    Let's see:

    -Lots of Nazis (check)
    -Lots of blood (check)
    -Lots of bullets (check)
    -Lots of guns (check)
    -Lots of action (check)
    -Lots of overkill (check),

    My conclusion, sure fire hit :D ;)

    I loved RTCW. I hope this one at least has some story to it like that did.

    The New Colossus continues the story from TNO (Wolfenstein: The New Order). Great game and story btw, A lot Nazi/robot killing lol. The ending kinda sucks which why they decided to make another one to continue the story.

    I hope my laptop will be able to run this game

    Oh man, how I wish there was an actual single player DLC for Doom 2016...

    You haven't played Wolfenstein The New Order? It had plenty of story. And it was way way WAY better than the excuse of a story any spunkgargleweewee has these days.

    Visually this game looks like a massive upgrade over New Order/Old Blood, which didn't even have dynamic lighting or shadows and all the textures were blurry as hell.

    Looks like I have 12 hours in Wolfenstein New Order, so I guess I did. Just didn't leave much of an impact on me I guess.

    Single Player Doom DLC yes.. yes..

    But I thing Wolf 2 will suffice. It looks glorious.
