Has anybody on All Empires ever played any of the Brothers in Arms games? I think they are the most accurate, both historically and with aiming/enemy AI. I thought that the Road to Hill 30 was perfect, showing the brutality of war, but also being about 100% historically accurate except for changing a few names.

I have the first one, it is a great game. Couldn't get the second one, but I think I'm just going to get the third one when it comes out, really looking forward to it.

Actually, I think the graphics are pretty good, Top Gun. But, graphics are nothing in a game, it is the gameplay and the sound. Both are just amazing. I think it is better than Medal of Honor and Call of Duty because it is much more realistic (the enemy is harder, there are no healthpacks, you possess human accuracy in the sense that your gun does not stay perfectly still, you get to command a squad that is not full of idiots). I do not know about the others who have played this game, but my favorite characters from Road to Hill 30 are Mac, Baker, Corrion, and Legget (in that order).

Well, graphic is a considerable factor for the games. You should see the graphic difference between original playstation and Playstation 3. Wink 
 
And I personally don't really care about historical accuracy in the games. Games are designed for fun. As long as enemies are not too easy like the early version of Call of Duty, where one American computer player can wipe out several German computer players and take out few panzers... I mean, as long as if it's a balanced game... it's fine.

True, but for me, graphics, as long as they are good, are not much a considerable factor. I would never choose a game with horrible gameplay, no matter how good the graphics.

The early versions of Call of Duty and the entire Medal of Honor series are similar because you can just be like a one-man army.
