The color really worked to this game's advantage, especially as the story progresses until the world literally looks like a fiery inferno hellscape. Those early missions, I think by design, really was to lure people into thinking "oh maybe this war isn't so bad" and then next thing you know, it's all gone to hell...literally. Actually pretty powerful world and story telling through just visuals.

I like how this game has a limited HUD. Forcing you to focus on what's in front of you and properly assess the situation before executing commands. The way things would play out could be very different if a mini map was included with points on where you are and the enemy followed by flanking points. At that rate, you would be looking more at the map than at the battlefield trying to understand what to do. Love how similar it is to Star Wars Republic Commando but with a different theme and number of allies. Would wish if you could revive or be revived, would really add stakes to if its worth continuing the fight or risking your own to avoid losing numbers.

Apart from the above comments, it’s not hard to see why Hell’s Highway underperformed and it wasn’t because it was a bad game.

The worse part is the first two games were the beginning of Gearbox's rise to popularity and doing their own games rather than just expansions. Then Borderlands came out and was way more successful than these game and they've just sort of shit on their original fans. It's really upsetting, I feel like a worthless builder for the company I hate now.

Damn I felt that PTSD moment with Legitt from the previous games. These games really had me panic at times, running out of cover and blasting away to save a "borther". Once even killing all soldiers firing at "my brother" by some dumb luck, only to find out that the scene was entirely scripted and even though no one was shooting still, he still took bullets like Tony Montana and died while I was frantically looking around where they came from.

I remember the approach to damage in this game. As you were getting shot at, the screen turning red didn't so much represent you taking damage, as it did represent the enemy firing honing in on you. It would spike fast if you weren't in cover and more slowly if you were. Also, nice touch, sometimes close calls could happen where your helmet can get shot off.

BiA: HH was definitely the pinnacle of the series and a re-release of the original 3 in modern graphics would be amazing. I really do wish Gearbox would finish the saga for those of us who grew up on the franchise. Jarek can you do a review of the original 2 as well.

One of the most satisfying details in this game is how shell casings eject from the guns and go twirling out with little smoke streams following them. Not realistic but it sticks out to me as one of the nicest little things I've seen in a game. Combine that with the throaty bark of the BAR, the satisfying metallic cyling of the M1 Carbine,the firey ejection of the Grease Gun, and the rip of the MG42...just listening to this game is a treat. The gameplay and graphics, for me at least, have aged very well. This game manages to present a linear narrative through mostly linear levels without ever feeling linear or repetitive- even after playing the game for years, now. A sequel set during the Battle of the Bulge and the battle for Germany in early '45 is a dream I someday hope to see, even if it's only as a spiritual successor and not actually including the original characters. While the story and characters were great, this style of gameplay has been totally lost and really needs to come back. Why can't they let us run an AI squad anymore? RIP Brothers in Arms, Socom, Conflict, and older Rainbow Six...

Get close to it and the '88 recoil looks good too. Game is linear but tactics are limitless.

I remember playing Hell’s Highway but I remember Road To Hill 30 more. And I wanna go back to them, just because I remember with Hill 30 specifically I was in like 4th grade, and the squad mechanics made no sense to me. So I was like why do I keep dying??? This game is too hard!

This sounds great tbh, I love Republic Commando's squadplay, this seems like an evolution of that. Besides that I'm a huge WW2 nut but never really got into any game about the subject, so I really wanna give this a try! And judging by the title it'll take place mostly in the Netherlands, so that's a big plus, even if that civilian's accent sounded anything but Dutch :-)

The grenades blowing limbs off soldiers impressed me with the realism in its mechanics,Its a solid contender in the world war fps genre and had a solid storyline.

Hell’s Highway was the first video game I played as a teenager that told a story well enough to make me care about the story. And actually feel real emotions about fictional characters. It also made me fall in love with slow paced tactical shooters.

My god I love this franchise sooo much, I revisit it a lot from time to time and It just hurts that it was never finished ever since. I absolutely love everything about it and it's just perfect. The story, the characters, everything is just superb. I just wish that they will finish the trilogy one day.. Just like Half Life 3.... Huh, then I guess it won't happen.

As much as I love this game series, I think it might be best to leave it alone. If the next Brothers in Arms game has any Randy Pitchford drama attached to it like with Borderlands 3, that might just ruin the series for me.

I own BIA Road to Hill 30 and Hells Highway. I love them to death, while my gripe with Hells Highway is, the way they have handled the Health and Squad Systems. I enjoyed the no health regen in RtH30 and the Mortality of your team mates, where, once they are down, they won't come back until the end of the mission, which can be a long one, and that you, had no options for medics or medipacs, which gave you a sense of, 'Should I charge or not. Should I risk sending Hartsock with the rest in and get them killed or, pin the enemy and do it myself.' I love Baker and to see his investment, how he wanted to keep the promise he made to bring the boys back alive, and how they haunted him after their death, especially, the story behind Bakers 1911 which brought death to Risner and Legget, how he kept Leggets secret from the others and how it gnawed at him, until the end of Hells Highway.

There is no Health system in Hell's Highway. Get shot once, you die. The screen turning red is called Threat Effect and can be turned off in the gameplay menu. Die three times in Hill 30 and you have the option to heal everyone and reload.

You should really play Hell Let Loose. Its like Hells Highway but with real players as teammates and the voice-comms are one of the most important aspects of the game along with the squad-based gameplay. Plus, it has a nice command chain that goes from Commander to Squad Leaders to each individual player class.
