The first WW II game for the Xbox 360, it certainly sets standards.
As for the gameplay, its simple yet effective. The 360 controller suits this game perfectly with the triggers. It can be a little furstrating first time you play but within and hour or two your shooting headshots naturally. It really does put you into the second world war, allowing you to play as the allied forces. In tanks and on foot its a pleasure to play.
This game will keep you playing for a while, you will want to finish the war on hard mode! The sounds are realistic, although the shouting out from other members of your army can get repetitve after you have heard 'Kill those facists' more than 50 times in one mission. The patriotic music after you have completed a mission makes it feel worth it.
Overall an addictive first person war shooter, which is realistic although does have a few flaws, but the multiplayer and online mode really do make this one of the 360's must have games for launch.
