Just watched a 15 minute demo video (with commentary) of the new BiA games on the IGN website...bloody hell. They've *really* improved the AI on this one. I nearly jumped out my chair when the Germans they were attacking counter-attacked and managed to corner the player, before later on turning a big cannon to take out the house he was hiding in - totally unexpected. It just looks the nuts. A complete set of nuts. Massive nuts with bells hanging off them.

Heh, I know what you mean.
I seem to get to a point on a level and I can't find a way round what I am supposed to do. The problem with the first one was the enemy AI, for most parts of the game there was only one strategy you could us, hopefully this sequel will allow for a litle bit of leaway(sp?).
The MP is now dire for the original due to the lack of players, but I have decided to start playing the SP again tommorow.

Whats the full name of the game?
This is supposed to have online co-op as well, should be good.
I bought the first game a few weeks back but still haven't managed to get around to playing it.

Full Spectrum Warrior is very similar but I prefer it.
Have you played that yet? I want to try it online, hurry up

I do that too. I love it, it's probably the best console war game, but it somehow seems like an effort to play.
I just sort of stopped playing the first game, don't know why.
Looks great, I've still got to complete the first one. I really hope that they improve the LIVE gameplay a hell of a lot.
Did anyone else notice that on the IGN BiA:EIB frontpage this is says:
"Earned In Bloob"

Hilarious "funny", or hilarious "vietnam flashback shaking on the floor in the street"?
Looks good, it does.
The retired US army guy's hilarious on that video clip.
