In other Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood news, Gearbox Software and Ubisoft have announced (http://www.brothersinarmsgame.com/us/fullpost.php?id=12756) that the game has Gone Gold.

Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, and acclaimed developer Gearbox Software, announces that Brothers In Arms Earned In Blood, the next chapter in the compelling Brothers in Arms story, has gone gold on PC and will be on store shelves from October, 6th 2005.

With its unprecedented combination of authenticity, compelling story and squad-based action, Brothers In Arms Road to Hill 30 has established itself as a benchmark for military action games. Brothers In Arms Earned In Blood builds upon the elements that have made Brothers in Arms Road to Hill 30 a runaway success by adding new features and game modes. Featuring a new single-player narrative, new multiplayer missions, an all-new cooperative-style game mode, and new weapons and vehicles, Brothers In Arms Earned In Blood promises to lead the way this Fall.

Really great interview. I'm really impressed with that dude's enthusiasm for his game. I think I'm going to go pick up the original Brothers in Arms tomorrow.

So, I never got around to playing the first one. I understand it was good, but was it, like, that-was-a-fun-game-good or more like, you're-missing-out-on-critical-life-experiences-by-not-playing-this-game-good?

Let's hope they optimized this one better than the crap-job they did on Halo PC...

From the inerview:
Randy Pitchford: So, what we did is we took a lot of the historical material and some information about how we made the game and we included it all as extras. Every copy on every platform has these extras. We didn't create some different, more expensive "special edition" - we made EVERY edition special.


Wow, I'm sold

Yeah, Randy handles Gearbox's PR. Honestly, with a mission statement like that who needs a separate PR department? Quite the salesman.

I was initially under the impression that EiB was going to be an expansion, but was really glad to hear its a full blown sequel, with longer playing time, and a german campaign!
Great interview, psyched about seeing this hit store shelves.

Can you say co-op?
