    MOH blew me away! Great story in campaign mode,a bit short, but it left me wanting even more. The multiplayer follows the Bad Company 2 style but with an arcade feel that really fits perfectly. I'm really glad to see the MOH franchise return. I can't wait for the next installments, which I'm sure will surpass this great title.

    Medal of honor is epic! Gotta love the US military! Some of the US ranger missions are the best! The Multiplayer is absolutely mind boggling! So much adrenalin! I was sweating when playing! That says something!

    Not a bad game. It does not beat Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 but it sure matches it and does some parts better. I believe the single player experience is better here. It's basically a case of clearing a sector and proceeding to the next. In COD, you have to keep on moving forward to make the enemy stop spawning which gets quite frustrating and ridiculous.

I have a problem with multiplayer. Gameplay is more tactical forcing you take cover and move carefully instead of running around like crazy in COD. But the maps are quite small and poorly designed and this results into many cases of spawn camping and raping. I believe COD still has better designed and enjoyable multiplayer maps that this one.â… Expand

    Medal of honor is the most realistic game ive ever played. The graphics, the game mechanics, and the voice overs is definitely on point. War is not run and gun situations.

    Despite this is my first review, I've played a lot of other games before, so I know what I'm saying.

It might not be the most realistic game you've ever played if you have ever played the ARMA series, but it's close enough. Since Danger Close have to impress the casual players as well, but they still manage to do a good job on that as well. did an amazing job on that. Though they should have also done MP as well.

    Multiplayer, on the other hand, was more like DICE was trying to make a MW2 ver. of BC2. But what it redeemed itself back on was the multiplayer maps and gameplay. The multiplayer uses fog to blind snipers from shooting a long range kill, making the game having less snipers, Also the gameplay and map was pretty well designed, forcing Team Cooperation without having one of the teammates to say so. If you run into a decent game, you'll find out most of your teammates are sticking together most of the time. Overall, this is a game definitely worth purchasing. It just lost 1 score the singleplayer story length and the multiplayer's lack of vehicles. But this game can take over MW2's place in your heart if you just give it a try, and you'll definitely be glad you did, even if you didn't like it in the end.    … Expand

I enjoy MP in that it is realistic as in you go from cover to cover. The play modes feel good, as there is still fronts but you can still flank. Definitely could have used a few more maps and couple of hours longer single players. I think the game was a bit of a cause of not enough time.… Expand

    First off, MOH has several bugs. Lighting can be odd at times and then suddenly fix itself, there is texture pop in at the beginning of levels in the campaign (lasts for about 3 seconds), and then there is an odd feeling to the running controls (if the left thumbstick is slightly pushed up and right, you might suddenly start strafing sideways rather than running diagonally). You'll findFirst off, MOH has several bugs. Lighting can be odd at times and then suddenly fix itself, there is texture pop in at the beginning of levels in the campaign (lasts for about 3 seconds), and then there is an odd feeling to the running controls (if the left thumbstick is slightly pushed up and right, you might suddenly start strafing sideways rather than running diagonally). You'll find most of your movement really needing to be controlled heavily by the right thumbstick in ways that many other games don't do. It's very difficult to describe, but just understand that its there.
    Now, the campaign starts off rough. To me the graphics and explosions looked okay. It certainly looked like the graphics were behind the curve of things, and sometimes even looked awful. Then it was as if I started a new level and all of my issues were gone. Suddenly the lighting in the game was incredible, and at times I found myself marvelling at how realistic characters looked due to the lighting and textures. I used to live in the Middle East for a short period of time and let me tell you, some of the background scenery (not the villages, those can seem a bit generic) were downright real looking. It truly is fun to stop for a second just to look at the marvelous visuals this game can have.
    Some transitions in scenes, or from running on foot to being in a vehicle, can be rough. Other times its smooth as butter. For all the effort EA put into immersion, I can't figure out why it is that when you turn on night vision you don't see the character reach to pull down his goggles/IR sensor. Just a thought.
    **Important** Modern Warfare 2 thrived on close quarters combat, surprises around every corner, and adrenaline in every button pressed. Here, Medal of Honor presents firefights that are medium to long range shooting. This is MORE realistic because honestly, special forces troops are stupid enough to blunder into enemies in close quarter combat 24/7 like they are portrayed to do in MW2. I found the gameplay mesmerizing and I am still loving it.
    Voice Acting = Incredible. MW2 had some decent voice acting, but the sound and voice acting in MOH blows it out of the water.
    Summary: Campaign = lots of fun, but unfortunately a lot of bugs.
    Multiplayer is still establishing itself with the community, but is largely fun. Even when getting dominated the game can still be fun. When someone gets a load of killstreaks back to back, ehhh, the game isn't as much fun. For the most part the multiplayer is a blast and with friends can be incredible. Unlock system seems like it should be a tad more in depth though, and soldier management should be more developed. Gameplay is awesome though.

