I've read some reviews and impressions, and so far sounding like a top-notch title. I'll probably hold off a while, since I've cancelled my XBL and the single-player I hear is relatively short.

Isn't anyone tired of games based oon world war 2, most of us were still tad-poles in our parents loins when WW2 was happening, when is some one with balls going to bring out a first person shooter that is based on african wars, god knows we have enough meterial to produce a game every day, and please for god sake if some one is going to produce a game based on african war's. Please get the accent right & do ur F***in research right. I am sick of tired of hearing black man on a game with either the worst jamaican/african accent.
Someone please help

Odd for Gamespot to give a PS2 game such a low mark :P

Going tonight to pick it up. Republic Commandoes is tempting as an alternative but I can't pass up on the WWII shooter in recent months...

I hear very good things. It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine..

I will get both of them, Republic Commando and Brother in Arms.
After playing BIA, I doubt I'll get RC. I like WWII stuff. I don't need super lightning fast attack rifles or whatever w/ the sci fi stuff. Give me some good old fashioned WWII rifles and a compelling story line and you just made yourself $50
Well about to break my cherry on the live.
If anyone is down, Casper and I will be on for the next little bit. SilverOak? Go home, play live.

Yea, I'm more of a first person shooter myself, but I go for the realism. Thats one of the reasons I didnt really get into Halo2 much.I just finished BIA, but Im gonna try and beat it on Difficult this time. I played on level on Difficult and one of the Nazi's I had cornered just ran out in some sort of Kamakaze suicide run. Ba$tard hit me a couple of times before giving him two in the face.

I got it today before work. If anyone is interested in it, here it is for cheap!

It says sold out, but....here is the ad if you are interested in getting a PM, remember, sale ends tomorrow!

Live is good. I'd sacrifice the squads for more players, as 2v2 gets me angry. Turn the reticule on. I don't use it for SP, but after getting smoked a million times while my opponent was on the run I figured out he had it on. Read the briefing before you go in. No co-op. That sucks.
This game rocks though. I'm only on day 2 on the SP, but holy hell it's definitely the best wwii shooter to grace the xbox, and one of the best of all time IMO.
There's not much coming up for me that I'm interested in so I'll probably play this for awhile
Loading times suck, but eh, it's worth it. It looks good, plays well. Voice acting, sounds, everything is top notch. I'm actually watching the cutscenes, which is rare for me.
Horrible mini review, but I'm tired. If you like WWII shooters, this is a must buy.
