I just picked up the new Brothers in Arms game and I have to say that all of you at Gearbox who worked on it did a great job. I love playing a war game that has me developing strategies instead of just rushing head first killing Nazi's and has a story that is mature and treats the war and soldiers with respect.
My favorite part of the game I've played so far is
| Spoilers (highlight to read) |
| when I reach the church and have to take out the sniper. At first I thought, "Fuck another confined church segment in a video game." The way it is set up is much more fast paced and fun than I thought it would be. Running from cover spot to cover spot with only one soldier backing me up is the most fun I've had in a church in a video game ever. I also love the fact that I can shoot a Nazi hiding behind a wooden pew by shooting the pew. |
Posted By: RerunI bought it on the PS3 because my 360 just died and I wanted to play a new game. Josh was so fucking right on the podcast with the 'you get less framerate for your money' quote. It's not a bad game though, love the strategy and the slow-gore...

I was actually meaning to ask, did you voice the farmer who is your informant in the first mission? It sounded a lot like you.You try the best you can. The best you can is good enough.

I want to know who decided on the fuck crazy achievements. Play on a certain date (Already passed due to delays), play for a certain amount of days, play every day for 3 months all while connected to xbox live. I fucken hate that about achievements, what if xbox live goes down (coming into christmas highly possible) all achievements should be possible to get with the contents purchased with the game and not rely on something the developer/publisher can't guarantee, i just think that's retarded.
Posted By: abacedsetDid Joel play the guy that said that gun could put a hole in superman?
I didn't even get to see him shot.
And was Eli the lead artist?
And Josh animates right?
Now i can track them down.. HAHA!
You guys live in Alabama right?gamertag: abacedset
You know, I think you might have something there!Posted By: Mike BradyWhy do you think he kills Josh in every comic?
Already happened last week so they could do the update thing. Some of the achievements seem to be a punishment for achievement whores, which amuses me. I'd still rather the points be "available" (I know they technically are, but...) to regular gamers, but it is amusing enough for me to not mind so much.Posted By: Ferroswhat if xbox live goes down
Posted By: John DarcHey man, the game testers were high on pizza and weed. Maybe they thought of it.Move over, bananas! I've got a new source of potassium!
So I'm more then a year behind, but I really am enjoying this game!
