Well, a another iteration in the Wolfenstein series is brought to the Xbox, and it ends up being on amazing game.
Gameplay - The game is basically an update from the PC version, but has some new levels at the beginning of the game that help the whole game make sense. It's your basic FPS set around WWII. You get to shoot Nazi scum and even battle creatures of the occult. You have a nice variety of weapons to choose from. You get a knife to sneak up on enemies, two types of pistols, some machine gun type weapons, your classic flamethrower, a couple sniper rifles, and even an electricity shooting weapon called a Tesla gun. Also there are a couple types of grenades, always a must in a quality FPS. There are some nice variations in the gameplay that keep the game from being a straight forward kill everyone you see as fast as you can game. Some levels require stealth, one in particular requires you to finish the level without letting the Nazis see you and set off the alarm. Also a nice intuitive part of the game happens in the tomb areas where there happens to be some trap that you have to avoid and figure out how to get past.
Graphics - Well, They are simply stunning. The in game graphics are a huge overhaul from the PC version. The cutscenes look spectacular aside from the hands which look as if I made them.
Sounds - Also great, the music keeps your heart pumping and the adreneline flowing. The voice acting is decent while the weapon sounds are impressive. My personal favorite sound is when you eat some hot or cold food and they make the eating sound.
Replay Factor - It's Xbox Live enabled so the game Ranks very high in this area. It's in a class of it's own with how you get to choose what kind of character you want to be in multiplayer.
Bonus - Unlockables are great things to see in games and this game delivers a doozy. After beating the game you get the full version of the game that pretty much spawned the future of FPS games. You get Wolfenstein 3D.
