i agree. that sounds more suitable.

I just downloaded the demo. WOW this game is seriously bad. Mercenaries 2 definitely is better then this garbage. The graphics are just horrible to look at, the controls and voice overs are horrible as well. Why did gamespot give this game a 8.5? did they do it based on how much money they got? i just dont get it...ReaperV7

Wow, what a stupid statement. My guess is that you havent played either Mercs 2 or BIA HH beyond their demos. Mercs 2 was a mess. I bought BIA HH today, and it is excellent. That demo is nothing compared to the atual game.

I agree with you buddy. I was looking forward to this game.... until I played the demo! OUCH! What a let down.ALF0NS0A

Its a demo!!! Its a small part of the game. There are tons of demos that suck and the final product was awesome.

Resistance comes to mind regarding this.

People should think of demos as first impressions - it's possible for a great person to make a bad first impression, and it's the same with games. Even though the devs will obviously try to put their best foot forward when creating the demo, it may still give a bad impression when the full game is good. Sometimes, it's difficult to pick what to include in the demo, and obviously, some devs just don't get it right and end up with a bad demo for a great game.

hmmm so i wasnt the only one who didnt like the resistence demo....so the game is better than the demo?

the graphics were very good imo.

maybe you're tv sucks. the textures looked great- for example the buildings and windmill and the weapons are great, i really like the cover system, and the mg42 is killer man you can pick it up and mount wherever you want.

so for everyone parading that this is 'just a demo! try the full game!" .. how is a person supposed to react when they try a demo and its horrible? jump up and go buy the game? no.. why would you? you just had a bad experience with something and there's no way you would then consider ponying up 60$ for more of that...

i blame this fallacy on production companies that release demos for games they are trying to get people to buy. if they cant release a good demo that intrigues and draws me towards a purchase, why should i give them 60$ and their horrible POS a chance.

Call of Duty 4 makes BIA look like a cartoon.

Seriously, what is with this constant hard-on that these devs have with WW2? Okay, we get it. America kicked ass then. But I think CoD4 proved that modern warfare is quite a bit more engaging.codezer0

Or make the demos so short you feel the same as before you started.

I've met plenty of people here who disliked the demo and liked the full game. It's also worth noting that I haven't met anyone who thought that the game wasn't much better than the demo leads you to believe.

The demo just throws you into two random battles out of context and with very little backstory and only 5 out of the ~15 (give or take 1-2) available weapons in the full game.

In the full game, you get: a fleshed out story, plenty of variation in battles and enemies, co-op, offline splitscreen multiplayer, and the expansive and lag-free online multiplayer.

The only way in which the Resistance demo is truly representative of the full game is regarding the controls. Everything else is much better in the actual game and I strongly recommend that you at least give a rental before you write it off.

However, just be cautious that the first several levels of the campaign are by far the worst, so don't give up on it if you find it to be boring at the beginning - it will get much better and the end is awesome.

what he said

the game its very good better of mercenaries2 CTR360

Completely different games however while with Mercenaries 2 the bugs was there and at times wrecked the experience of game BIA:HH does have moments where graphically it's not great and the IA of both your team and the Nazi's sometimes could be compared to a ret**ded blondes with taking cover ect.

BIA's main strong points are the story, the narrative could have been taken from Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers, and when your team mates are not being stupid is the tactics of flanking and the covering system is equally as great as say Gears of War or even Rainbow Six: Vegas

However myself if I had £40 to spend on either BIA or Mercs I would be finding myself picking up BIA every time. It's far more polished than Merc's was and could ever be

awful game. it looks bad, plays worse, and i would feel like a failure if i had that in development for as long as they have. i've always respected the bia series but damn, this game is pitiful. theres horrible game design choices around every corner in that title.

next time gearbox decides to open their mouths about how great they are, maybe they should make sure they can back it up...

I love the gameplay. I played the demo about 3 times and still wanna play. Im thinking of getting it down the line,but I have a question. Do you need to play past games to understand the story and does the game keep the team based gameplay thoughout the game?finalfantasy94

you are right when i downloaded the demo i put it on easy in like 10 shots from the germans i died and so did all my teammates. It is nothing like the other brothers in arms and it doesnt deserve an 8.5.

O yeah and can you guys help me with something really quick. I just got a PS3 3 days ago and i put up my PSN Id with the trophies in my sig and i got like 6 Trophies in warhawk and the ID in my sig wont update. Can you guys tell me why it wont update Please.:?

So what you're saying is you want the game to have an "Unbelievabley Easy" setting? Just because you're terrible at a game doesn't mean the game is terrible. If you died that easily on easy you need to find a different hobby.

The full game is really good... the graphics are decent, but not top-of-the-line. I'd compare them to RSV when that first came out versus industry-leading graphics (at that time) like Gears of War or whatever. They're kindof all over the map though... some parts of the game I was like "Wow, look at that..." and others I was like "Yuck!"

The only problem I really have with BIA is that the controls are stiff and the game has a million glitches. None of them gamebreaking or whatever, but you could tell there was a deadline on this game and the suits were getting impatient.

Still, the game isn't awful. I'm on the second-to-last level and I'd give it an 8.

What he said :)

I got the game on 360 and the only real beef i have with it is that the pop-in is just ridiculous, its extremly repetitive (and not in a fun way) , and some times the directions your bullets take make non-sense what so ever.

If i had to give it a score i'd go with IGN's 7.5, a 8.5 is way over the top, GameSpot have given other games, way better games, lower scores.
