This Game is truly Amazing!! Best WWII Game yet!!

Here's a GS reader Review::

=====================

BIA:HH is not just my favorite game in the series,
but probably my favorite shooter of all time, just
shy of perfection. 9.5!!

Difficulty: Just Right
Time Spent: 10 to 20 Hours
The Bottom Line: "Best in series"


First off, If you have not played the first two games, I would
highly recommend them, you can get them cheaply on steam.
The story is very effective at portraying the characters, and
your allies seem very real. Being squad leader, you are haunted
by the memories off your fallen men. These scenes are very
good at making Matt (your character) believable, although
they may be confusing if you haven't played the first games.
This game is a technical masterpiece and has some of the
best graphics I have ever seen. Once I edited the .ini and
made some driver tweaks, I could run it with aa and more
advanced options. With these tweaks, it was probably the
best looking game on the pc outside of crysis.
(haven't played warhead) It also runs very well on the highest
settings (and much higher with tweaks) on my 8800gts, 5600+,
4gb ram at 1680x1050. The sound is excellent such as the
weapon sounds and battle chatter, although it is a bit disappointing
to see that there aren't many options for things such as eax.
(surround sound may be a tweak or it might take your desktop setting, idk)
The gameplay is similar to the other games. The major differences
here are the inclusion of "dig-in", basically like r6:v, but without
blindfire, and destructible environments. Only tables and fences
are destructible with bullets, with sandbags and some walls being
destructible with explosives. It's kind of disappointing to see the
physics not used on stone walls, especially when flak 88's are firing
at you and you hide behind a metal table or sheet metal. The cover
system works fairly well, but you cannot really play effectively with
out it, so you can't really play like a normal fps as far as cover goes.
You can turn off the crosshair for dig in, so that makes it a bit more
difficult. As always, I turned off the crosshair for normal play, but
most of the combat is dig-in anyway, so the crosshair just gets in
the way.
I played it on veteran (middle difficulty), and it provided a challenge,
but it wasn't too hard for the most part. I have not tried multiplayer,
but that's not why i bought the game, just a bonus. Overall, the
technology used is incredibly impressive, especially with tweaks,
and the story is phenomenal. The game is also fairly long for a fps.

The only thing keeping this from a "10" is the cover system that
seems to be pretty much mandatory. I would love to see a mod
that changes that in the future. O and you get to use a tank a
few times, but these levels are incredibly easy/ arcadey, but fun nonetheless.

=====================

GameSpot:: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/broth ... index.html

I've played Road to Hill 30 so I am familiar with the game and how it works, I've also played Gears
and the Cover System is just like that, sorta with an Over Head view Map to use anytime!!

This game is a MUST have PC Game, if you can Grab it!!

Blue

The GFX are Amazing that's a GIVEN!!

:o :shock: Just loved this game, a MUST have game, even if you
don't care for war games, the GFX are the best I've seen using the UT3 Engine.
As sweet as Crysis, no kidding!!

I would not add this game if it was not amazing!! :)
