I'm kinda burnt out on the whole WW2 genre right now. BiA looks good so I'll pick this one up eventually, unless it gets bad reviews in the forums.

I was pretty excited about BiA at one time, but I'm also burned out on WW2. I wouldn't be suprised if it does well on PC, but the less than great results for Call of Duty on consoles tells me the interest there is low for WW2 shooters right now.

I cant ever get burned on brilliant WW2 games, and I cannot freaking wait for BIA. Hopefully it will actually come out in early March.

Go to www.gearboxsoftware.com and look up :wink: , it will say blank number of items to be completed etc. I`m also burnt out on World war 2 games for a bit, BUT...This looks awesome. The reason why COD rocked on the PC and sucked on the Xbox and other consoles wasn`t because were burnt out on WWII games but rather the console games sucked. This is a cross between full spectrum warrior and COD. Look here http://xbox.ign.com/articles/579/579774p1.html, tell me that MP doesn`t look and sound great.

This game was my #1 game at E3 last May. I sat through the 20 minute demo and picked my jaw off the floor when I left.
I'm all over this one. Most anticipated game for sure, STALKER is right behind it though.

looks good sounds great, but im so burned otu on WW2 games ive decided to go with First to Fight. Its a shooter of the same caliber as this one (mabey a wee bit less squad orriented) based on modern day marines and what they do. Since they are supposedly released on the same day, i think im gonna check out First to Fight.

This is exactly the case re: CoD. I'm as burnt out as the next person, as we've all wiped out the German populace time and again. If the game is cool, I'll pick it up eventually for PC but for right now I want to play in other genres.

What do you mean by "less than great results for Call of Duty on consoles?" Are you implying that it didn't sell well? Finest Hour sold like hot cakes for Activision. It was a mediocre game from all accounts, but its sales indicate that the market for WWII games is still alive and well.

I dont know if anyone has noticed, but the number of things has fallen to 20 in less than a day. I know there were some internet rumors that they were trying to hit a 2/22 release date, and if that list gets done tomorrow and they submit a RC, its feasible-3/8 still looks likely, but i expect the game is a few days away from being gold.
Cannot frigging wait.

I think he meant it sucked, not that it sold poorly. When he said "interest is low" he seems to be implying sales, but whatever. By all accounts, Brothers In Arms looks to be an excellent game and hopefully will sell as well as Finest Hour.

Gamestop has still not changed the 2/22 release date...lets say the game is already "gold" and the 8 bugs left are actually the 8 remaining things before a RC can be certified gold. They will be working this weekend, so that gives them Monday-Monday (7 days) for manufacturing and distributing.
Its a stretch, but you never now. Man I am looking forward to this one more and more every day, i just hope they get the FSW squad commanding to be visceral and still have the combat be COD style satisfying.

Well bad news. The list went down to 6, then up to 24 or something, and now, is up to.....wait for it.... 257!!!!!YIKES!!! This leads me to believe that work items went to zero-a RC was submitted, and sent back with 257 or more new or old items. Keeping this in mind, the 3/8 looks most likely. Shame

As long as it doesn`t take forever and it isn`t buggy, they can take their time and get it right :wink: .

We were down to 56 earlier today  Anyways, this is a good sign, I think the 3/8 date is solid and I cannot wait. As for which version-Harp, I can't imagine picking this up on PC considering: a. controls-keyboard and mouse makign both the FPS portion and certainly the tactical portion easier to play. b. I have a nifty system and I want to see it look purty. c. I will enjoy the multiplayer more given a. above-the control scheme. I would enjoy the hell out of playing this with you and the guys on XBox Live, but I am going to push you to buy the PC version so I dont have to

Better graphics, patches, easier control-and equally good multiplayer absent the ease of communication, etc. Come on!! Get it on PC and lets start a mini-clan!

The very easy voice setup on Live! is great. That`s a big factor for me. Plus I wanna see how buggy the PC game is and how much the graphics differ.
