Awesome!
Why is Wolfenstein 2009 not available on Steam? I'm fairly sure it was once.

Looks like a really solid shooter with lots of "spray and spray and spray until the mag's empty" potential. Gotta love dual wielding massive shotguns. I really hope they have you busting out of a Nazi prison for old time's sake because the Riddick world building DNA is still all over this. Wanna live? Get a shiv.
Like Wolf 3D, health and armor pick ups are part of the game, but it also regenerates partial health. So if you're at 55 health, it will at least regenerate to 60. If you're at 41 health, it will regenerate to 60. If you're at 10 health, it will regenerate to 20. With that in mind, it's similar to how single health bars will regenerate in Resistance (or was it Resistance 3?).

Is Gibbing in? That would be appropriate
So it works just like Resistance 1 and Far Cry 2/3. I Like it.
After watching the video, I'm officially on board with this game.

Man, does that look nice, especially the second photograph. Personally, I like the art style probably the best in that one. I wonder what they will do with the setting; that's one of my most interesting points.

video is removed now :/
Was it taken down? I was just watching not just 10 minutes ago.

That quakecon demo got taken down :/ Love the bit in the two minute gameplay trailer where he cuts into the cover using a laser and makes a hole. So many possibilities if they open the environment up to that weapon!
The Darkness is my favorite FPS so I have hope this will be something special.

devs says campaign is between 14-20 hours long depending if you explore or not.

It looks old school and i love it
Makes perfect sense now. In the video I could see a hud early on but then a camera or a persons head was in the way for the rest of the video.
I'm really hoping this winds up as a beautifully expanded version of recent gameplay-focused DD shooters like Blood Dragon, Gunslinger, and Rise of the Triad. More budget spent on PEW-PEW and fine-tuning, less on setpieces and "epic narrative," please!
Probably has to do with the IP changing hands from Activisoin to Bethesda/Zenimax.

Yeah, considering Bethesda "reworked" (read: took out activision's name and logos out of the game and inserted theirs, lol) Quake 4 for steam I would expect them to do the same for Wolf '09 eventually.
What little I saw from E3 was a battle in some kind of hangar, while this was on a train and later on a bridge.
TBD. But when we have official vids, we'll make sure everyone knows where to see them.

Looks surprisingly great for id Tech 5. Granted, RAGE looked nice for what it was, but that was mostly down to the art. It was a relatively static looking game with not a whole lot of dynamic effects going on like Wolf has.
I don't understand how Wolf can have a nice film grain effect while The Evil Within's looks like dogshit in comparison though.

They have different artstyles, no point in comparing them. UE3 has tons of different looks, all tailored to serve developer vision of individual games.
i don't know man. i appreciate that this is goofy, and i loved syndicate and riddick and all that, but ever since the release of stuff like gunslinger and far cry 3 blood dragon... I wonder if stuff like this should be 20 dollar releases instead.
See? I called a FPS a 'should be downloadable' instead of a platformer. The tables have turned.

Their 'artistic vision' of low resolution film grain sucks then. It doesn't make the game look dirtier or grittier, just last-gen. Silent Hill 2 running in HD has comparable grain quality and it's a 12 year old game.
Evil Within honestly looks awful and it's really hard to believe it shares the same engine with Wolf (and RAGE).

No. It was a story section with the Nazi lady and her boytoy on a train and a long combat section on a bridge reminiscent of Half Life 2. Much better showing than the stuff at E3.
This looks like it's going to be higher quality and longer than stuff like Gunslinger and Blood Dragon (more unique assets than Blood Dragon anyway). Both were fun, don't get me wrong, but Wolfenstein sounds like it's doing more.

-idTech5 engine, so you know the gunplay good
-IMPROVED idTech5 engine, so no more Rage-esque po-ins all over the place, just smooth 60fps
-Meaty campaign with variety of non-shooting bits by Starbreeze who are often pretty good at that, if Riddick is any indication
-Mecha Nazis
-MECHA NAZI DOGS
-MECHA HITLER ON THE MOON(probably)
ok then

If its a return to form for old school FPS style games like it appears then it will be an easy day one purchase. I miss those games so much although singularity did scratch the itch pretty good as well as bulletstorm. I wish that game had been more successful and wish the best for wolfenstein.

To be fair we're talking about comparing that is supposed to be released mid to late next year, in comparison to a game that was going to come out in about 3 months.
I do hope that The Evil Within gets some graphics update, they have time.

OMG, no ADS, outrageous weapon designs and no weapon limit
I want this so bad.
Idtech5 huh, I wondered what engine it uses.
As long as it doesn't have the awful texture pop in of rage I'm hopeful.
bethesda pls, no strawberry jam on my screen when low hp, no color desaturation on low hp
Shooters are supposed to become BETTER when you are on low hp (tension), not fucking worse (can't see shit)
Will this support mods?

The game was developed by Raven and Activision's publishing rights expired last year, defaulting back to Bethesda as id is now owned by ZeniMax. That doesn't rule out Acti and Beth agreeing to terms that would see the game redistributed, though (see: Quake 4 and Hexen/Heretic), but who knows when or even if that'll happen -- I'm waiting on Quake Wars to return myself (id now owns the rights to the game and it was developed by the independent Splash Damage, so I have no idea what the hold-up is).
Yep. I think they both look great.
I especially don't understand the hate towards TEW.