    Long story short, this is a game with bugs that will almost definitely be fixed in the next MOH, but none of these bugs come close to ruining the fun experience of this game. Certain elements of scripted moments in the campaign may turn people off, but that was NOT the case for me. Rent this first and see if you like it, then buy it because I honestly am getting my moneys worth out of this game right now.    … Expand

    The sound alone is worth the time spent going through the single-player game. I really didn't see anything horribly wrong with the graphics or anything technical that can spoil the experience otherwise. The multi-player is really enjoyable once you learn the angles. It has less of an arcade feel which is refreshing. No perks or crazy kill streaks. The maps are gritty. Fun game.

    Played on the PS3. Completed the campaign and about 8 hours of online play (all modes, maps, classes).

    Vast experience with 1st/3rd person shooters (well over 2000 hours). More of a BFBC2 guy then a MW2 guy. I rate the modes: Campaign: 9 Online: 6 The single-player part of this game is great. The story is compelling. Better and longer then MW2. Better then BFBC2. Graphics    Played on the PS3. Completed the campaign and about 8 hours of online play (all modes, maps, classes).

    I rate the modes:

    Campaign: 9
    Online: 6

    The single-player part of this game is great. The story is compelling. Better and longer then MW2. Better then BFBC2. Graphics (in 720p) are somewhere in between those two games. Graphically lacks the polish of MW2 but the locales are magnificent... on par with Uncharted 2! (the best looking console game in history) It was incredible fighting in the mountains. The story is very linear, straight-forward, no nonsense. No collectibles or anything. Very theatrical. Would make a great movie.

    Multiplayer: Where do I start... First, this game WILL get a ton of patches just to get it working right. The lag was horrible. Balance is miserable. Guns have no recoil (therefore, no characteristics, no pros/cons except mag size and damage). Open mic in game but NO MIC in the "Party Lobby". Thats right... when you invite a couple of friends to your "Party" you HAVE to sit in silence until you enter the game. What? Talk about an online game requirement. Come on DICE, are you trying to sabotage the MOH name? Also, no mic between maps. Worst loading times of any game I have ever played.

    With one other member in my party, 8 times over 2 hours, we were split to opposite teams when joining a room. In 2 hours, I was booted due to server issues 5 times. Most of these issues will eventually be fixed.

    Maps/Modes: The maps look great. More realistic then any other game. MW2 is great in looks but lack some of the detail this game has. The junk in the streets and debris everywhere really add a nice touch. Game modes are all pretty standard. TDM, Rush (Attack/Defend), Capture the Flag, etc.

    Gameplay, though, is horrible. Seems like they tried to copy MW2 without just straight riping it off. The problem is, to have a game like MW2, you have to make it just like MW2 or it isn't any good. Plan to be killed instantly upon respawn at least 5 times a match. To be successful you really need to be a camper (sniper or other). Thats the only way to get a positive KDR on a regular basis. As always, if you can get 12 friends together that know what they are doing, you will to better then running with random people.

    In the ways this game is like MW2, MW2 does a lot better.

It is gritty and much more realistic, as realistic as a game can be, it is delivery of this genre. Nothing, that comes to my mind and I have been playing games since the late 70's, comes even close.

