You’ve endured Grandpa’s endless tales of the shell shock, trench foot, and C rations he suffered during the Big One, so now’s your chance to fire back with some Europe-liberating yarns of your own. We bet Gramps never blasted his way through intricate Nazi laboratories to foil Hitler’s plans for a race of inhuman supersoldiers. The latest installment in the guts-and-guten tag epic places you (as U.S. Ranger B.J. Blazkowicz) deep inside Germany as the last stand against the SS’ twisted occult shenanigans. Playing alone or with online teams (Xbox Live hooks you up), you clean kraut house with sniper rifles, machine guns, and rocket launchers. Not so talkative now, are ya, old-timer?
