			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.ciao.co.uk/Brothers_in_Arms_Hells_Highway_PS3__6541946">Brothers In Arms: Hell’s Highway</a> has been receiving fairly good reviews across the board and I was eager to play this game as I have such a love of World War 2 games.  It is a squad based tactical shooter which I am not usually keen on though.  The controls are quite intimidating at first and it is confusing to start off with how to use them effectively, but with perseverance I found that they were really easy to use and I could use the options to good effect. </p>
<p>It is not a short game by any means, I suppose it took me between 12-14 hours which is an average length game and 3 times the pitiful length of Call of Duty 4. </p>
<p>The game is a little buggy in places and occasionally members of my team would get stuck in scenery but if you progress they will come running forward.  The AI is very strong and you must use cover properly or face a quick death.  Your team mates will even shout at you to get to cover if you are not doing it properly. There are some sections where the AI are really hard to break through and one level very near the end took me many attempts to complete.  It is vital you use suppressing fire from the front with one or two teams and flank them from the left or right so they are unsuspecting.  Oddly, the game went from easy to hard to easy to hard and so on throughout the game, not a continual increase in difficulty.  The tank sections were really easy though and the tank guns made easy work of the enemy. </p>
<p>Visually the game looks good but is not a stunner with the likes of Call of Duty 4 or Bioshock for example.  There&#8217;s the odd clipping against scenery and occasional framerate dips but on the whole it is good, but not awesome.  Graphics in the cutscenes looked fantastic though and the models of soldiers were impressive.</p>
<p>The best part of the game though has to be the storyline.  WW2 shooters have never had the best storylines to accompany the games but this story was very interesting and I was compelled to watch the cutscenes throughout &#8211; something which I rarely do. </p>
<p>Despite a few bugs here and there and the spikes of difficulty, I have thoroughly enjoyed this game and I would recommend fans of WW2 games to play it.</p>
<p>GREAT/10</p>
