It's a pretty good game. I played the PC version though and I've been a big WW2 first-person shooter fan since Medal of Honor: Allied Assault first come out for the PC. Another really good game of the same genre is Brotherhood in Arms. The first one (Road to Hill 30) is pretty sweet but the second, most recent one (Earned in Blood) is much better. Unlike the CoD games where you basically "rambo" yourself to finish missions, in either Brotherhood in Arms you actually are able to give commands to your squadmates to give you more of a tactical feel in the game. The best thing is that the tactical aspect of the game does not interfere with the intense action that's happening during a mission. The game designers did an incredible job on this. So basically you've got different ways to approach a scenario like what would you do and what orders would you give your squad if you get pinned down by a german sniper or machinegun nest? Brotherhood in Arms: Road to Hill 30 should be cheaper now for the XBox since the new one, Earned in Blood, is already out.
I dunno 'bout "Big Red One" but Call of Duty 2 on the 360 is something else, graphics to die for at 60 FPS, one of the most immersive FPS for a long time in my opinion.

Call Of Duty 2: Big Red One is a great game. Personally I'm a big fan of WWII shooters and this one is no exception. I haven't gotten myself an X-box 360 but I'm going to get Call Of Duty 2 for the PC and I want to play Earned In Blood, the first Brothers In Arms didn't do much for me.
I like those all those games, but I go for realism. Operation Flashpoint is one of the most realistic games out there for the PC. Don't bother with the Xbox version though, as it pales to the PC version. The damn game is so realistic, that Bohemia Interactive got a contract from the USMC to create a custom made simulator for training purposes. The new game is being created now as we speak. In the meantime, they have a new game coming out called Armed Assault. It looks pretty bitchin. I wanna get this once I upgrade my PC.
