Was planning on getting this until i watched the first few minutes of it on twitch. First scene in the game has made me swerve it.

Gameplay looked good mind.

Good to hear.

I overloaded on the first two Wolfensteins titles in a short space of time so leaving this new one until after Christmas and will play it fresh.

Looking forward to it though :)

I’ve not played them before, but started the new one a few days ago and I’m really enjoying it.

Also you can play the original Wolfenstein 3D in the club area on your ship, nice little throwback to the early 90’s!

All the next-gen Wolfenstein games have a secret room on every level where you can play the original game.

Not played the new one yet but nice to hear they have done it again. :)

Loaded up 'The New Colossus' during my dinner hour. Its good to have Blazkowicz back!!

Must admit I've never played a FPS level where my character is in a wheelchair.  10/10 to Bethseda for originality :)

Loving it already and will keep me amused until 'Shadow of the Colossus' is released in Feb.

Just got this (The New Colossus) and am currently in New York on 5th Avenue.  Loving it so far.   The best fun I've had on a single player FPS since Bioshock Infinite.  Oh, and the optimization for this game is absolutely PHENOMENAL!  Looks fantastic and runs it too.

Ha ha super odd! Couldn't sleep last night so jumped back in, after not playing it for months...think I'm basically a boss fight away from the end :wave

It is indeed. Is the previous game worth playing? Thinking about that when I'm done. Love the characters too. Hanging around on the u-boat listening to some of the conversations and the cut scenes are laugh out loud funny. The writing and world building are just excellent. After being so disappointed with Prey I was wary about another FPS, but this really is a fantastic game.

Think I need to restart 'New Collossus' but drop a level.

I began it on hard difficulty and struggled to sneak up on the commanders without being spotted.

Might restart on Normal difficulty.

Holy shit, Frau Engel was a super evil bitch in "New Order" but she is proper bad in "New Colossus"

That first cut scene with her in (with Caroline and her daughter Sigrun) was brutal,  Proper certificate 18 material :)

This is quite a brutal game in parts but loving it.

Perhaps one the most scary antagonists I've ever faced in a video game.

Finished it last night.  Was good fun.

Holy shit that was a difficult level even on normal difficulty.

the cut scenes are laugh out loud funny.

The scene near the end where Blasko's pregnant wife Anya goes wild was one of the most incredible cut scenes I've ever seen. :)

The audition with Hitler and the birthday party on the U-boat were all equally scary, bizarre and funny all rolled into one.  Bombate getting caught back-scuttling Sigrun was a wow moment too.

Yep, a pretty insane game to be honest.
