    Pros: I'm halfway through the game and am having a killer time. The characters and environments are right up there with Half Life 2 and Doom. The AI seems cool and the new medic system is brilliant. This is the first medal of honor game with a real story and surprisingly, it's making a nice difference for me, the writing seems like a movie. Cons: Loading times suck, but unlike Pros: I'm halfway through the game and am having a killer time. The characters and environments are right up there with Half Life 2 and Doom.

Cons: Loading times suck, but unlike some other games, it's worth the waiting. Multiplayer performance wasn't great but I have only tried a few servers. Overall: I'd definitley say this is the best medal of honor game yet. I'm glad I got the directors edition, even though EA didn't give me a choice, it has lots of cool stuff. Back to playing.… Expand

    I don't know what some people look for in game or if they're into the rating one game against another, but I have had nothing but fun with this game. The fighting, movies and special effects are perfect fun. The music and weapons are just plain great. Feels like money well spent to me, so I don't see a reason not to give it a 10.

    Easily the top Medal of Honor game yet. Unlike some I was disappointed with Doom 3, but thought Far Cry was the best fps to date. No more! Pacific Assault delivers from the very start and doesn't let up. Great visuals, story and sound. Just a lot of fun, period.

    I love this game it has good characteristics to it and the game brings you right back into the1940s & WW2 and it's got good life like historical meaning to it,
    it's got the exact way that the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and how the American Army fought back!! =)

    I've played the other wwii games on the PC and by far, this one has got it right. The arcade like call of duty just doesn't stand up to any part of Medal Of Honour. Loading times left something to be desired, so I'm removing one point for that. Otherwise, good show.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is set in the rather unworn Pacific Theater. Unfortunatley that is - along with some other minor things - the probably only Pro I was able to set against a lot of Cons.

    Other things I liked: The medics are a welcomingly different approach to actually have yourself starting to manage the pleas for help and/or decrease the number of suicidal charges during a level. Usually I put on a certain number of those with the reassuring fact in the back of my head that there will be a med pack somewhere after. In MoHPA it either won't or will be very seldom.
    The tense atmosphere in the last campaign, the taking of Tarawa.

    The longer list of things I hated:
    The Graphics are outdated even for a 2004 release. I know there's a huge debate going on between players of Call of Duty and MoH about which franchise is better. In terms of graphics I would like to take side for CoD. Even the first 2003 release of CoD looks more decent than MoH. On a plus side CoD will support custom screen resolution and ratio settings (though through horrible textfile support), while MoHPA can be played 1600x1200, 4:3 max which looks you are fighting the Imperial Army of Curiously Short and Fat Japanese Men. There are some 16:9 resolutions supported but these being way below 1600x1200 resolution leaves you - using a big 16:10 display - fighting the Imperial Army of Japan (8bit Divisions). The choice which atrocity bothers you less is at least yours.

    The team AI is horrible. I simply gave up at a certain point trying to make them do something helpful and started to take care of every single thing by myself. Though I am aware that this is what I'm supposed to do as a player, I've had other shooters where my team mates would follow scripts that would at least be helpful to some extend. Let me give two examples of why fighting with the badass marines of MoHPA and being out on a bicycle ride with a bunch of retarded chimpanzees is not of noticable difference: If an attacking Hiroshi Japanimoto takes cover behind a tree or a crate, he is henceforth regarded as 'dug in'. This will be heralded every 10 seconds, leaving you to decide which of the 'fortified' infantry positions really need attention and which can be resolved by let's say throwing a coconut, toothbrush, some cotton pads or stepping one pace left and then shoot.
    Another heavily utilized tactic is to avoid attacking enemies by turning one's back, standing still and taking one for the team/country/the little green man in the head with the bare back. I saw this dumbassery on at least two different situations and then I had to stop because my tears of anger were putting out my second keyboard. This not only binds useful medic resources, it also puts Uncle Sam in a very bad light for telling a bunch of looneys to be a well-trained special task force. From this point on I spent the rest of the game not only securing all 12 hour positions of our platoon, taking one pace at a time but saving the game after every damn taken coconut tree for whatever stupidity one of the guys might come up with next (Note: I did not see one of them juggling birthday cakes on a unicycle but was expecting that every minute)

