I picked up brothers in arms hells highway from best buy for $20 on black friday. I've been reading reviews and scores in magazines and online and they didn't do to well, this was probably down to the fact that there was no chance of Brothers in Arms competing with Call of Duty in the world war 2 game to buy. Because of this Brothers in Arms has been overlooked. For $20 it was an amazing buy. Okay the guns aren't as good as Call of Duty, nor the graphics or general gameplay, however the game itself is still good, just because it doesn't quite compete with call of duty 5 in this aspect of the game it doesn't mean that it's a bad game. The story mode lasts a long time, and sometimes takes multiple plays of the same chapter to finally complete it. The whole team mate system is what brothers in arms is famous for; the cinematics are excellent and the story mode is deeply engaging. I've had the last two brothers in arms games before this so I know how the story goes. This is what brothers in arms excells in and for $20 I'm really glad I bought it. I haven't tried online yet because I'm pretty tied up with COD 5 online but I'll get to it soon enough.
I'm also contemplating a 360 at christmas because they are really cheap now and I want something for my bedroom. I'm keeping the Ps3 downstairs and it will always be my primary system however a 360 would be nice for games like Gears of War 2. Any other games suggestions for a 360?
