Wolf3D
(aka Castle Wolfenstein 3D)
(ID/Apogee, 1992)
 A breakthrough in
virtual reality gameplay, this game put you in an environment
that was fluid 3D; the first game to ever give such an accurate
feel of its environment. You had a full, 360 degree view of your
world, in real time, and could turn to any angle, going essentially
anywhere you wished, at will. While there were no staircases,
nor any action above or below you, this was still an amazing
feat at the time. The masterminds at ID were even able to do
all this regardless of low CPU speed at the time; an added impressive
feat. The action-savvy storyline, of a lone U.S. soldier behind
enemy Nazi likes in WW2, was equally intriguing and entertaining.
By game's end, you even got to defeat Hitler himself, in all
his glory! Cool...so cool, in fact, this game is in Techtite's
list of Top 50 Best Multimedia
Classics. Deservedly so; while ID would tweak this exact
same game engine for several more years, this was the original,
unique concept that inspired them all.
