This month is the 20th Anniversary of Wolfenstein 3D. To celebrate id Software and Bethesda have given us all a free browser-based version of its seminal shooter. John Carmack has also given a director's commentary, full of the usual fascinating Carmackchat. You can play the snazzy HTML 5 version of Wolf 3D if you're browsing in Firefox 10, Chrome 16, Internet Explorer 9, Safari 5, or newer. Fingers crossed that your work computer is updated vaguely frequently. id Software got distracted by Doom and Quake after the release of a Wolf 3D prequel, but the series returned in 2001 with Return to Castle Wolfenstein from Grey Matter and Nerve Software. Splash Damage followed this with the superb free multiplayer spin-off Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, then the last entry in the series was Raven's Wolfenstein in 2009. The iOS version is also going temporarily free in the App Store some time later today. Here is the Link

It sounded precisely like it does in the video clip (skip halfway through it to hear the gameplay sounds).

I don't have a HTML5 compatible web browser so I can't compare it with the web version.

Ah, brings back memories! I grew up with this game. Weeee!

Too bad the browser version is a major glitch & lag -fest.
Graphics corruptions all over. Frame-lag is hardly bearable on most situations. And when going full auto with either the 3rd or 4th gun puts the game into a friggin' halt. :shadedshu
I bet I am probably the only person with such problems. *sigh*

I think I'm gonna have to buy a GTX 690 if I wanna max-up quality settings on this game :roll:

I remember those days, most of the graphics were software rendered and you enjoyed the games, now you have to spend hundreds of dollars just to barely make 30 fps on a console port :pimp:

CD? What is this, 1998? Man, my dad had it on floppies - and even though I haven't played since I was 6, I still knew where the first two secrets were!

Interesting that Steam currently has an offer on the game, presumably to compete with the "free browser-based version".

It's been something like 20 years since I've played this last time but I still recall almost all secret rooms as I play.

Browser version seem a little buggy, though.