Now I am not saying that this game is perfect, it does have a few flaws. But they are minor at best. I can say that I am a little slanted in my point of view because I am not a huge multiplayer fan, as you usually end up with a bunch of people who figure out how to cheat and make that part of most gaming a joke. That being said my opinion is based mostly on the single player side of this game, so take my review for what it is worth. But if you enjoy a good solid single player game, go get this one.

I don't even know where to start when talking about the online multiplayer mode. It's like a giant step backwards in online gaming. I honestly got sick of it after only 2 days. The maps are tiny and it seems like there are only about 4 or 5 different maps. You can't really customize your character very much either, you can get some minor weapon upgrades but you can't pick what type of grenades you want or if you want to carry smoke and there are no flash bangs. The controls are sloppy and I have to jump like 10 times to make it over a tiny anthill. I would rate the online mode about 2 or 3. It also seems that everyone on this game is a sniper and half the time I die before I even take 2 steps. Plus since you need to do well to unlock weapons upgrades it actually takes experience points away from you when you have more deaths than kills. So basically you're stuck in the middle and it's nearly impossible to get to the elite weapons upgrades. I can't believe I traded in BFBC2 for this crap. That game was sooo much better online.

    If you're an online gamer I would definitely stay away from this game and if you want to just play the story mode then just rent this and you will probably beat it in a day or two.    … Expand

The multiplayer is definitely at its best in combat mission, and objective raid is a close second.

But don't let that stop you form picking it up, because you will not regret it. I give it an 8 out of 10 easy. Trust me everyone, judge it for yourself. If you want a tactical experience with a fresh look and feel get MOH, if you want a run and gun. Go with Black Ops, my type of style is more BC2 and MOH for sure. More thought behind it. Also, you Get the Beta For Battlefield 3. You really have nothing to lose. Great Game, Best FPS for sure after Bad Company 2. Enjoy every second of it.… Expand

Now the reason this game gets a 5 was Dices Lazy attempt at multiplayer there are many things i have to complain about here first and foremost is the lack of customizability. This game is pathetic with it the unlock tree had me laughing when i saw what the higher level unlocks were. One of the upper tier unlocks is the ability to use the enemies start off gun such as the ak47 or m16 which has me saying who gives a shlt since they both have the same stats. There is only like 10 guns in the game with almost little too no ways to customize them im a guy who likes to play with each gun with each attachment to see how it plays and this was not ok especially when the opposing forces guns are pretty much the same gun just reskinned to look different. Dice to me comes off as just lazy 8 maps come on i bought section 8 for 10$ on psn and it had double the maps if not more to choose to play on. In my opinion DangerClose the company who made the single player shouldn't have let dice ruin half the game seeing as the single player and multiplayer should have been done by them instead Dice crapped all over it. all in all i could of **** even more about how the multiplayer is a joke go rent it do not purchase this title if your looking for a game to sink hours on end in.… Expand

Call of Duty takes gaming and the 'one more round' concept to another level. Medal of Honor has only one way of making you play one more match: and that's to try to force you to play one more match by putting you into another game in progress, without really giving you an option. And also if you are on a team that can't seem to get any chemistry, too bad. You have no option, but to play with them over and over again until you either quit or the other members of your team do.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Being a big fan of the old Medal of Honor games, I wanted to give this game a chance and see what it was like. The story takes place in 2001 on the verge of the Invasion of Afghanistan. Throughout the game, you will play as people from the U.S Navy Seals and the U.S Rangers. Both of their storylines take place in random battles that may have happened during the occupation of Afghanistan. At the end of the game, it clearly felt that it was leading up for a sequel (Medal Of Honor: Warfighter) as one of the characters says "This is not over" while standing over the corpse of one of his fellow comrads.

