Ubisoft has released a new video detailing the lengths to which Gearbox has gone in order to ensure that Brothers in Arms Road to Hill 30, is as authentic as possible. The video describes the extent of the developer's research and also includes impressive in-game footage. As any added bonus, viewers get to watch programmers firing old firearms which in itself makes this video a worthwhile addition to your download list.
Brothers in Arms Road to Hill 30 is advertised as being based on a true story and is set during the famous airdrop before the invasion at Normandy when Sgt. Matt Baker and his squad of 101st Airborne paratroopers were scattered over the French countryside. As the story unfolds, the player (Baker) must choose between the success of his mission and the lives of his men – his brothers in arms.
