The only good nazi is a dead nazi. What games are the best for taking them out?
India Jones and the Great Circle was a good start, and I’m considering Sniper Elite VR for the highly detailed nazi carnage. Wondering what other nazi-killing favorites are out there.
Gonna stray a bit from the other games mentioned here for the sake of adding something unique.
It’s not your traditional nazis per say, but the half life series fits quite nicely with this urge. The combine are genocidal, totalitarian, they use shit loads of propaganda, etc. They don’t have the looks of it, but they’re clearly the nazi type.
Wolf3D straight up
The Commandos saga. Specially the first one (Behind Enemy Lines).
Wolfenstien
The New Order was mind-blowing when I first played it
Honestly still is. Best FPS since HL2. Love the cutting tool.
Loved both of the newer ones. Great story and Nazi killing
+1 for both new wolfensteins. so rare for both the action and the story in a game to be top notch
all 3 of em!
Wolfenstein 2009 is underrated
Even setting aside all of the gore and cruel executions, BJ’s growling inner commentary is a great mood-setter for that game.
Oh, the two-pack on PSN is only $7.50 right now. I think I’ll pick it up.
Noice! Ya know I’ve never actually played Wolfenstein haha. But I want to!
They’re good games.
I grow fat on all those chicken dinners on the original.
Red Dead Redemption 2.
OK hear me out.
Sure the game’s setting predates the Nazis and there are none to kill in the game. However, there is an entire inexhaustible faction of Confederates to murder. But even better than that, the game gives you several opportunities to stumble on a Klan meeting.
These encounters are special because they’re a sandbox for creative butchery and guiltless massacre. Even the game’s honor system looks the other way while you toss a gallon of liquor onto the burning cross, dousing the Grand Dragon and all his Cyclopses, sending them in a screeching panic, fully engulfed, off a nearby cliff just like that dude in Lord of the Rings.
Also, if you just watch them they accidentally light themselves on fire.
It also has that one dude on the street in saint denis who
minor side character spoiler
is pushing his eugenics book.
I save my molotovs for that guy and his books
Evey time I run into the RDR2 version of the KKK (Lemoyne Raiders?) I get so giddy and happy that I get the opportunity to find a new, creative, fun way to kill them all.
Probably favorite is to hogtie the ones I can keep alive, toss all the live and dead ones into a single pile, then light it on fire
Lemoyne Raiders aren’t the Klan. There’s actual klansmen too. You have to find them at night in the woods near Lemoyne, but they’re never associated with the raiders.
The Sniper Elite series is basically nazi-killing porn. Those won’t let you down, especially if you enjoy unplanned testicular detonations happening to nazis of any kind.
I personally enjoy the PLANNED testicular detonations a lot more!
The new entry in the series drops today, my nerd herd plans on doing the co-op campaign this weekend. I played SE4 and had a blast mixing WWII with the stealth aspects of Assassins Creed (the old ones where Ubisoft wasn’t just phoning it in).
Since the Wolfenstein games were already mentioned: The Saboteur
It aged quite a bit, but there are some nice mods to make it look and handle a bit better on Nexus Mods.
I enjoyed The Saboteur.
That game was so cool!
I’m still sad about Pandemic Studios getting shut down by EA.
Wolfenstein. Any one of them. There has never been a bad Wolfenstein game.
There has never been a bad Wolfenstein game.
“Hell Yeah, Dude” the game would like a word with you.
Well Wolfenstein: The New Order is the other classic to do just that!
Commandos!
The one by Eidos, where there are “vision triangles” and you have to slowly take out a whole ton of nazis before terminating your objectives in each level.
My favourite is the Beyond the call of duty one.
Bear trap on their path, run back to cover.
ALARM! ALARM!
HASTER LISTER! (or what the f they’re saying)
The first BloodRayne game (after the intro level, which is plain bad and almost nazi-free) sees a lot of bitten, shot, dismembered, burned, possessed and exploded nazis.
Honestly the gameplay is a bit clunky even for its time, but if what you need is dead nazis then it very firmly ticks the box.
Also remastered: BloodRayne: Terminal Cut
Blow out Hitlers ball in Sniper Elite. Can’t get better than that really. Or can you?
Can you shoot the other one too? Y’know, the one that’s in the Albert Hall
Brutal Wolfenstein is a great mod for GZDoom (and free with freedoom). Imagine the original wolfenstein but you get to stain the walls with the blood of nazis. The difficulty is significantly increased, weapons hit harder, and everything is better.
The original monochromatic Castle Wolfenstein, blowing up Hitler with my buddy and his grandfather who lost family in the camps in Poland will always be a fun memory.
