Brothers in Arms: H#ll's Highway (1 Viewer)

On the last level of this game. What can I say...IT IS AWESOME. For those who do not play xbox 360, the game follows the path of a staff sergeant in the 101st Airborne through Market Garden, with the story centered around his "cursed" silver pistol. The games scenery is oustanding, but the graphics on characters are very poor, they make up for this however with being able to command a squad and give differend commands and being able to shoot in 3rd person point of view. To any 360 players who have not played this, I heartily suggest! Also anyone played this besides me?

In many ways I like the Brothers in Arms series better then Call of Duty. I like setting the way points, putting surpressing fire down and flanking. Its more stragey and your in control. This was a great game, it just doesn't get as much attention as it should.

Yes, I also liked how you could destroy wooden fences with heavy suppressive fire! I just felt like everyone had laughed at the game mostly because of graphics, as my friends who were over the other day just made fun of it! I haven't gotten to the end yet, but if Baker survives, I want a sequel with the Battle of the Bulge! That would be awesome sort of like Band of Brothers and Battleground...

The graphics on the PC version are great. This is a really overlooked game, the only WW2 FPS I know of where you have a full 10 men squad. Oh, and the ending is the best ever seen for an FPS, let me know what you think when you beat it.

I think it's more realistic than COD although the graphics aren't as good. It's not an easy game though, not just a shoot 'em up.

Well said! It really isn't a shoot 'em up like COD. I find the suppressive fire of the Germans very hard to advance under, and when one the members of the squad is hit, they stay hit, and don't return till the next checkpoint, not like COD were you have an unlimited amount of AI friendlies for cannon fodder! I only wish the Germans would throw grenades...

It was even harder in the past two BiA games, when one of your squadmates got killed, he stayed dead for the entire level, not just until the next checkpoint. A single enemy mortar attack could decimate your squad and make it very difficult to complete the level.

Just beat it, all I can say is, WOW!!!! I know this might sound a bit odd and all but I almost shed a tear at the end with the scene with Red and Baker and then again when Baker talks with the whole platoon! 10 stars hands down! I really hope they make a sequel about the Battle of Bulge! Will patiently wait for the sequel!

You know the way the ending went a Battle of the Bulge sequel has to be in the works.

Huzzah! Then they have to make a sequel about the end of the war with Berchtesgaden and drinking Goring's champagne!
