At least the console version (i.e. Xbox 360) turned out to be very good after all. Maybe that turned out so good because they prioritised the console versions? Hopefully I won't be getting constantly snagged on scenery this time round like in COD 3! :O

Whatever, I'm happy with the fact that it is good... I'm even looking forward to playing it now that the weight have been lifted off my shoulders by the positive reviews. Shame about the lousy A.I. and the respawn points but I guess you can't have everything.

How can you not support SLI in a pc game from release?

I know its not out over here but surely they realised that many gamer pc's have 2 graphics cards in them? Its about 3 years since it went properly mainstream so its not like its a brand new thing, so they should have developed it correctly in the first place.

Could the developer also write a patch that includes British troops in this and every other WWI/WWII game?

The Americans are single-handedly erasing the fact that it was the British that held back the Germans for more than 4 years, before they jumped in with their gong-ho style army tactics and money to payroll the rest of the war.

I can appreciate that British soldiers are featured, here and there, but could we HAVE THEM IN THE TRAILERS as well sometimes?!

I also appreciate that they weren't involved in all battle theatres but by golly, at this rate, our children/grandchildren will not even realise that the Brits actually were in it WAY LONGER than the Americans and indeed fought most of the wars almost single-handedly!

I like all these games, don't get me wrong, but there should be a more fair portrayal of the contribution made by ALL allies.
