity is well worth it. Lastly, unlike most games in the series, this title has a very competent storyline. Of special note is the attention given to both the main protagonist and antagonist. B.J. is finally given a more fleshed out personality and the villain, Death's Head, is expertly portrayed as being an absolutely twisted and demented monster. For fans of the series and fans of FPS games in general, if you can do without multiplayer, you should definitely pick this game up.

Wolfenstein: New Order has great graphics with an interesting story. In this world, US lost WWII and the N@zis rule the world. As previous Wolfenstein games, it's basically you vs the world with nothing but w/e you find on the ground or take away from the hands of a dirty dead N@zi. This game could have benefited much from a multiplayer, but then I guess it would face criticism for having a N@zi team to fight against online. All in all, the gameplay is good, the game is not too hard, and though at times it may get frustrated, I found myself entertained throughout the game. P.S. I guess Best Buy considers the word "Na zi" "inappropriate language." So my apology if this offends anyone, I can't help it these are the villains of the story.
