This game series is seriously underrated. The Story is that Sgt. Matthew Baker is tasked with commanding a squad of soldiers during the battle of Normandy in WW2, but is nervous that his actions will cause the deaths of these people, this franchise was obviously inspired by "Band of Brothers" you can see it in the style of how things are done, now this story isn't a masterpiece like "Band of Brothers" is, but it is still a great idea for a videogame about a near same situation, with it's real feel, due to the fact this was also based on a real life story, it holds up on it's own merits, and shows us more of the Battle of Normandy, which wasn't around much in "Band of Brothers". The Characters range from great, likeable, and memorable to not enough time was put to certain ones, and during the mission "Purple Heart Lane" I don't like how the last 5 soldiers just appear with the Protagonist, and 1 of them dies from a sniper offscreen before the level even starts. Graphics on Xbox are good, nothing great, but the tone is nice, and they have enough detail to feel like emoting videogame characters, but the PS2 version's graphics are awful, the same for the 2nd game, they are so incomplete that I couldn't bring myself to play them, in fact that is the only reason I played the Xbox version and not the PlayStation ones. The Gameplay has you shoot German soldiers like in "Call of Duty", but unlike those games, you can actually command your soldiers to fire upon enemies, flank them, charge at them, suppress fire, and can be killed if your decisions don't help them, but the respawn later in the mission, but it's nice to see how your actions would affect them, but you have to be very careful when attacking soldiers as your health does NOT come back, so if you get shot 4 times, you will die, and that system alone should help give this game it's fans, but it's hard to find anyone that even knows about this game's existence. The Music is awesome, fits the mood whenever it comes up and the intro music is so good, it's beautiful on the ears. Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 is a Band of Brothers game done very well, and that is all I can really be grateful for.
