Product Description

Product Description

Fusing epic World War II battles with heart-stopping covert operations and tactical combat, Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War uncovers Hitler's horrific obsession with the occult, the living dead and genetic mutations. As BJ Blazkowicz, an army ranger recruited into the Office of Secret Actions (OSA), players infiltrate deep into the twisted bowels of the Third Reich to battle the unearthly super-soldiers, zombies and mutants forged in the experiments of Heinrich Himmler. With both two player co-op and full Xbox Live and System Link multi-player support for the ultimate in team warfare, Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War delivers a frightening and action-packed adventure teeming with shocking paranormal experiments, perverted, flesh-chewing SS weaponry and bone-chilling encounters with the Fuhrer's unrelenting henchmen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun FPS with Xbox Live, 18 May 2003
By A Customer
This game is one of the best FPS on the Xbox along with Halo and Medal of Honour.

Aiming sensitivity can be adjusted which is great and makes aiming as easy as on MoH. Graphics are better than MoH but nothing compared to Halo.

This is fast-paced game with plenty of blasting enemies (especially when you get the machine gun).

And with Xbox Live the replay value is high, with 16-player deathmatches and the ability to play through the entire game with a friend across Xbox Live.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth it for LIVE, 1 Sep 2003
I bought this and the Live kit at the same time, but for a couple of days I had it without Live. I was quite disappointed with the 1 player game, but by no means was it terrible. I trundled through the first chapter or so, and then....Live was working :)
Slightly tainted by my experiences with the one player game, I was still excited as hell. And once you've played this on Live, you may never sleep again. I haven't played the 1 player game since, the live experience is incredibly fufilling. I don't talk on it much, the Americans and French people intimidate me :P but since every game is completely different it really is great. It also seems that the developers are actively involved with it after release 2, with 3 new levels being offered through Content Download. 2 of which are really good (and for some reason no-one ever plays Barn).
You're never without a game to play, and you can of course start your own game, and try get a place on the hosting leaderboard. Even behind a router with 4 PCs on it I could comfortably host a 6 player game.
Lag is enevitable, and is really a fault of the players, not the game. It only takes one person to join the game with an extremely slow connection being shared with another million computers, behind a firewall and 18 routers to destroy the game for everyone, but they do get disconnected after a wee while if they're causing it. I feel sorry for those who can never get in a game - after all they splashed out on all this stuff for nothing, but maybe they should 'optimise' their connection. Lag isn't that bad, perhaps 1 in 10 games is laggy.

3.0 out of 5 stars No Live - No fun, 15 Oct 2003
By A Customer
apparentley this game is amazing live. however for us poor souls who don't have broadband this game is average.
Graphics - average
gameplay - good but repetative i.e shooting people
Lifespan - good as long as you don't get stuck like I have
Sound - good
Multplayer - you can't save. what more can I say?

You're MUCH better off getting Halo or/and Freedom Fighters.
