I just realized that we might get Wolfenstein 2009 back on steam because Microsoft now owns id, bethesda, activision, raven software and there are no more disputes over property

If it ever really were that simple.
God knows there's some obscure ass license holding that up.
Jonathan Diaz
there shouldn't be any
it's id/bethesda property, made by raven, published by activision
all owned by microsoft
Daniel Young
Doesn’t the story go we could have had it the whole time but MachineGames didn’t want it rereleased b/c MUH VISION?
Leo Smith
they are just devs, they can't make decisions like that. if that was somehow true that would mean you wouldn't be able to buy RTCW, a game that wolf 2009 is a sequel to
Caleb Adams
This plus Hexen 2: Portal of Praevus and Heretic 2.
Liam Taylor
daaaaaaamn nigga you're right
let's hope they care
Evan Sanchez
don't care unless they fix high fps (idtech 4 was so shit god)
Blake White
I only want the source code.
Bentley Powell
I love Raven so much bros. Too bad only shit they do is CoD stuff nowadays... their catalogue of games is amazing

1) It was already on Steam at one point but presumably got taken down for licensing reasons.
2) MachineGames specifically pulled characters/concepts from Wolf 09 for use in their own game, and view it as the second entry in the "Deathshead trilogy" anyway. There'd be no reason for them to hold some kind of vendetta against it.

They just said they didn't like BJ's Nathan Drake characterization in it. They absolutely do not have the power to make that kind of decision and you're absolutely deranged for trying to make up this kind of conspiracy.
It's a fucking Activision game, that's why we never saw it after they sold the IP. Zenimax/Bethesda could've made a deal for it but nobody thought it was worth it because it's the most 7/10 game in an era of 7/10 games.
It's like saying IO doesn't want any James Bond games released because it'll interfere with their 007 Project, and not that every single James Bond game comes down to agreements between Danjaq(the holder of overall franchise rights) and the specific publishers, which includes EA and Activision, as well as the clusterfuck that is Goldeneye.
Evan Torres
No idea. We do know, however, that Activision does not own the rights to it.

We are going home, 2009 bros:
Nolan Sanders
It was better than any of the new wolfenstein games.
Change my mind
Connor Anderson
The best ones are RtCW, 2009, and The Old Blood.
Christian Howard
Agreed
TNO had very bland enviorments and wolf3D aged like milk
The only blemish on the old blood is that horrendous forced stealth section at the beggining
Brayden Long
There were never any disputes (every other Wolfenstein is on Steam) They just don’t remember it existing. Great game though.
Isaac Peterson
>wolfenstein 2009 is re-released
>nobody buys it because it was a shit game
Grayson Baker
This is the actual reason.
Cooper Perry
>wolfenstein 2009 is re-released
All that matters.
Adam Davis
Yeah but when do we get AVP2?
