id software has confirmed that the new Wolfenstein game will feature Nazis, but no Hitler.

Just because Hitler was a douche and is now dead they won't put him in a game?

Discrimination I say! There should at least be a 'ghost of Hitler' or something. Or.. Not >.>

However, upside, new Wolfenstein!

Though, they're not out until some undetermined date in the future.. This could get tricky.

Is it just me or does that somehow imply that they dont want the story to end to leave room for sequels?

Seems pretty clear from the article.

Also, does Godwins Law still apply, when the article is about Hitler?

Doesn't really matter to me if Hitler is in it or not. I am just happy we are getting another Wolfenstein game. I had some good times with RTCW on the Xbox.

I agree, but it would be interesting to see how they use Hitler in the sequel. Maybe he'll be like G-Man from HL.

rhuitron · 9th Aug 2008, 08:40

So maybe an Bin Laden? Or Maybe a Saddam?

Mr_Sinister · 9th Aug 2008, 14:15

Hitler or no Hitler Wolfenstein ROCKS!

I think there should be a 20 foot tall hitler firing nukes out of his arms and u-boats out of his a*se

Correct...it ran on a Zuse Z3 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zuse_Z3 and was developed during hitlers lifetime...they just had to wait 45 (how appropriate) years for the first VGA display to arrive...

I'd have loved to have seen that. Hitler in the 1980's would have been hilarious. He'd probably be in leopard print and a black vest, maybe with a faded red bandanna. Maybe in a band as the drummer or the bassist. He might have pulled off vocalist if he worked on singing rather than shouting, since he was a pretty good orator.
