Though there was a lot of hype around BiA:RtHT, it managed to pull it off with the exception of a few bugs. I would, and GS too, would have rated this game much higher if it did not have so many issues with being installed and generally playing the game. But once you get passed those issues and get to play the game without a crash (or two), you begin to see that this is either all it's cracked up to be or crap. It is by no means DoD or CoD, so some die hard run-n-gun fans of those series may have been disappointed, I on the other hand, who play those games with a little strategy from time to time found BiA a great success. I was one of the lucky few who experienced to bugs and excellent game play from this game. The Game play is nothing short of brilliant. It combines the elements of a tactical shooter like Full Spectrum Warrior but adds the gritty and intense feeling of war that CoD offers. Combined you get a product so gritty and raw that you just can't help but duck in your chair when being shot at. The fire and maneuver technique was well put together. The squad ideas work great and I for one have only had a couple of instances where the AI made a mistake. The graphics were the lowest point, the general textures could have been improved on, especially those at a distance but it was still well above par. The sound was amazing. All the authentic weapon sounds were put together great. The only drawback on the sound was the fact that MG42's always sound like they are close by and the odd instance of talking to another character and having their voice come out the wrong speaker. Other than that, it was great. Brothers in Arms lived up to its hype in my opinion and is the most realistic and intense WWII FPS I have every played. It revolutionized the genre and I hope to see more installments of this soon to be wonderful series.
