IGN have undertaken the mammoth task of compiling the Top 100 First Person Shooters of all time from all of the shooters released in the past 20 or so years. It’s great to see Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory make the list a full decade after its release, deploying in the #84 spot.

Back in the dark age of the FPS, multiplayer was nothing but a bunch of people running in every direction at once with their triggers held down like savages. Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory wasn't the first game to feature objective-focused, class-based competitive play, but its free, open-sourced nature exposed a massive amount of new players to the concept, opening the door for what eventually grow into a much larger trend in multiplayer design.

As a reboot of the franchise that started the genre, Return to Castle Wolfenstein had a lot to live up to. And though it didn't constitute the wheel re-inventing some had hoped it would be, it was still an excellent take on the space between fighting soldiers and fighting hellspawn. In many ways it was just a natural extension of Wolfenstein 3D's controversial final boss, taking historical myths about the Nazis dabbling in the occult and swinging for the fences with them. But it would be the multiplayer that would be remembered most fondly, keeping scads of frag-heads tethered to their gaming rigs until the wee hours for months and years to come.

The great-granddaddy of first-person shooters, Wolfenstein 3D launched the genre we take for granted today. It was inspired by Castle Wolfenstein and its sequel, a pair of relatively crude 2D stealth shooters that pit you against Nazi guards. The metamorphosis into 3D (well, pseudo 3D) was like sorcery in 1992. Gone were the stealth elements; the golden age of run-and-gun shooters erupted with the roar of a chaingun as you blasted through three glorious episodes filled with Nazis and even Adolf Hitler himself as a boss. Id's breakout achievement directly (and indirectly) gave birth to Doom, Rise of the Triad, and every other shooter that followed.

Congratulations! - 10 years Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory! Splash Damage's first game - Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory - was released exactly TEN YEARS ago.

Splash Damage's Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was born on 29/05/2003. The game was originally planned as a buyable addon for Return to Castle Wolfenstein, but the singleplayer was not ready in time. Thus, the community one of the best free multiplayer first person shooter of all time received, which still has many active players from around the world.
Despite its age, the game Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory is still in the top 10 of the most popular game downloads.

We wish all fanboys and newcomers continue to enjoy, with this "young at heart" teamplay shooter.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch! - 10 Jahre Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory! Splash Damage 's erstes Spiel - Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory - wurde genau vor ZEHN JAHREN freigegeben.

Am 29.05.2003 wurde Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory von Splash Damage geboren. Zuerst war das Spiel als kostenpflichtiges Addon zu Return to Castle Wolfenstein geplant,  doch der Singleplayer wurde nicht rechtzeitig fertig. Dadurch hat die Community eines der Besten kostenlosen Multiplayer-Egoshooter aller Zeiten erhalten, welcher auch heute noch viele aktive Spieler aus aller Welt hat.
Trotz des hohen Alters, gehört das Spiel Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory immer noch zu den 10 beliebtesten Game-Downloads.

Wir wünschen allen Fanboys und Neulingen weiterhin viel Spass, mit diesem "jungebliebenen" Teamplay-Shooter.

TZAC news by chaplja - Quote: Alright people, it's time to end this drama, TZAC will stay online and it'll be free.
Thanks to a member who's been supporting TZAC for a long time, peaches, TZAC will stay online and it'll be free to use.
However, during next few months I will be working on ways to monetize TZAC while keeping it generally free to use. The plan is to introduce low-cost premium accounts which would give some additional features (but TZAC would function normally even if you don't pay), perhaps own clan/match system on the site including tournaments, etc.

TZAC News von chaplja - Zitat: Gute Nachrichten - TZAC bleibt online! Okay Leute, es ist Zeit, dieses News-Drama zu beenden, TZAC wird weiterhin online und kostenlos bleiben.
Jedoch werde ich in den nächsten paar Monaten Wege erarbeiten, um ein TZAC Zahlungssystem zu entwickeln. Der Plan ist einer Art Premium-Account für wenig Geld, welcher zusätzliche Funktionen beinhaltet. (Evtl. mit einem eigenen Clan / Match-System auf der Website, einschließlich Turniere, etc.) Die normale TZAC-Funktion wird weiterhin kostenlos bleiben.
