The FPS genre may be the most competitive in gaming today, which means if you come up even a little short, you will pale in comparison. This is what happened with Ubisoft's latest installment in the

great game

It took them quite a while, but Gearbox Software was finally able to finish the long-delayed Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway . Announced many years ago for last generation consoles, Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway is making its first debut on next gen (now gen?

There's something peculiarly puzzling about gore in video games. Like chocolates in a box of Roses it can come in so many types. Gore can be completely stylised and over the top, like in upcoming black and white Wii game Mad World, for example.

If I had to pick the shining star of BIA outside of the story, though, it would be the sound effects and dialogue. The dialogue, which includes shout outs from your squad during the heat of battle, is strong.

Amazing storyline; Solid cover system; Pretty particle effects

Inconsistent AI; Lack of visual polish; Lame online play

The body count of Hitler's misguided military ambitions and the resulting global retaliation is estimated to be around 50 to 70 million. After playing the hundreds of WWII shooters publishers shoved down our throats over the last 10 years, I've taken down nearly as many Nazis.

This is a great game with à good tactic spirit. It remains me the famous Hidden And Dangerous 2, even if it's not the same kind of game and even if the tactic is not as much thrust as H&D II.

For anybody not familiar with Brothers In Arms, they are a series of WW2 first person shooters that aim to depictthe reality of war. Where Call of Duty succeeded in providing spectacular set pieces Brothers In Arms asks more than simply working your way down a predetermined path.

Good compelling story; loyal to historical setting; sound

Graphical finish is poor; boring  gameplay; questionable AI

If you are like me and you think shooters have too less strategy and strategy games have too less action then this game is the perfect solution for your problem. The game is not meant for everybody though and most people are sick of the Second World War by now, so this game is a little late.

The game takes place in the Second World War and it focuses on Market Garden; I haven't seen a game take place in the Kingdom of the Netherlands before (aside from a few missions in Medal of Honor: Front line) and I just love it.

There are quite a lot of glitches and that can prove to be very annoying; Quite often I would lose entire squads because they decided to hide at the wrong side of a wall or stop moving while we were dodging machine gun fire

This game plays very differently from the COD series and is a solid and tactical game which requires you to strategize your combat movements. In this game, you are not supposed to rush into fierce firefights all the time without learning the consequences and instead, should be planning your approach...
