The first review of the PC version of Brothers in Arms is out, and there are high marks all around. IGN.com offers up a 9.1 rating, and this closing paragraph sums up their take:

Like most of us here at IGN, I’m still a huge fan of Call of Duty and Battlefield 1942. While those games have their own unique strengths, Brothers in Arms takes some of the best features of each and adds an entirely new tactical dimension. Offering up engaging, squad-based battles and presenting it all in an authentic yet undeniably cinematic setting, Brothers in Arms is a game that, to borrow a phrase from General Patton, “grabs you by the nose and kicks you in the ass.”

Fedex.com reports that my copy arrived in the Atlanta sort facility last night, so there’s gonna be some Nazi-killing on the ol’ XPS 2nite!
