If you’re anything like me, you’ve been waiting entirely too long to resume the role of B.J. Blazkowicz. Since the announcement of a newWolfensteintitle from id eons ago, all has been silent. According toCVG, that veil is soon to be lifted by next month’s edition of PC Gamer magazine.
It all started with a tiny littlepicture. It’s a huge pixilated headshot of B.J. from the originalWolfenstein 3Dwith the caption “He’s Back.” Interestingly, B.J. does look like he’s been shot a few times in the picture, as his nose is freshly wet with blood. Is this a foreshadowing of an injured Blazkowicz in the new Wolfenstein title, or is just an iconic image? Also, why must we be teased like this?
There are very few games out there that have captured me as much asWolfensteinhas. The playful abundance of swastika placement, Hitler boss fights, hidden passages, andsuper-awesome-wicked-nasty flamethrowershave helped define my experience with first-person shooters. Now, I can only sit back and pray to Thor that decent information finally comes out for this title.
