Now I'm not sure if they have it for you consolites out there since I game on the PC, but if you like WWII based FPS games you should really check out the Brothers in Arms series from Gearbox/Ubisoft...while the original MoH and CoD pioneered the genre, along with a few mods for other games, the BoA series is very impressive...graphics are good and you control your squad(s) to suppress the enemy or flank them, etc...

Worth looking into...trust me...

Oh and I agree...would love to see a WWI FPS game (which some are being developed btw)...the closest thing to it was a game called Iron Storm in which WWI never ended and you start the game 50 yrs later around 1964, using both WWI weapons as well as more modern ones...

Iron Storm is a first-person shooter computer game first developed by 4X Studios and Kylotonn and published by Wanadoo Edition and DreamCatcher Interactive in 2002. A remixed version of the game called World War Zero was later released for the PlayStation 2 and PC. Set in an alternate history in which World War I never ended, the game takes place in 1964, the 50th year of the war, and focuses on an Allied soldier's mission to stop the Russo-Mongolian Empire from developing nuclear weapons and his later efforts to end the war.


Iron Storm displays a mix between World War I siege tactics, such as trench warfare and the use of mustard gas, and some World War II-style weapons such as machine guns, mortars, tanks, and missile launchers of that era, as well as more contemporary technology such as helicopters, wireless communication, spy satellites, anti-personnel mines, and unmanned turrets
