Title: Band of Brothers

Has anyone tried this game yet? It came out just a few days ago, but I just got it now. I've played a little bit of it so far. When I first started, I thought it'd be like Call of Duty, just a good first person shooter. But there's more to it than that. You can command your squad. You can tell them where to move, and who to shoot at, stuff like that. You can tell them to move up and suppress the German's fire, while you go on ahead and flank them. I don't know if the commanding part is the most fun aspect in the game, but at least it's a little different.

That's "Brothers in Arms", not "Band of Brothers".

I haven't played it yet, but it's gotten amazing reviews.

I loved Band of Brothers so much I bought the DVDs. Brothers in arms looks okay, most games with the squad system are dumb do to that lack of ai in your squad.

And those games all got 7-8 from 90% of the reviewers.  The lowes rating I've seen for Brothers in Arms so far has been a 9.1.