    The person who designed the flying levels needs to be put in a special place if he ever comes to game designer's hell. To be frank: I am not a huge fan of those vehicle levels regardless what shooter I am playing but if I have to do it, please let me do it in a way that does not leave me loosing all hopes of humanity and with an urge to stomp a kitten to death. First of all: The Mouse controls the plane instead of the obvious and well-functioning WASDs, which are set to control the rudders. Something you don't need to use in the entire level. The mouse controls are inverted (pulling the mouse back, lets the plane dive while pushing it forward will make it climb) and the plane itself behaves like a flying a box of oranges that where shot out of an diarrheic elephant's behind. Only worse. Also I encountered this nice glitch at the end of the mission when I was supposed to fly back to base and did not immediately joined my two (did I mention useless?) wing men but flying one more yaw roll, only to find myself being automatically drowned to death after some erratic radio messages, asking what the heck I was doing there. I was not expecting to be able to radio that I follow moron squad to the next waypoint but am for reasons of questionable game mechanics suddenly some 40 miles behind them, but I was also not expecting to be forced to play this motherlode from the last save point again. Fortunately (see above) I was already saving every flight mile at that point, but others should be warned.

    The last level itself suffers from the same illness a lot of last levels do: They are too short and way too easy. I don't wanna spoil too much on it, but basically letting a battleship do all the work does not justify the build up all other Tarawa Missions do beforehand.    … Expand

    I am playing the GoG Version and have no technical problems so far on a win 7 system: it is working and I dont need to wait long for loading the game or a save point.
    The campaign is very interesting, because there is a lot of action and it shows the world war on the pacific side and not the boring western Europe side.

The first mission on the beach and Pearl Harbor are perfect, but later the game is only good, because the AI is not good. Anyway the gameplay is good, I like the health regeneration system, where you can call the medic anytime, but you can call him only 4 times per sequence.

    Of course you need to know that the story is US propaganda and it lacks extremely important background information, for example that the attack on Pearl Harbor was known by the US government and they did nothing, because they wanted to sell a good reason to the people to join the war. In addition the reason of Japan to attack USA was not perfidiousness like Roosevelt told in his speech. Japan was cut off crucial resources by the blockade of US and they were forced to attack.

    There are other flaws also: The characters and the dialogues are boring. The game should show more background information about the war in my view.    … Expand

The graphics are alright for the time, with some especially good particle effects, shaders, and water. However, textures are fairly muddy and low-res. Like most Medal of Honor games, it has excellent music. Environments are all jungles and villages with no variety, but maps are big and can be fun and tense to explore and fight in. The worst thing about this game is the loading screens... even on a modern machine (8 core CPU, GTX 760) loading screens take several minutes. They happen every level and every time you die, and its absolutely infuriating.

    Overall, its not terrible, but its terribly mediocre. MoH is one of my favorite series, but this is definitely a weak entry.    … Expand

    2) Characters are boring and uninteresting. Typical heroes of Hollywood action movies, which the four of them can endure an entire army, simply because they are very tough (in the bad sense of the word).
    3) Stupid AI. Stupid cannon fodder, which instead of firing, rushes at you with a gun at the ready.
    4) Monotonous gameplay, which is only sometimes diluted by missions by type of aircraft or cars. The rest of the time you run from point to point and try to stay on this point the only one alive.
    5) Catastrophically small variety of weapons. I can recall only 5 types of weapons (not including pistols and artillery), which could be used constantly. For a shooting-oriented game, this is not enough.    … Expand

    Not to mention that the game runs like **** on modern systems. It's unfair to score old games for their performance on today's PCs, but this takes the cake. Crashing on startup, crashing during gameplay, crashing every time during a certain scripted event (had to use the console to skip this level). Very often some game-breaking bugs occur like a door not opening when it's supposed to, or a soldier not following you.

    I own the game on Origin, but I had to apply a cracked exe to get it to work on widescreen and fix a bunch of other game-breaking stuff because the original exe doesn't allow any modifying. So basically, zero support from Origin for this game.

    The only good feeling I got from all this is when I finally got to delete it. Aahhhhh yes.    … Expand

    I don't like this game. It's really bad when we compare with Call of Duty series.
    Game's AI is really bad.
    I know this game is old.
    My vote is 3 for this game.

