Brothers in Arms: Double Time

Brothers in Arms: Double Time is another edition of a popular first person shooter game series set in the World War II. Double Time is not an entirely new game. Instead, it combines selected parts of previously releases of Brother in Arms series. Much emphasis was also put on using innovative Wii controls.

The game features 31 levels modeled after missions from the previous games in the series. Throughout the game you interchangeably play as Matt Baker and Joe Hartsock. You command one or more soldier squads, most of the time fighting behind enemy lines. Missions are quite linear, although usually you can attack enemies from several different directions.

The game uses unusual controls system characteristic of Wii, including Wiimote and Nunchuck. The controller is used mostly for giving out orders, such as attack the target or open covering fire in order to approach enemies from a flank. These commands are issued by properly waving the controller. Aiming is facilitated by a crosshair in the center of screen.

The innovative Wii controller is also used for two other things: occasional hand-to-hand combat and throwing grenades. In the latter activity the game enters a special view, in which you can precisely direct where you want the grenade to land.
