Attention achievement hunters! Don't forget to play Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway this Thursday for the easiest achievement you will have gotten. Just for firing up the game on September 17th you will freely acquire 50 gamerscore by unlocking the "Remember September '44" achievement which commemorates the day Operation Market Garden began and thousands of paratroopers landed behind enemy lines during World War II.

The game was actually released on September 23rd back in 2008 so this will be the first time that anybody will have been able to unlock this achievement. If you don't own Hell's Highway, then now is a good time to get it as you won't have another chance to get this achievement for another year.

The game itself is a very solid shooter / strategy hybrid that is unlike any other FPS you will have played. You take on the role of Staff Sergeant Matthew Baker of the 101st Airbourne Division and throughout the game you will command squads of other soldiers in battle. Battles are described as "puzzles" that you must figure out how to solve through utilizing your various specialty squads. Trying to go through the game guns blazing like Rambo does not typically end well and Hell's Highway has been hailed as one of the most realistic shooters of this generation.

You can find the game most places for only $20 new making this one of the best deals on the 360.