Добавлена какая то перевязка которая останавливает кровь но не восстанавливает здоровье. Почти все сумки со здоровьем куда то убрали зачем это было делать. Так же есть убогая миссия на корабле где тебе надо отбить авиа налет при этом расстреляв где то 100 самолётов.… Expand

    An average game from an average development team. It is obvious that EALA has neither the creative vision nor elementary skill level required to create an interesting and compelling FPS. A few

    This is no game, its a movie, you think ur gonna play an exiting game after a screen load and ur ready to fire up then u end up watching a movie for minuts which u can't skip (maybe there is a tweak to it but i dunno) . i know its a ww2 moment recreater type game but the guys at EA got too creative about it and spend alot of effort on the gameplay music (which is very annoying) and This is no game, its a movie, you think ur gonna play an exiting game after a screen load and ur ready to fire up then u end up watching a movie for minuts which u can't skip (maybe there is a tweak to it but i dunno) . i know its a ww2 moment recreater type game but the guys at EA got too creative about it and spend alot of effort on the gameplay music (which is very annoying) and forgot who they were making the game for.. i mean any one or most people who buy a FPS game or any other action game expect to blow up things and do things they can't do in real life,and u end up suffering from lack of freedom in this game , and whats with the personalities of the game characters they are very soft and nice soliders.... solders are supposed to be aggresive like the ones in farcry hehe.. and i dunt believe they were that nice in the real life ww2. EA some how seems to have made the game for the actual ww2 heros, i'm talking about the 80-90 year old men that fought these battles,, not teens or midage gamers, and its defenately not for kids (M rated). this will be the first and last game i buy from EA.. I even prefer Code name eagle than this,, if any one still remembers that game. the graphics isnt that bad.. but they are not that good either and saying that i mean i dunt understand why its has bad framerates when i set every thing of graphics in the config as low as possible, i have a very good comp and farcry and other games fly on it. i'm giving this game 2/10 just for the story telling and music of it and not game play.… Expand

    It was fun at first but starting with the plane chapter and continuing with the last chapter it started putting me off. Plane flying and shooting mechanics are trash even for the time the game was released, and in the last chapter the game leaves the player in the middle of D-Day with only 12-23 HP. Overall, its not even worth playing, devote your time to at least "playable" video games.

    On ne va pas se mentir, les Medal of Honor, ça a toujours été un peu de la merde ; il ne s’agissait après tout que des con-currents plus ou moins (très) cons des Kevin of Duty annuels de chez Activitron mais démoulés par EA, la bien nommée WCE (Worst Company Ever).

    Mais tout de même, j’avais envie d’essayer celui-là, le « Batailles du Pacifique » puisqu’il traînait sur l’étagère depuis    On ne va pas se mentir, les Medal of Honor, ça a toujours été un peu de la merde ; il ne s’agissait après tout que des con-currents plus ou moins (très) cons des Kevin of Duty annuels de chez Activitron mais démoulés par EA, la bien nommée WCE (Worst Company Ever).

    Mais tout de même, j’avais envie d’essayer celui-là, le « Batailles du Pacifique » puisqu’il traînait sur l’étagère depuis un moment. Je crois bien qu’aucun Medal of Honor ne marche sur les systèmes 64 bits, alors je l’ai installé sur ma vieille babasse sous le Windaube XP, pensant naïvement que… qu’il marcherait ?! que nenni, mon bon, que nenni !

    Pas le choix pourtant, puisqu’il ne marche certainement pas sur les systèmes plus anciens (95/98, ME et consorts…). Et pourtant, j’ai un paquet de vieilles merdes sur cette config qui marchent… très bien ! mais déjà évidemment, quelque chose cloche puisqu’arrivé au menu principal, aucun son, que dalle… après avoir tout testé, aucun choix ne lui convient : pas de son, ducon !

    Très logiquement, si l’on peut dire, le jeu charge le premier niveau de la campagne… puis revient au bureau parce qu’il s’en bat les couilles, en fait. Peu importe la résoluton choisie, il s’en bat les balloches, on te dit ! ah j’adore le PC et ses sales jeux de merde qui marchent pas, j’adore ! Mais bon, de toute façon, j’ai rien loupé a priori et puis, il n’a qu’à aller se faire enculer après tout : moi aussi, je m’en bats les couilles, soldat !    … Expand

    The most disgusting part of all that I've ever played (given the version with PS). The game is so bad that I couldn't believe it, but no bright point was not for the entire game, the gray and gloom.

    If there had been more variation on mission type, enemy AI hadn't cheated, and the feel of the weapons had been more solid, the gameplay could have lived up the awesome presentation value that the rest of the package promised.

    It's got frenzied action, a thoughtful storyline, and gameplay that will swallow you whole.

    Perhaps it's because after countless other games, particularly Call of Duty, those once magnificent scenes of senseless destruction no longer have the impact they once did. Scripted sequences have perhaps gone as far as they can go with these games.