    Positives
    Like any other Medal of Honor game, it focuses on one thing and sticks to it which is always a good thing
    The graphics are quite nice

    Negatives
    I do not know what it is but the guns do not seem to feel right
    Making Medal of Honor a Modern warfare game makes it feel like there are little FPS that take place in a different setting
    The multiplayer did not seem to be anything special The game lacks a story to keep people interested in playing it

The GamePlay is stifling; linear, predictable, you are led like a dog on a leash, and there are more hordes of Taliban than zombies in L4D. At least L4D has an AI Director that prevents 40 zombies from coming out of the same hut. If you are buying for the MP, fine, but if you own BC2, keep your money. You are limited in your upgrades, you have only three classes, and the weapon selection is so minute compared to MW2 and BC2 is not worth money if you are expecting a large cache of weapons, attachments, and other options. MP can be fun, but the maps are more of a corridor than a map. Enfilading fire is the only and best tactic for defense since the OpFor are forced to column into the next objective. There is little or no opportunity to flank in most of the MP modes. In summary if you like carnival shooting galleries with an American flag and "Remember the Troops" hanging on the wall then this the game for you. If you think you are going to have an one-of-kind, authentic, and compelling gaming experience, keep waiting and save your money.… Expand

    The multi-player, i found fun for the first 6 hours or so, and then found it getting boring really fast mostly down to lack of variety, there is only 3 kit choices, 8 maps and not very many weapons to choose from.

    The maps encourage a lot of camping with plenty of chock points. There are loads of players using the sniper kit online due to the camping nature of the gameplay, snipers can kill you in 1 shot even without getting a head shot, that can start to get very tedious and boring. Not knowing where your getting shot from due to no kill cam doesn't help.

Danger Close have done a great job giving us a polished game. From the intense gun fights to shooting terrorist bunkers from a chopper, all is in good fun. The sniper missions are also great. The only 2 issues I ran into on the single player is that sometimes your team would get stuck in a motion. All I did was walk up to them, whack them with a little friendly fire and they were back on the mission at hand. The second bug was that sometimes in cut scenes the audio would cut out for a second here and there. Definitely not a deal breaker. On the multiplayer, i have played for around 15 hours so far and am thoroughly enjoying it. In my own experience with the game, i find that it takes me back to the Counter-strike days. Some of the maps just have a certain feel about them. I did have drop outs the first day from purchasing the game but haven't had one drop out since then. EA must have worked on their servers.

For example you can't go stealthy or take a another way, its just way to linear, just checkpoint to checkpoint. (Stupid) game developers call it the Hollywood experience.

    I'm only commenting on the online play because I have not played the single player yet, but as far as on-line goes there are better fps games out there (bbc2!).

After 14 hours of on-line play I can say that it has some good and some bad. First the good, the graphics are sharp, and some of the landscapes are different and neat (airfield with abandoned fighters, snowy mountian regions, etc.), the detail is good and there are several pathways in some of the maps, controls are solid, and spawn times are short. Before I state the bad I will tell you that I prefer on-line shooters that have wide open maps that you can roam around in without being killed every 10-20 seconds like BBC2 or Warhawk. In some of the maps like Helmond Valley be prepared to die quickly and often, many times as you are dead moments after spawning, for me this is no fun. Many of the maps are simply too tight and too small for my taste, they feel cramped, every time you step into the open there is a pretty good chance that it will be your last step which gets to be very frustrating, the best mode is probably the Mission mode, the capture the flag mode which I like in ither games is ridiculous, the base's, flags are so close that it is more like a frag fest than anything else. While I have logged many days and hours on MOH, BBC2, and Warhawk, I'm only an average shooter, so if you are a master shooter you will probably like this game more than I do but if you like to snipe or sneak around for the suprise attack you will not enjoy this game so much. For me BBC2 is better in almost every way, if you like the smaller maps with tight corridors then I would say that MOH is the better game to play. I look forward to playing the single player game, I understand that is pretty good but for me the on-line play is what it is all about and this one is not the best.… Expand

