Brothers in Arms
Anyone else interested in this game?
I was kind of bummed that Call of Duty: Finest Hour didn't end up being as great as it could have been (the PC game is one of the best WWII FPSs ever made IMO), but BiA looks really good.
It tells the story of the 181st Airborne (at least I THINK it's the 181st) and their drop into Normandy. There's the usual immersive WWII FPS atmosphere and hectic combat, but you also have the ability to command your squad, ala Rainbow Six 3 or Ghost Recon. And there's a heavy emphasis on historical accuracy.
Anyway, I think it looks great, and the online play should be really awesome, as each player gets their own squad.
ins to the omnia. sleep is for the weak.
