It's pretty old. It doesn't look very good, even when compared to its contemporaries. It doesn't support widescreen displays properly. Its aiming mechanic is *very* weird, and for a first-person shooter, this particular flaw should have been lethal.

But it's good. BiA: Road to Hill 30 is still one of the best World War II shooters ever made. It also stands out from its peers in the tactical shooter genre by achieving a near-perfect balance between playability, challenge and tactical depth. It's a pity that Gearbox is now (December 2010) busy with other projects. A modern-era BiA game might just give Call of Duty and Battlefield a run for their money.
