Squad-based combat. Great graphics. Solid controls and gameplay. Authentic WW2 experience. Spectacular sound effects. Destructible cover.
Weak multiplayer. Occasional issues when moving squad. Squad members cannot be healed.

Georgie StuhfBrothers in Arms takes the first person shooter genre and attempts to make it more of a thinking persons game, giving not only a slower, more realistic pace to the combat but bringing in an over-arching storyline, to try and make you c...

What’s the best way to make a gamer cry? Ubisoft appears to believe that it’s by throwing a few too many cutscenes your way, each attempting to ape the emotive camaraderie captured so movingly in films like Saving Private Ryan, or series such as Band...

Let me begin by saying that this is the first Brothers in Arms game I have ever played. I am aware of other console releases but it did seem odd to me that this franchise with its strong PC following would also be made as a console game. If you’re look...

Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway has been in production for so long I can’t remember which E3 it was when I saw my first demonstration. Then we had the developers’ diary and teaser movies. By the time the game actually arrived I was able to delete sev...

Despite what videogames have told us in the past, World War II wasn't won with a bolt action rifle wielded by an invincible Hollywood action hero - obviously, it was a conflict lost by many. Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway is relentless in emphasizing...
Gripping Story; disturbing authenticity; awesome audiovisuals.
Insipid, busted multiplayer.

On the surface the visuals in Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway are solid and for many the graphics will be the best aspect of the game. The production value is high as the game has a Hollywood blockbuster feel to it. Some of the detail in the game’s cut...

Great storytelling aside, Hell’s Highway is an utterly gripping and action-packed jaunt into the hellish frontlines that might not be executed as well as it should be but is still worthy of playing. Its glitches and somewhat unspectacular visuals actua...

The opening sequence showed that Gearbox really is trying to tell a story with a rousing soundtrack and some more than adequate CGI cutscenes helping the plot unravel. However, the most important part of telling a story isnt the graphics or the music...

Story relies too much on knowledge of past games, Texture irregularities can sour cutscenes.

When it comes to first-person shooters set in World War II, Gearbox Studios Brothers in Arms series always seems overlooked. This may be due to the fact that the latest Call of Duty or Medal of Honor entry is always met with greater fanfare, although...
New cover system works well; impressive environments; strategic elements are still a lot of fun; engaging story.
AI can be wonky at times; tank missions feel tacked-on; multiplayer is disappointing; story could be confusing to new players.

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. Or gore...
