    Just copied and pasted this from the official site:

    Brothers In Arms Hell’s Highway - Next Generation. The classic authentic, squad-based combat series explodes on next-generation hardware, offering unprecedented graphics and features.
    New Story, New Setting. Follow Matt Baker, Joe Hartsock and the rest of the 101st Airborne Division in Operation Market-Garden as they fight to open infamous Hell’s Highway in a daring bid for a quick end to the war.

    Live the Life of an Enlisted Man. Get orders from HQ, go on patrol, spot the enemy, and set up a devastating ambush. For the first time, finding the enemy before they find you is part of the challenge.

    Unprecedented Character Design. Lifelike characters look, talk, move, and think with incredible realism. Game characters interact with the player and each other like true brothers-in-arms, trading ammunition, helping wounded allies, working together to man team-operated weapons, and more.

    Rich Cinematic Experience. As the squad leader, you interact and get to know your brothers through the game. Each character has his own personality, unique story and background and grows through the game.

    Powerful New Units Under Your Command. Players can use or command combined arms teams – machine gun crews create intense fire, bazooka crews destroy buildings and tanks, and mortar crews pound the enemy from a distance.

    Step into the Boots of a Soldier. Hit the dirt and get prone, rip grenades from your chest and hurl them at your enemies. See and feel the blast of nearby explosions.
    Destroyable Cover. Keep your men moving, and choose your cover wisely – simulated with real physics, weapons will damage, dent, scorch, and destroy the world around you.

    Completely New Multiplayer Experience. Fight major Multiplayer battles with dozens of players on each side; all the intensity and accessibility of Deathmatch meshed with the squad-based gameplay that helped make Brothers in Arms famous.


    Now I really can't wait.

    You had a look at 'Medal Of Honor Airborne' yet?

    Had a go on my mates PC. It was difficult using the keyboard to navigate, but the graphics were really, really cool. The airborne drop sequences are unbelievably good and the intensity of what's going on around you makes your heart feel as if it's skipping a beat or two.

    I really recommend it to any wargames fan. I just have to wait until I can afford a PS3. :(

    Also MoH: Vanguard is a must buy. ;)

    I previously stated my opinion concerning MoH:Airborne and it hasn't changed. I like the beautiful graphics and the innovative drop sequences, but that doesn't make up for some of the bigger bugs that's in the game. It just didn't have that "wow" effect to me, like the BIA games for instance, imo. I liked Vanguard though, but I guess my expectations wasn't as big towards Vanguard as it was with Airborne.

    ok ok, Tried downloading the demo of COD4 and found thats its imcompatable with my 12 month old mid range video card. PC gaming is just getting to expensive. I cant afford too and have no inclination to replace my hardware every 12 months. Im dying for BIAHH but theres no way its going to run on my PC.

    Looks like I am getting the xbox.

    The best deals are either

    play at £249 with Halo

    Amazon at £249 with Halo or MOA Airbourne, next day delivery

    A -another 2 bit internet shop at £230 with no game


    Im tempted to go for Amazon with halo3, even though I lone ww2 shooters MOA just drives me to exteme anger. Is airbourne any better? Have they got rid of the stupid guns and made it bit more realistic.

    What do you think guys. What are you getting from Santa?

    Ai Kev, I can vouch for that. However i'm hearing positive stuff about the ps3 too, so I think i'm leaning towards the ps3 instead of an xbox. Hopefully santa will provide me with the ps3 including extra controller + Assassin's Creed & Fifa 08. Sure would look decent on the lcd :D

    nah, games are expensive, all my mates have 360's so it makes sense to get one, cheaper too.

    Halo3 or MOA, you dont rate MOA do you?

    I'd go with Halo 3, but maybe the xbox version of MOA is better than on pc.

    When I look at the opening of the new games and see the words "explodes on your screen with the next generation of new hardware," it means that I won't be playing it just yet.
    These physics multi pixal shader cards are just too expensive at the moment and one has to wait.
    How young kids afford them is beyond me.