The game play is just your average First Person Shooter but provides an enjoyable experience with a few vehicle sections to break up the on foot sections like riding on an ATV or piloting a helicopter. The on foot sections pretty much play as a shooting gallery where you just move through a linear path, shoot a bunch of enemies and move on. You'll always have some team mates fighting along. There are some neat sniping sections in the game and times where you need to use the laser designator to paint targets in the distance. The mission where you are in a helicopter and rain death on enemy villages and mortar teams provides some thrills but the game play is quite limited because it plays like an arcade on-rails shoot-em up. There's no freedom on where you can manoeuvre the helicopter other than controlling where you shoot. The weapons are nicely designed and fit with the afghan setting but provide little recoil making it a little easier to use Assault Rifles for long range encounters with the enemy. The game incorporates a little bit of stealth where you infiltrate enemy lines and try to take out the enemy quietly. The dark environments in these sections enhance the stealthy atmosphere. Speaking about the environments, the graphics are crisp and detailed although the character models look like they've been ripped off from Battlefield: Bad Company. The scope of the environments maybe huge but the game design is linear and doesn't really provide enough freedom but it's not a huge problem. One thing that this game does extremely well is that Danger Close has nailed the sound design. The radio chatter, the sound design for the guns and the explosions all help to capture the realistic atmosphere of being in the battlefield. The campaign may not be long but at least there's multiplayer. Developed by EA DICE and using the Frostbite Engine rather than Epic Games Unreal Engine 3 used for the single player campaign, multiplayer is quite fun even if it is a little bit unoriginal. I like the fact that that you can choose between 3 classes (Rifleman, Special Ops and Sniper) and customise their weapons and weapon attachments but I wish there could have been more customisation options. There aren't a lot of weapons to unlock but at least there's enough to suit anyone's play style or situation like being defensive with a sniper rifle and being aggressive with a LMG. There are a few things to unlock in this game including medals and weapon attachments which extend the lifespan of the multiplayer. As with the single player, the sound is fantastic even if it feels familiar to any gamer who's played Battlefield. The sound design makes the maps in multiplayer feel like a real battlefield with the sounds of mortar strikes splashing down and deafening you and the sound of weapon fire echoing around you. Medal of Honor plays like most FPS online games with some nice modes to play like Team Assault, Objective Raid, Combat Mission and Sector Control. None of these modes feel fresh but I guess EA DICE played it safe and just imported some of the multiplayer modes from the Battlefield series. I have nothing wrong with that though due to the fact I don't have a Battlefield game. The maps are varied in size ranging from the dense urban streets of Kandahar Market Place to the open airfield of Mazar-I-Airfield. The maps are not too big and not too small. The Support Actions are a nice addition to the multiplayer and mostly not too overpowered. I like the fact there are defensive support actions and offensive support action and gives you an interesting choice when you obtain one. Do you either activate a defensive support action so you (and your team mates) can enemy on the radar for a limited time or do you go for the offensive support action and try to get a few more kills? This game requires you to adapt to a more defensive strategy because it's a bit harder to get a kill in this game than an online FPS like Call of Duty: Black Ops; it takes a few more bullets to kill an opponent. At times, the multiplayer runs smooth and can be quite fun but I did wish the spawning system wasn't so flawed. Sometimes you can easily be spawn trapped sometimes and you continuously rank up death after death because you find yourself spawning where there's opponents or just a few seconds before a mortar strike hits the ground and kills you. Good luck trying to spawn in clear air. One funny thing I noticed is that when you get blown to smithereens by a rocket strike or Mortar Strike you just drop dead instead of blasting 50 feet into the air! One good thing about this game is that it includes Medal of Honor: Frontline to download to your hard drive but I just wished it could run the game from the actual disc itself. Medal of Honor is a nice, realistic shooter that will appeal to some shooter fans.… Expand

There are a few texture pops, but no screen tears or signs that the console cant handle the engine, so all in all it runs smoother than the bonnet of a porsche. gameplay can only be described in one word, flow. i didnt fight my way through the maps i sort of flowed through them on a tidal wave of hail and bullets. there is sometimes so much going on it becomes very easy to die. much like a real war, it can sometimes take one very strategically placed bullet from and an advantaged position and your out of the game. This is the first realistic war game that doesnt bore with realism. Whenever theres a lull in the gameplay your always entertained with the spectacular atmosphere and surroundings. this game is drop dead gorgeous, always a beauty to look at from start to finish. i dont know what the sh!t people are talking about with these reviews. I have made an account just to write this review in hopes that people wont fall for this **** thats been cracking around metacritic and most reviewing sites. those poor buggers at danger close, putting in all this effort to completely rework the war franchise and medal of honour gets put down because lets face it, its medal of honour. I havent been thrilled like this with medal of honour since the days of frontline on the ps2, storming the beaches at normandy on that first level.

