”Not even hell must stop the First Division!” - Major General Terry Allen

The story of a soldier, deeper than anything you saw before ...

The advance of the First Infantry Division of the US Army has a place among the legendary events of military history. In the role of a simple private serving in the ”Big Red One”, with the emblem of that traditional unit on your sleeve, you now experience this famous chapter of the Second World War.

From the beginning, when you and your comrades live through your baptism by fire at the landing in Normandy, the game features an adrenaline pumping cinematic realism that does not gloss over the hardships of war, but also makes the developing closeness among the small group of soldiers felt. Yes, you will suffer casualties - but losing is not an option! An intelligent AI reacting sensibly to changing combat situations, individual characters and a continuing storyline all serve to make the ”guys” from the ”Fighting First” something more than random polygon models. Combat missions in Italy, France, Belgium and Germany give you an idea of the vast stretch of historical places of war, while the astounding soundtrack assaults your ears with grenades, machine gun fire and duelling fighter jets.

To friends of network and LAN games, Call of Duty 2: Big Red One offers intensive team-based multiplayer action online for PlayStation 2 and Xbox, Axis versus Allies.

Press Notes about
Call of Duty 2: Big Red One
12.01.2006
www.4players.de
"The action is accompanied by rather monotonous menu music and a lot of very good German voice recordings."
January 2006
PlayZone
"(...) The orchestral notes match the action on the battlefields perfectly and, like the speech, are of the highest quality."
05.12.2005
www.gbase.ch
"The synchronisation is also among the best in video gaming history."
21.11.2005
www.gamezone.de
"Of course, the soldiers' realistic movements are solely down to the motion capturing technology, but especially when your comrades are standing in a group nearby and chatting, they're no longer far removed from real actors. This convincing impression is achieved thanks to the excellent localisation. (...) The mood among the young troopers of the "Big Red One" is largely generated only by the excellent sound, which brings it across to the other side of the screen in a believable manner. (...) Fantastic localisation."
