The credits have rolled on Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. Is it a good video game? Well, that depends. If you are 100% pro-Wolfenstein, then sure.

Video games are announced early for many reasons, but despite how valid those reasons are it’s sometimes hard for us gamers to appreciate how important early announcements are. Games cost a lot of money to make. And early announcements are largely based on the need for pre-orders.
