PSN, XBLA: Wolfenstein 3D Coming To XBLA And PSN
Through all the frantic news of the Game Developer's Conference, the ESRB got the chance to slide out a little update to their rating lists. In said list - Wolfenstein 3D for the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network
With the new Wolfenstein game coming to consoles at the end of the year, it's not much of a surprise to see the original game come out as well, but since we've already had DOOM on the system, Wolfenstein 3D may be a little too ancient. If they add Spear Of Destiny we might be onto something.
With the game just released on iPhone, and available right now and playable on anything on Steam, a XBLA and PSN version might be a bit of a waste. Wouldn't it be hilarious if they completely remade Wolfenstein with new graphics though? That'd be something to see.
But come on Activision and id Software, sure you're releasing Quake Arena sometime this year, but where are Doom II, Quake, Quake II and the Commander Keen collection? That's what we really want to see on XBLA and PSN. Get to it!

Yeah, those would be great! Wolf 3D, though... meh. Too ancient by far. Doom was where the magic truly began.

Because wolf3d was the first fps for me. It will always have this special meaning :)

Quake 2 came with Quake 4 so I doubt it.

The instant I saw screenshots for the new Wolfenstein I thought "I wonder how long it'll be before we get an XBLA release of the original?".
