We were soldiers once...

Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30™, Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood™, and Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway™ are now available DRM-free. Get all three together 75% off or individually for 50% off each, until January 25th, 2pm UTC. Check all deals here.

With emphasis on cover and squad tactics, this classic tactical/FPS series is one of the few striving for historical accuracy without sacrificing cinematic action. The heart-pounding action, gritty heroics, and engaging gameplay bring some of the most gruesome battles of WWII to life in spectacular fashion.

Instant buy. A fantastic set of games, and a reminder of when Gearbox was great, before Randy Pitchford lost his way the company turned into the broken laughingstock they are now.

WOOOHOOOOOO!!! I honestly couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw Hell's Highway being discounted and showcased on GOG's main page! THANKS!!!

Thank you GOG.com

Are the enemies bullet sponges but YOU get killed by a single hit on high difficulty?

Good to see more Ubisoft released games here but am personally totally uncertain about these.

I played Hell's Highway on the 360 in the day, and I can tell you, it's the real deal.

tfishell: I actually tweeted Ubisoft Support about Desert Siege and Island Thunder not being here, and here's the response:

"Hi there! We don't determine which items are available on that site, though this would be something you could reach out to them for assistance with, or to suggest :)"

It's polite but I have a hard time believing GOG would be the hold-up on these items not being here.
I don't. Sounds like par for GOG course to me.

I just played an hour, my first with Hill 30 in a long time. My recommendation is just don't play on high difficulty. The enemies aren't bullet spongy. If you don't get a direct hit, they will push on. A head shot or torso shot will put them down.

And later Far Cry games, perhaps?

The only shop Desert Siege and Island Thunder is now available is Steam. Even on their own Ubisoft store Desert Siege and Island Thunder isn't available for purchase, only tha main first Ghost Recon game. I think, there is some big problems with release of this expansions even for Ubisoft store.

There us only one problem: to unlock all parts of extras you will need to complete game on maximum difficulty. On easy you will unlock only 1/4 of them. And no, you can't pay to unlock them. Good old games where only your skill matters... :)

BUT! If in the first game you create new profile called "Matt Baker" - you will have every extra unlocked for this profile. :) Then you can change back to your original profile and continue playing. For Earned in Blood there is the same trick, but instead of "Matt Baker" create profile called "2ndsquad". :)

Yes, especially with the release of Far Cry 3 Classic where all online parts of the game was removed. :)

Isn't it "Bakersdozen" to get all the extras? They're worth unlocking but screw playing on hard. The game is tough as is lol.

Nice release. Finally.

Bought these games.

musteriuz: Well, that was nasty! Before I could complete my bundle purchase, the price increased by $2... At -75% it was $1.41 for the first two and $2.83 for the other, now it's $2.49 each. And I just thought I would get a digital backup for my store copies, but that blew it.

Cymepa: I just clicked the link "buy all series for 9.97" but during checkout I noticed that the price was reduced to 5.07 euros only. (GOG was also kind enough to give me an additional 0.30 cents in-store credit). Are you sure you clicked the correct link to put them all in the basket at once instead of adding them one-by-one?
Cheers!
I'm sure.

The bundle is hella cheap...
I think I know what people will say, but should I grab these?

I do like shooters in general. Never played a squad tactics shooter though.
