The only good nazi is a dead nazi. What games are the best for taking them out?

India Jones and the Great Circle was a good start, and I'm considering Sniper Elite VR for the highly detailed nazi carnage. Wondering what other nazi-killing favorites are out there.

I don't know if anything really tops Wolfenstein TNO. Right from the get-go you're running through a trench dual-wielding machine guns and just shredding Nazis like you're mowing grass. Plus you can personally stomp Hitler's face in! 10/10 experience.

The New Colossus was released during Trump’s first term and it was really cathartic to play during the shit storm. The game even pissed off the “alt-right.” The New Order and The Old Blood are much better at “endless destruction of Nazis” though.

Might be time to reinstall and play through them again.

arma3 has some really good hyper realistic dynamic campaigns with high replay value, for endless nazi killing fun.

I came here exclusively to reiterate.

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

I enjoyed return to castle Wolfenstein when it came out and competitively played Enemy Territory for years and even made a mod for it. I have no idea how it would hold up today, however

You know Call of Duty started out as killing nazis on the Quake engine. I don't remember really liking them but it's there

In Command and Conquer: Red Alert and it's sequel all the nazis have already been erased from history by Albert Einstein's time machine...

But the USSR in the games conquered Europe and is cartoonishly evil so they're fun to fight.

Also they corrupted Tim Curry in RA3 so they deserve it.

Sniper Elite lol! Love that damn game. Someone out there had the job programmin nazi-nutsacks, and they took their job serious. Such loving attention to destructive detail. i never once got tired of explodin them in slow motion from 500 yards. What a hero

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Something about slow mo shooting hitlers one testicle with xray vision with a sniper rifle just makes the day seem brighter.

[–] B312@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Helldivers but only when you kill teammates

[–] Alfredolin@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 days ago

... which is completely normal and tolerated.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

Well, Machine Games other recent titles are pretty good in that regard, and every other regard.

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Metal Gear Solid 3. Close enough right?

This is an old game series, but it was proof that you could put as much blood and gore into a game as you wanted and still get a Teen rating in the US, as long as you're just killing/dismembering Nazis.

BloodRayne. There's a "cheat" to change a few of the visual effects. One makes her put all her weapons where she is actually storing them, and shows the unused weapons at all times. One makes the blood spray levels "more accurate to the actual amount of blood in the human body. The last one just makes her boobs bouncier.

You didn't mention what platform but all of the Sniper Elite games are on Gamepass including the literally just released Resistance.

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Battlefield 1942, especially with the Battlegroup 42 mod.
