RTCW Single Player Demo & Linux Binaries

Posted by michael on from the into-the-outdoors-with-penguin-and-chaingun dept.

Ant was fastest on the mouse to report that Id Software has a single-player demo and a set of linux binaries available for Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Blue's News has some more information and a mirror.

    Different classes in multiplayer. Grenades. Interactive turrets you can use. Ladders. Water effects. Walls and buildings that can explode, break, etc. The flame thrower (already being talked about as revolutionary).

    Of course its still point and shoot! It's an FPS, sheesh! What exactly are you looking for? The smug feeling of knowing CW won't change our most basic perceptions of the world we live in? :) CW is quite simply one of the best single-player (according to reviews, community) FPS games in awhile. Couple this with the fact that the Lords of FPS (ID software) helped them with development and gave it their blessing, and you have a game that may not be mindshattering, but is supposedly top-rate entertainment for FPS fans.
