After scouring the GameFAQs message boards, this 'specific' search seems to grind down the waiting times to about 15 to 20 seconds. So in other words, you better know exactly what you want to play before you go looking for it, otherwise you may be waiting a while.

About the only true sweet thing in the game is the sound, but even that has some issues. You can hear people tip toeing on cat walks, death screams from other rooms, and more. However, those with the 5.1 Surround Sound will hear some very odd occurrences. Reports are already coming in about people shooting someone/thing in front of them, but the sound effects sound as if they were coming from behind the player

That about sums up the game; it's got great potential, even high expectations, and in every department there is some glaring detail that cannot be overlooked. Had there been just a little more time spent with it, tweaking the small things here and there, it could have been a surefire hit. As it stands, this is one soldier of misfortune

It's time to Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
