Graphics-87/Sound-87/Controls-85/Blast Force-85/Overall-86 In the year 2011, Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War doesn't stand as one of the best, but is still a great game nonetheless, and is worth adding to anyone's classic shooter collection. Make no mistake; it's far better than the PS2 port, but every category is above average with nothing spectacular or ground-breaking that can be noticed. The graphics move very fluidly, but with crummy art direction and the same bland id Software color palette from that era, it's simply unremarkable beyond the frame rate and level design. The sounds too feature some nifty weapon effects and humorous Nazi dialogue as well as an entertaining score, but is marred by muffled explosions and energy effects. In short, the sound lacks overall pop. The controls are dated, but of course handle well on a Controller S. In the end, this gem is a blast to play a time or two, but may not have the replay value or overall polish to stand the test of time. Maybe that's why it's value has diminished over the years...but it's definitely worth picking up for under $10!Read full review
Great game. Used to the PS2 version where the graphics are better, but for a 90% identical port to the Xbox, that i can play on my 360, im appreciative. This is my all time favorite FPS.

This game is a must play for fans of the series and newcomers. The Xbox version is my favorite and has a co-operative mode, but the PS2 version is pretty much the same but with some differences, mainly it doesn't have multiplayer. The PC version doesn't have the missions set in Africa, and to me, without those levels, the game feels a lot shorter.
