Happy 20th birthday Wolf 3D!

by Stephen Heller Featured 15 Comments 21 Votes 1087 Views 10/05/2012 Back to News

Do you love Call of Duty? Maybe you're a Battlefield kind of gamer? Or perhaps you enjoy a narrative-based first-person shooter like BioShock. Well you should all be thanking id Software and Wolfenstein 3D, the grandaddy of the genre who turns 20 years old today.

To celebrate, id has ported Wolf 3D to web browsers, giving younger gamers a chance to enjoy a very interesting history lesson.

If you don't have PC handy, the iOS version is currently free on the App Store, so there is no excuse for not celebrating this momentous occasion.

Played it this morning, but on iOS and it's balls as expected.
Playing it now on my laptop and my god, it's so different from today's FPS games. I can't resist exploring each room. [Derp]

+1 to the facepalm.
Heller, man, you need to get your sphincter clean before it infects the rest of your head. ~

And I hope you didn't misread how this is the first time I've played it, but I've heard about it before. Sadly, I was two months old when it first came out.
