"A unique blend of battlefield tactics and first-person shooting make Hell's Highway more interesting than its familiar WWII trappings let on."

Game Review #4: Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway – Gearbox Software

Upon the completion of the final installation in Gearbox Software’s acclaimed trilogy, I have quite a lot to say. Not a lot of it is good. Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway was released on PC on Octobe… Read more

PSN - Full Game Trial

I played the Full Game Trial of this game on PSN. My opinions are only about the first hour of the game. Hell's Highway is my first foray into the Brothers in Arms series. The story seems to be woven… Read more

Hell's Highway is Shooter Heaven

This game started out kind of odd, with controls that were hard to get used to. After a while you won't notice, but you'll get all mixed up when playing one of your other shooters. I watched some game… Read more

Not just another WWII shooter.

The first thing I need to make clear is this game is not another run of the mill WWII shooter. It is a FPS game that takes place in WWII but it offers game play mechanics that are rarely if ever seen… Read more

An unexpected surpirse

Brother's in Arms HH. Is a solid game with a gripping story. A lot of people came in with the notion, that this will be as good as Modern Warfare. That sucks because this game is more on the strategic… Read more

Micro-Review: One of the Biggest Surprises on the 360

If you are looking for a run and gun shooter, then this is not your game. However, if you are looking for a paced tactical game then this will fit the bill. While this game touts itself to be an FPS,… Read more

Omg this is awesome

I don't say this about ww2 games any more but DAMN THIS IS AWESOME ! Games about ww2 aren't fun anymore but this game makes me love it again . This is the third game in the series and it is out standi… Read more

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway

Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway attempts to present the player with a harsh, realistic insight into World War II. While it certainly does this more successfully than any other game before it, it does… Read more

Strategic squad-based action makes for a fantastic experience.

Let’s just get this out of the way: Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway is, hands-down, the best WWII game of this console generation… period. Continuing the tale of the 101st Airborne Division, Hell’s H… Read more

ARMS IN ARMS

Me and Brothers In Arms go back to the early Xbox 1 days of its excistance. I love the tactical aspects of this kind of shooter. The story is awsome even if you never played the previous games. The gr… Read more

Good Game

The graphics look pretty good throughout the whole game. One feature i really liked was the slow-mo head shots that occurred from time to time. When enemies are shot, they actually appear to suffer fr… Read more

On a Highway To Hell

A lot of people are tired of the World War II setting but I just can't seem to get enough of it. After consuming the above average and quite fun Call of Duty: World at War I was still itching for some… Read more

World War II Isn't Dead Yet

The Brothers In Arms series has been giving gamers a new way to play World War II, and has become a well known franchise for it's blend of intense action and squad-based tactics. In the first game, yo… Read more

Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway unbias review

Brothers In Arms plays like a WWII Rainbow Six Vegas (but with a lot more squads at your control) and if your into that then by all means this wont disappoint, with only a few errors that are minor th… Read more

One of the best WW2 games I've played

WW2 is a bit overdone by now. So many games playing the same few moments over and over again. By now I think that D-Day has been repeated 50 million times. But Brothers In Arms does something differen… Read more

Fun Game

this is not the best game in the world but is still a fun game, it looks great and the story is nothing you haven't seen in a ww2 game or movie or book. but what sets this game apart from all the othe… Read more

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway PS3 Review

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway is a World War II squad tactical shooter. In the game you play as Ssgt. Baker, commander of an airborne army squad. The story is like a epic theatrical movie. There ar… Read more

Interesting, but not good enough

This is a different take on the first person shooter, where control of your AI team should be more important than your own sharpshooting abilities. Sadly your own team don't have quite enough sense an… Read more

One of the best WWII shooters you'll ever play.

Following the previous games, Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway puts you in the shoes of Sergent Matt Baker as you lead a squad and fight in the historical Operation Market Garden. The game leaves a go… Read more

A powerful story, but somewhat disappointing gameplay.

Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway finally gets it right. What right, exactly? The story. Gearbox’s third entry into their innovative (I’m being serious here.) tactical WWII shooter tells a gripping, em… Read more

A Shockingly Unique WWII Shooter.

We live in a world where the WWII first person shooter is not only common but redundant. When you add up the total number of Brothers in Arms, Medal of Honor and Call of Duty games- with the exception… Read more

A great and immersive experience.

I remember I played the first Brothers in Arms when it came out, I played it, liked it, but the game never got me that interested to make it to the end. Hell's Highway was a different experience. With… Read more

Watch Band of Brothers instead.

This game feels like it should have been released in 2005 rather than 2008 seeing as how it hasn't evolved since the last game what so ever and still has akward controls which get on your nerves while… Read more

A good enough game that I don't even mind it's set in WW2.

Pros Pretty intense action that utilizes cover mechanics well. A story less about the war and more about a handful of the people in it, which gives it a more personal touch then some other games provi… Read more

A great tactical first person shooter

Brothers in Arms is definitely a FPS through and through although it provides a somewhat slower paced experience than other FPS games. All enemy teams (small groups of a few enemies each) are marked w… Read more

It is quite an experience.

Over the last couple of years there has been quite a lot of talk about how stale WWII games are getting. I think that most gamers can understand why. Most of the games go over the same things, D-day,… Read more

BIA: HH My Review

Remember when you first looked up games coming to your console. Every new console has those games that are “coming soon”. Sometimes these slip away from the expected release date, and sometimes they s… Read more

Fantastic *Contains Spoiler(s)*

Not much to tell, unless you want spoilers.... Hell's Highway is one of those games where, you have to have played at least one of the previous games, in this case, Road to Hill 30. The storyline is b… Read more

Worth the wait.

It feels like it's been 3 years waiting for this game...oh wait it has.This game has been delayed--then delayed--then delayed--then delayed.I think there's a few more delays in that list, but I also t… Read more

Brother's in Arms: Hell's Highway for the Xbox 360
