Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway

Probably one of the best WWII games I have ever played with the exception of the online gameplay. The storyline has probably some of the best twists and saddest points of any WWII game I played. The problem though is that on the XB360 version(As I don't have either the PS3 or PC version of the game) is that the online gameplay is glitchy and really bad lag. I'm also disappointed on the amount of stuff in the online feature with only one game type and five different maps. And there's no Co-Op gameplay which really disappointed me.

as a PC user i can say the BiA series has always prided its self on its single player exsperience and then they tack on a multiplayer in the end... to go with demand...

i had to say the damn game could of been alot better.... its great that a bazooka squad can blow up a bunch of sandbags but not a crumbeling brick wall? Why are assualt squads so crap at everything including assualting.... also the fact it wont matter if the enermy is supressed you pop your head up there literally "ACTUNG" and shoot you in the face meaning most of the game i was hidden behind a wall just telling my assualt squad to spam randomly and not hit anything (well i didnt tell them to do the latter but they do that automatically) and then i just pointed out enermy targets for my riflemen/bazooka squad.... unless it was one of those 3 inch high brick walls in which i was forced to play whack a mole with my rifle as the nazis become immune to things like rockets in there face....

all in all it could of been a solid title... its definatly one of the more intresting WW2 games and the storyline is compelling as well as "band of brothers" kinda feel to the whole thing.... however... it pales to things like Call of Duty: united offensive... although having AI team mates that for once that are easy to manage and not complete idiots is a nice touch... even if they are ineffective most of the time.

i played the first, but it got realy boring because it was supressing the enemy and flanking them all the times. it was allways the same and very repetitive
is it still the same as the bia games before?
