John Carmack Looks Back On Wolfenstein 3D In This Commentary Video

[Shogun Gamer]

There’s a generation of gamers out there who may have never heard or played a Wolfenstein game and that makes me feel quite old and depressed.  It’s fine for gamers to have Call of Duty as their #1 FPS game, but it’s always good to look back at what helped the FPS genre as things likely wouldn’t be where they are now if the team at id Software never created Wolfenstein in the first place.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Wolfenstein series, id Software co-founder/current tech wiz John Carmack decided to do something special. No, he didn’t create a rocketship adorned with Wolfenstein signage since he has the money and knowledge to do such a thing, but he instead decided to do a special audio commentary of Wolfenstein 3D.  John Carmack may do a fair bit of public speaking here and there, most of the time involving tech talk that goes over our heads, but rarely does he ever talk in-depth about a previous game he worked on, let alone one that’s older than most gamers today.  …

To check out John’s commentary on Wolfenstein 3D just watch the video below and skip to the 9 minute mark if you want to go straight to the commentary.
