Activision's latest attempt at re-igniting the public's fascination with the Nazi occult will be put to the test this August, with the release of Raven's Wolfenstein title for the 360, PS3 and PC.

The game will be out on August 4, and while we wish it the best of luck, can't help but yearn for a time when the franchise was a little bolder, a little brighter with its colour palette (especially on mechanised Adolf Hitlers).
