    Medal of Honor is still the king of WW2 games. but this one is still playable.

    I'm more of the type of person who likes a runnin, guns blazin, shoot-em-up game, so this game didn't do much for me. It was still entertaining, though. I didn't follow the storyline completely, but I guess it is OK. It's rentable. But I still feel that they didn't use weapons, or vehicles enough. Needs more explosions!!!

    I remember it being extremely confusing. Me and my friends could not figure out where to go, what to do, etc. We gave up at some point.

    A chance to slap James Garner silly would have been a really nice touch. [Aug 2003, p.32]

    The AI isn't very good in most games but in this game it's pathetic.

    The motivation that drives the movie is life - staying alive. Should the game have adopted a one-life-only policy, meaning that if you're killed it's game over, it would immediately result in more tension.
