Bro-Mos." That's how Gearbox is referring to "brotherhood moments" in Hell's Highway, the third entry into the critically acclaimed Brothers In Arms franchise. These aren't canned, scripted moments of cheese that we've seen in other games, mind you. This is dynamic brotherhood. For instance, you can order one of your fire squads to hop over a wall and take cover across the street. Well, every now and then, one of those soldiers may trip and fall and one of his buddies will rush over, help him up, give him a pat on the behind, and continue bounding across the street. There are dozens of bro-mos that occur randomly throughout the game adding to the realism, the character-driven and emergent gameplay that BIA is known for.
