    I rate this title on for age 16 and give it 5.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence

    Safe for older teens, depending on how sensitive they are to violence

    It's a very fun game that requires leadership and teamwork to win. you have to utilize your squad and their abilities for you to win the game. The game is very gorey. Limbs are blown off, headshots typically leave the body with large holes in the skull with somewhat noticeable brain matter or in some cases partial decapitation leaving only the jaw behind. the gore can be turned off. Language is prominent, but not gratuitous. there is one sexual joke in which a soldier says to the player who is standing up after getting knocked down, "you spend more time on your back than Paddocks sister." but that's about it. as for the quality, the gameplay is fun and approachable, story telling is amazing and comparable to band of brothers, voice acting is fantastic, and the graphics are greatly detailed.

    Brothers in arms hells highway what ages?

    Well i just bought my son B:HH(Brothers in arms hells highway ) and he seems to really enjoy it but after two day I saw how much gore there was and mature speaking. Now I took the game away a bit and did some research and found out about the mature setting on the game where you can turn off the mature gore and speaking. After that I have approved that my 12 year old son can play B:HH(Brothers in arms hells highway )

    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence

    Great looking!

    A great looking WWII shooter that is extra bloody. If you get a headshot or hit someone with granades, it goes into slow motion and shows it in graphic form. (granades and large explosions have bloody affects like people getting blown in half and blood flies everywhere)(someone is seen with his intestins all over the ground and is very gross and graphic)

    I rate this title iffy for age 13 and give it 5.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence
    • Inappropriate language

    • My highlights are:
    • Educational
    • Easy to play

    Brothers in arms is a very historical game. This game made me want to research more on world war 2 which is a good thing. First of all this game is violent. It is normal to see people get ripped to shreds int his game or see people getting there head shot in a gory image. This game does show what war was probaly like to these heroes of world war 2. The game faces problems and drama that all have to do with how the war effects people. Overall this game is violent but it has a excellent story and shows how war is.

    Grusem,swears alot but it is quite funny!

    Great game, yeah, its quite gory with Slow-mo headshots and parts all over the place but i found it funny! In one of the 1st scenes, The main charictor crashes his jeep and he needs to explain to his leader. But his crew behind him are making funny noises and saying things like "Oh no, take cover" and "Oh no, its going to explode, oh no! no no noooo!" So it made me giggle. Me and my dad play on it alot together and personly dont think its as bad as everybody is saying! 12+ from me!

    Explicit, Graphic, and not a very good all around game.

    The game's title gives it all away. As you deal with constant waves of enemies, you will encounter graphic depictions of severed limbs, half blown off heads and other gore. The game will actually go into slow motion as your enemies are ripped apart by grenades and other explosives.
