    In only two console titles, Gearbox and Ubisoft have pretty much mastered the WWII shooting genre. In terms of presentation, technical gameplay, graphics, and audio, it’s nearly impossible to rise above Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood in any area, which makes me think that this franchise will be the one to watch in the next generation of consoles. If campaign-style action heavy on tactics and story is what you seek, then look no further than Brothers in Arms: Earned... Read more

    I enjoyed Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood as much as I enjoyed the PC version of Brother in Arms: Road to Hill 30 which says a lot. If you enjoyed Road to Hill 30 then it goes without saying that Earned in Blood is an essential purchase on the format of your choice. Xbox owners will be impressed with how the game plays and whilst there are many enjoyable FPS games on the console, none offer the same mix of strategy and action as the Brothers in Arms games.

    as one of the most realistic and accurate war games to ever grace a console when it hit streets six months ago. Its excellent combination of an epic and uncensored storyline with tactical strategy and shooting was particularly pleasing. Now, publisher Ubisoft and developer Gearbox are at it again with the sequel Read more

    With its unprecedented combination of authenticity, compelling story and squad-based action, Brothers in Arms Road to Hill 30 has established itself as a benchmark for military action games.

    Brothers in Arms: Earned Blood addresses some of the issues of its predecessor, Road to Hill 30. But in the process it comes across as more of an expansion pack than a true, stand-alone game. Read more

    War games come and go, but like a bad case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, the thirst for an evermore realistic battle experience keeps coming back. Building on the phenomenal success of the Brothers in Blood‘s first outing; Road to Hill 30, Gearbox has won themselves yet more medals. Brace yourself for a superb looking, Panzer–exploding drop into Nazi–occupied Northern France as part of the 101st Airborne parachute offensive. As Sgt. Joe "Red" Hartstock,... Read more

    I absolutely love this game but it has one major flaw. IT DOESN'T WORK ON X360. this is by far the best world war two game pretty much ever made. I have beaten the game on every difficulty but i still return to it because there are so many different ways to play to game. The story is great and is not a cop-off of a world war two movie such as saving private Ryan. Microsoft please make this game work on xbox 360!!!! if you plan to buy this game you might as well grab road... Read more
