And this doesn't look to be a "The Greatest Generation" game, which was so milked with past games, it's almost turned into a parody of it (which I feel really cheapens what they did).
So this one focuses on the less "glorious" parts of the war, the Pacific Theater and the Russian Front.
Trivia: the American troops who landed in Japan were all from the European front. No one who fought in the Pacific Theater was allowed to come. This was because the fighting was so brutal, the top brass feared some soldiers would take some kind of retaliation on the Japanese civilians. This was because similar things did happen when the Russians took Berlin, in retaliation for the brutal fighting on the Russian Front.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
