Flying into Dallas, the plane bucking back and forth through the cloud cover, I felt like I was heading into a war. "Somebody wake up Nick," the sergeant/flight attendant said, her monstrous afro swaying in the turbulence. I wasn't so much asleep as I was closing my eyes in silent prayer. The ready light above me blinked on with a soft tone. Up front I could see the rest of the squad checking their gear and preparing for the drop. The pilot warbled a brief announcement, letting us know that the weather at our LZ was a dry 80 degrees. Seat-backs and tray tables went up, luggage rolled out, and I made landfall. It was a short march from there to Gearbox Studios, where I had a hands-on look at the newest offering from their flagship series, Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway.
