There are a few issues with Big Red One (particularly a slow trudge through the Africa campaign and spots of truly artificial intelligence), but fans of the series will find it enjoyable, intense, and an improvement over earlier chapters. For everyone else, it's a temporary wartime distraction. The Big Rent One, perhaps.
