Yup, this is definitely a screenshot. What it looks like to me is a combination of whatever "soft light" (ba dum pssssh) techniques are used in Novalogic's Joint Operations and good 'ol bloom effect ala Prince of Persia.

Impressive, I must say, especially considering Gearbox has a long history of putting out titles with mediocre graphics to servicable graphics.

No and yes... It can be used as a normal rifle but a sniper scope can be attached to it. :)

Does anyone else think that the guy in the shot (The only one whose face we can see) looks like Michael Jackson?

Graphics look awesome, but...it's ANOTHER FREAKING WWII GAME!!! God! I have gotten SO TIRED of re-hash after re-hash.
First we had MOHAA, then we had a bunch of clones of MOHAA, then we had Call of Duty, now we're getting the clones :doubt:

How many 'clones' of MOHAA can you actually name, though?  

I can't think of any offhand (and games simply also set in WW2 do not count as clones - i.e BF:1942 & Hidden & Dangerous are totally different types of game)

Well, the CoD team is to a large degree the same team that made MOHAA, they just left and formed their own company.

I'de like to see a game where the morality of it is a bit better devloped. In most WW2 games, its Allies=angels, Axis=devils. Not saying that the Axis were nice chaps, not even close, but it would be interesting to at least hear a few words from their side of the fence. Mostly, I would say  that it adults who play these games, so I'de like to see a bit more depth than that. Show the rape of Nanking, the A-bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, show the concentration camps. Show everything that happened.

Dunno about other games, but CoD never shown the axis as 'devils'.  They were just the other side - you shoot them, they shoot you.  I wouldn;t exactly call it villification.

And how many gamers wouldn't enjoy wandering through a town spraying bullets randomly and killing everyone? Hell, most of us do that whether we are supposed to or not, at one point or another, and we're supposed to be the good guys ;)
