The most anticipated first person shooter of 2001 was finally released to stores by publisher Activision in the US yesterday, and now players are getting reacquainted with Sgt. B. J. Blazkowicz in Return to Castle Wolfenstein. The long awaited sequel to Wolfenstein 3D (considered by many to be the first ever first person shooter title) from developers id Software, Gray Matter Studios, and Nerve Software is already getting a lot of positive first impressions.
