Anyone been able to find this yet? Fry's started running ads early this week stating they'd have it by Thursday afternoon. I went yesterday, and they told me they still hadn't received it yet. Called again a little bit ago, and they had it for Xbox, but not PC. I think this is one I'd rather get for PC.

edit: yep, not Band of Brothers. My bad.

Isn't that Brothers in Arms?

I hadn't followed it at all, but after doing a little reading on it I'll be anxious to hear impressions. Not the typical Medal of Honor style shooter eh?

Based upon what I'm seeing here (http://www.direct2drive.com/productpages/hill30.aspx) you could expect this title to hit stores on 3/22.

I've been playing the game alot and would say that this is honestly what I expected Full Spectrum Warrior to be.

Just picked this one up for the Xbox and wow, is it fun. :)

Fry has it for $29.99.. too bad we don't have those here.

This game is a blast, my buddy & I just spent the last four or five hours alternating missions/deaths playing this game. The mix between FPS and games like Combat Mission, where you have to direct your troops intelligently is a refreshing mix for me.

Then we went online, which was pretty fun but the servers weren't too packed so there wasn't a whole lot of competition out there at this point. Situational awareness is cool in multiplayer but you can't spend too much time looking at it or you'll be killed pretty quickly because S.A doesn't pause the game like it does in single player mode (obviously)

I bought the PC version via online download. It is fun, the squads make you slow down and think. It's not like Call of Duty when you could go Rambo and take everyone on yourself. Do that in this game, and you don't last long at all.

Haven't tried multiplayer yet. The group of guys I usually link up with are still hopelessly tied to Desert Combat.
