I prefer Blake Stone's storyline over Wolfenstein's, because I like science-fiction anytime, over warped history. At least I was until Medal of Honor made everyone think that whoring it out in new installations twice a year was a good idea. I wouldn't pay more than 10 dollars for Blakestone at this point, but it's still a fun game in a nostalgic sense, although I think Wolfenstein was the better of the two, but I'm a sucker for things WWII related. I've never played Planet Strike though, so I can't say much about it. I've tried playing it a few times since then, but of course every time I spend an hour trying to get the floppies to work to no avail. Plus all the secret areas made it pretty fun. Still, interactive health dispensers, interactive scientists, and enemies that get up after you thought you killed them. Fun game, although the whole "you only get 4 weapons" thing annoyed me about both of those games. Eventually I ended up getting the full Blakestone for christmas a year or two later, played through all of it. It was probably around 94 or 95, my friend had a shareware disk with both of them on it and let me borrow it. It, along with Wolfenstein 3D were the first first person shooters I ever played. Ah Blakestone, I have some fond memories of that game.
