[drupal=752]Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory Invades PC Gamer’s Top 100 (Updated)[/drupal]

Gracing the March issue of PC Gamer US is the latest version of their Top 100 Games of All Time, listing, much as one would expect, the 100 best games of all time (as chosen by PC Gamer). Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory is once again present and accounted for, calling in air strikes and constructing barricades in the #55 spot. Not only does that mean that Wolf managed to hold its own very nearly almost 8 full years after its release, but it’s actually moved up an impressive 15 places since the UK version of the same list came out last year. Wunderbar!
Update: The full top 100 is now available online via PC Gamer’s swish website. Here’s what they had to say about Wolf: ET:
<blockquote>
Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was never about the shooting. I played the medic class like a guardian angel, skipping through rivulets of bullets to reach shot-up team-mates and nurse them back to health. These days, clever team play is as important to online FPSes as lethal mouse-skills

my fav quote from that list

“Tim S: Arma 2 lets you mount a .50 cal tripod MG on the back of a cow then ride into battle. That’s really all you need to know.”

See, it’s not dead! Long live ET!

That’s awesome, good to see it moving up too. More people are catching on that it’s massively better than those horrid CoD games.

Hooray for ET! Personally, I would have marked it a little higher just based on the countless hours of my life lost in it.

Same goes for RtCW actually… the game that got me into online FPS’s (well, that and a cable connection)… Kind of sad to not see RtCW based on it’s multiplayer alone but, I’m likely biased.

I’ve forgotten to mention that Quake 3 and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory are the only two games for which the source code of the game AND the engine are open source.
