Quotes:

Captain Price: [to MacGregor, trying to get the armored vehicle to run] What in blazes are you waiting for, man? Get this thing moving MacGregor!
Pvt. MacGregor: I'm trying sir, but the bloody controls are all in German!
Captain Price: [to Sgt. Davis] Davis! Enemy infantry, 12 o'clock! Open fire!
Captain Price: [to Pvt. MacGregor] You dunce! Just put your foot on that pedal and push!
Pvt. MacGregor: Right, sir!
Pvt. MacGregor: [finally got the armored vehicle to run] Hang on!
Captain Price: [to MacGregor who seems to be having trouble in steering the wheel] What on earth are you trying to do, MacGregor? It's not that hard, just turn the wheel in the direction you want to go!

Awesome!

This is the only World War 2 game I've ever played and its fantastic! The voice overs are amazing, giving more emotion and life into these soldiers than graphics can even dream of. I watched the special on the History channel about this game and found out they recorded real weapons for the combat. While you are in the actual game, you find there is so much going on, that its impossible to keep up with it all, it is truly amazing! The cinematic experience is absolutely mind-boggling! What I loved the most about this game was the squad. You feel for these characters, and there are only a small number of cut-scenes! I'll give you a small introduction. First, Glenn Hawkins, or "Hawk", he's your "sarge" and a hell of a sarge at that! Pvt. Alvin Bloomfield, or "Brooklyn", the comic-relief, a true Jew(no meaning of hate)! Pvt. Stephen Kelly, no nickname, a small, glasses-wearing, intellectual- he graduated from Yale, top of his class. Pvt. Victor Denley, or "Vic", a hell of Linebacker, but a tedious shot. Lt. Norman Delaney, no nickname, a born leader, son of a decorated WW1 lieutenant. Pvt. John Jackson Smith, or "Smitty", a skilled engineer, always needs to keep busy with his hands- entered the division without an ounce of combat training and is a bit on the beefy side. Quite a few of them will die, I'm not telling which, and you'll cry like a baby each time! Overall, outstanding! 10/10 P.S.-Get the Special Edition, interviews with WW2 veterans and all!
