Looks like the cats outta the bag. Generations closing, BJ sketch that id doesn't want posted, and now ex-Xatrix guys report that they will be working on Return to Castle Wolfenstein using the Quake 3 engine. I think we've been waiting for this news. =)

1) There's no "Castle Wolfenstein". It's Wolfenstein 3D. ARRRRRRGH!

2) This rumour has popped up in several forms over the last few years, any time any new engine turns up. I know of no plans for this being done (even in secret that i'm not allowed to talk about).

I know that. I was playing it probably before a lot of people in these forums could even walk! http://3drealms.3dportal.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif

Serously, it just bugs me that people call "Wolfenstein 3D" Castle Wolfenstein.

Um, so the new game can't be called Return to Castle Wolfenstein? It's the title I got off the news. That's 'reportedly' what Drew (what's his face at Xatrix) said. I didn't say Wolfenstein 3D's name was Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

And how do you know you were playing the Apple // games b4 I chould walk?

It's like this--B.J. could take Flynn Taggart, Skippy, and the Quake II Marine in a pinch. Maybe Duke--nah, they'd probably team up. Hey, wouldn't that be cool? Through some freak time portal, B.J. and Duke take on Hitler . . .

I don't know, though. The DooM guy's pretty tough. The Quake guys though--nah. They've never wasted Hitler or been to Hell and back.

UD has an idea for a TC that wouldn't be legal, ever: Duke and the DooM guy get together and waste aliens in Hell.

. . .

Nahhhh . . .

I wonder if they're going to have blue and red brick walls, and make the metal things aqua (and silver)? I guess it would just be a realistic type of game instead.

More news here: And BTW it looks like it is just a rumour and is not official.

Yeah, it's Pär Sundbäck.

Nope, Castle Wolfenstein is the very first and was made for the Apple //. There's Castle Wolfenstein and Beyond Castle Wolfenstein. Then Wolfenstein 3D and Spear of Destiny. And in Wolf3D your escape from 'Castle Wolfenstein'. Again I guess. Hehehehehe.

Also, these may be 100% rumors, or 100% true, I'll wait it out b4 I argue.

I did some checking on my own, and this statement appears to be correct.

What's correct? That it's a rumor OR that it's true?

As far as I'm conserned it's a rumor. id Software's next title might be a Telituby game or it can be a new Wolfenstein game. I'm not going to yell Wolf until id says there's a new Wolfenstein.

Now that I think about it I kinda did....

He said that the statement of it being a rumor and not official is correct.

So, it's a rumor.
