The teasing on Gearbox Software's War Story
Website has culminated in the announcement of
Brothers in Arms,
the title of this upcoming World War II game they hope represents "the most
realistic and authentic WWII shooter ever." Here's a bit:
Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, today reinforces its strategy to
dominate the war games market by announcing a long-term deal with award-winning
developer Gearbox Software to publish a new military franchise: Brothers in
Arms(tm). With its breakthrough squad-based combat mechanism and unprecedented
realism, the first game in the series is poised to revolutionize the WWII genre
when it ships on consoles and PC starting Holiday 2004. Created by Texas-based
Gearbox Software, Brothers in Arms is the most realistic and authentic WWII
shooter ever. While other WWII games have sugarcoated the war experience,
Brothers in Arms is based on a true story and will immerse gamers into the
gritty, uncensored and emotionally-charged side of war. The game puts you in the
shoes of Sgt. Matt Baker, a D-Day paratrooper squad leader, and asks you to lead
the squad as you balance their lives with the success of the mission. The true
stories and historical events you experience on your perilous journey take you
through real battlefields meticulously recreated from aerial reconnaissance
images, US Army Signal Corps photos and eye-witness accounts of war-torn
Normandy. Players of all skill levels can battle their way through this intense
experience because of Brothers in Arms innovative and accessible command and
control system."
The first screenshots from the game are in
UGO's Brothers in Arms Preview, which includes some first-hand impressions
and offers some details not included in the press release.

oh wow, another one. And with a sub-par (from the looks of it) engine to boot.

No, not every German soldier killed Jews. But every single one who carried out his orders was an accomplice. Just like every American soldier is responsible for his army's (not his as a possesive, his as in the one he belongs to) actions in Iraq and elsewhere. Even if he's at home or stationed in say, Japan, he has consciously joined an organization responsible for much suffering.
You can't really be neutral on the sbject of the Holocaust. If you were part of the German army, its quite clear that you were a supported of the Nazi regime and their actions against the Jews.
