Great Nazi-Killing-Fun overall !
User Rating: 8 | Turning Point: Fall of Liberty PC
I bought this game as an used copy for a few Euros and got pretty amazed how much fun it is. OK, it's really short. I spent like 5 hours playing the single player, but it's hell of fun to knock down some Nazis or use their bodies as cover while shooting. The graphics is still up to date even in 2010 with the all the bump mapping and the physics (The game runs on the Unreal 3 engine that is pretty powerful). The level design is superb in my opinion. The large hangar in the Zeppelin airship in the last level just stunned me. I think the Wolfenstein (I mean the new one by Raven Software) level designers borrowed the idea to have a large Zeppelin being used as an airplane carrier. I also liked the London tower bridge level and of course the starting sequence in New York where you start on a construction site of a skyscraper when the attack of the Nazis begins. The game has many little flaws like the A.I. where enemies hang in the environment and you also can get stuck but other games have that too so it's not that bad. I played Turning Point Fall of Liberty after playing Wolfenstein and I like it actually more! In the new Wolfenstein I missed advanced Nazi stuff like futuristic planes or tanks... exactly what Turning Point Fall of Liberty shows a lot. Ideall the new Wolfenstein and Turning Point Fall of Liberty should go together to make the perfect Return to Castle Wolfenstein successor but that's just a wish :)
