Brothers in arms update  by Shane L at 18:38

PCXBoxPlaystation
Brothers in arms, just another WW2 game? maybe, Call of Duty has been there and done it, Medal of Honour has been there and done it.
So what has Brothers in arms got that the other haven't?
Well read on...

This game has been 3 years in the making, it has required teams of researchers sifting through nearly 100 crates in the National Historical Archive, so much attention to detail has gone into this game you would be forgiven for thinking this was a movie being made and not a game.

I found this article over on the IGN.com site.

Like HBO's Band of Brothers mini-series, Brothers in Arms depicts the real-life account of American paratroopers liberating France. While Band of Brothers focused on the 506, Brothers in Arms takes us through eight days in the life of the 3rd squad, 3rd platoon of the 502 as they work to secure the American invasion of Normandy.

You can read the article here.

From what I understand it's not your average FPS, you have to control your squad, give orders etc, get it wrong, youll get them all and youself killed.

Looking at the review it does look good, but if what Mani has said is true, makes me think ugh.
