Wolfenstein 3D Redux: 19 Strong Years of Killing Hitler Good

Today is the 19th anniversary of the release of Wolfenstein 3D, a game which should be near and dear to the hearts of pretty much anyone who enjoys a good round of abusing Hitler. In celebration of this day, here's a video of a dude taking out Hitler and his minions with nothing but a pistol:

I Don't Quite Understand This

It's something to do with a video game of some sort. However, I am officially too old and out of the loop to truly understand it.

But, hey, I support all sorts of Hitler abuse, even the aftermath:





I found these during a random image search. They were created by someone calling him- (or her-) self "robonator."

NES DIY Action!

You know what? I used to hate the damn dog from Duck Hunt. Always laughing at my poor aim. But then...

HE TOTALLY COLD-COCKED HITLER!

Thanks to Still216 for another entry in his acclaimed (by me) series (do two entries count as a series? I think they do) of DIY NES art.

HULK EAT!

Anagrams love to punch Hitler!


This photoshop was made by someone with the screenname "guvnor" as part of a photoshop project of video game anagrams.

Ali sent me this. Thanks, hon.

I Would Prefer the Name "Destroy All Hitlers," But...

...I refuse to look a gift horse in the mouth.

Of course I have embedding difficulties at a time when I have been given a video link to the Greatest Idea For A Game In History. Please click and watch.

Go on. I'll wait.









That's Right: Hitlers Must Die.

Plural.

A multi-Hitler killing spree.

I have never felt more blessed.

Created by the team at Cryptic Sea, this game (which is part of a series of mash-up games called No Quarter) was originally described as "Mario + N + Wolfenstein." Which is, quite frankly, about as perfect a High Concept as has ever been made.

By the way, I'm thinking about starting a "Failed Video Embedding Week" now that I've run out of bayonet pics* (heavy sigh and a rolling of eyes).

Prolific blogger (and writer of excellent webcomics) Kevin Church tipped me off about this, which he discovered here. If you haven't checked out Kevin's numerous web ventures, you really should.

*Or at least, I have run out as of 8:25 AM on Thursday, May 21.

LET'S GET READY TO RUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMBLLLLLE!

Hitler. Jesus. Gandhi. Punching.



There's a lot of joy to be found here.

Thanks to The Alibear, who is going above and beyond the call of duty as a significant other, for sending me this. I'm stunned that she allows me to spend so much time hunting for Hitleriana, but to do so herself is pure love. The pure love of watching Hitler get punched. Mazel Tov, honey.

1st Person Stabber

Ah, what a blast from the past this is:

The real money shot starts around 15 seconds before the end, but there are plenty of Hitler-wizards and assorted Nazi soldiers to watch die before then.

I was never good enough to get this far, but I loved Wolfenstein 3D anyway. Any opportunity to shoot Nazis is a good opportunity.

The Trick is to Punch Him When He Opens His Mouth...

..that keeps the hate from spewing out.

"He hurt me, Doc."

"Adolf, Join the Nintendo Fun Club Today."

Thanks to Still216 for the highly sophisticated photoshop. It's seamless.

Indiana Jones Goes Out Doing What He Loves

First, perfunctories: I am Flex and I like seeing Hitler get punched even more than I like seeing Wolter get punched.

Second, Hitler Punching: It costs him, but Indiana Jones gets to do what we all love to see in classic video game style:
