The same? More like an update.
Sound is a wonderful part to any game, it certainly hits the spot in Brothers in Arms. Gunfire, grenades, with the atmosphere around you, its never changed from last time, why? because it was that good the last time that the atmosphere is just about right, you feel close to the game.
You play the first Brothers in Arms and then play the second one, you thin, has anything changed? The answer is yes, surprisingly, only the multiplayer options has been revamped and gives a new feel to spirit of teams against each other and playing amongst your friends in deathmatches. It's an improved experience certainly.
The game is the same, I suppose the A.I. has improved with the Germans and your fellow brothers in arms, that to the side, you dont really see anything different.
Despite it containing the goods from the previous BIA title, I do sense that they should of stuck to the first title, and left it for us to relish. No need to repeat another game.
