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.

    Red Dead Redemption 2.

    OK hear me out.

    Sure the game’s setting predates the Nazis and there are none to kill in the game. However, there is an entire inexhaustible faction of Confederates to murder. But even better than that, the game gives you several opportunities to stumble on a Klan meeting.

    These encounters are special because they’re a sandbox for creative butchery and guiltless massacre. Even the game’s honor system looks the other way while you toss a gallon of liquor onto the burning cross, dousing the Grand Dragon and all his Cyclopses, sending them in a screeching panic, fully engulfed, off a nearby cliff just like that dude in Lord of the Rings.

      Evey time I run into the RDR2 version of the KKK (Lemoyne Raiders?) I get so giddy and happy that I get the opportunity to find a new, creative, fun way to kill them all.

      Probably favorite is to hogtie the ones I can keep alive, toss all the live and dead ones into a single pile, then light it on fire

        Lemoyne Raiders aren’t the Klan. There’s actual klansmen too. You have to find them at night in the woods near Lemoyne, but they’re never associated with the raiders.

      In my mind the RTS genre hit major twin peaks with SupCom and CoH1. SupCom is the best of its subgenre (massive rts? actually the recent and free Zero-K hits real good in this genre too!) CoH 1 is the top of the Dawn of War family of more tactical RTS.

      I haven’t played in a long time, but I recall the story being good. The mechanics though were just so top notch! Great squad controls, not too much micro, vehicles feel really impactful, the nature of control point capture means every skirmish is very dynamic. Ah, what a classic!

    The Sniper Elite series is basically nazi-killing porn. Those won’t let you down, especially if you enjoy unplanned testicular detonations happening to nazis of any kind.

      The new entry in the series drops today, my nerd herd plans on doing the co-op campaign this weekend. I played SE4 and had a blast mixing WWII with the stealth aspects of Assassins Creed (the old ones where Ubisoft wasn’t just phoning it in).

    Commandos!

    The one by Eidos, where there are “vision triangles” and you have to slowly take out a whole ton of nazis before terminating your objectives in each level.

    My favourite is the Beyond the call of duty one.

    Since the Wolfenstein games were already mentioned: The Saboteur

    It aged quite a bit, but there are some nice mods to make it look and handle a bit better on Nexus Mods.

    The first BloodRayne game (after the intro level, which is plain bad and almost nazi-free) sees a lot of bitten, shot, dismembered, burned, possessed and exploded nazis.

    Honestly the gameplay is a bit clunky even for its time, but if what you need is dead nazis then it very firmly ticks the box.

    Also remastered: BloodRayne: Terminal Cut

    Bionic Commando

    It’s about an army of neo-nazis trying to resurrect Hitler

    It’s a platformer but you can’t jump in it, only use a grappling hook

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Wolfenstein (2009) for FPS.

    Otherwise Company of Heroes (any of the three).
    Exploding Nazis is just so much fun :D