At least MOH was longer than that pitiful campaign. And MOH does it a lot better. It puts you in the shoes of three different characters as they attempt to ascend the Shahikot Mountains and eliminate the Taliban threat. The game does not try to sell itself to you as an 'epic' storyline, it is simply what MOH has always done, it puts you in the shoes of soldiers within a war as you tackle objectives that would not seem out of place in real life.

    Another thing I have read complaints about in reviews was that the auto-aim does everything for you. This is true to the extent that when you pull up the iron sights and it usually will lock onto a target. Just like in all the other CoD's. CoD wanted players to be constantly using iron sights and quickly releasing and pulling the left trigger in order to lock onto targets, and it always came across as cheap and unrealistic. MOH is meant to be a game where realism is key, so yes, you can runaround CoD-like and shoot everything thgat moves with the cheap lock on tactics, or you could play it as though it mattered. Most of the time I found myself walking into buildings with the pistol drawn, and moving out of buildings with the assault rifle already in iron sights. It makes sense. Real soldiers don't shift their eyes from the scope for a second to increase their accuracy, and therefore neither should you.

    Now, I remember Yahtzee or Movie Bob (someone anyway) had a go at Hydrophobia's developers because they told everyone that they only thought it was crap because they played it wrong. The argument was that if the game doesn't do a good job of pointing out to you how to play it then it doesn't deserve that leeway. MOH however, constantly shows you your squad mates moving around with their eyes to their sights, moving slowly and checking corners. The first mission practically takes you by the hand for this process. So my only conclusion is that the haters of the auto-assist are playing it wrong. They've played too much unrealistic CoD to understand that sometimes they need to change their playstyle for new games.

    As far as graphics go, I've never cared. It occasionally looks very pretty, and seeing the mountain in the distance is wonderful. But sometimes there will be an abscence of textures and they'll take longer than usual to pop in. The scene most of you will have seen before where the goat stands up and you watch a team mate strangle an enemy was very jarring for me as the goat never loaded it's texture and as such was just a white glob smack bang in the middle of the screen.

    As far as gameplay goes, it's fun and solid. The occasional glitch may pop up, it froze entirely on one occasion and on another, I was stuck behind the team leader thanks to an invisible wall, and he was waiting for whatever trigger I was supposed to set off (and already had but it obviously missed it). Other than that I have no complaints however, it was a very solid game, even if it was a bit short, that did a fantastic job of putting you into the shoes of soldiers in their everday life. It is not an epic plot, it follows a few squads up a mountain attempting to eliminate the Taliban. It doesn't get much bigger than that for the most part, but it does do what it aims to do very well.

    As for online gameplay, I've never been big on it. But I hear mixed reviews of that too. I have to say though, I find it much more likely that the multiplayer is solid and that all the complainers are just upset that it isn't CoD.    … Expand

Does a pretty good job of showing a soldiers point of view on the modern battlefield Cons Single player    Im gonna break down exactly why you should or should not buy this game by referring to the games pros and cons


    Pros Single player
    ---------------------------
    1. Good graphics
    2. Good sound effect 3. Not too many bugs 4. A nice array of different types of missions
    5. Does a pretty good job of showing a soldiers point of view on the modern battlefield


    Cons Single player
    ---------------------------
    1. The enemy AI is not very polished, Setting it on Hard difficulty will make it a little challenging atleast.
    2. The story itself is only average at best. Don't expect to be on the edge of your seat.
    3. Story is very cut scene driven instead of being more real time like current games.
    4. The enemy does not use cover correctly(Refer to 1)


    Multi-Player Pros
    ------------------------
    1. The graphics are good
    2. The sound quality of the weapons are good
    3. Knifing an enemy is fast and usually effective and non time consuming.
    4. You can reload while sprinting
    5. The killstreaks are not automated which is nice
    6. Has potential to be an amazing online game
    7. Goes for a non arcade approach

    Now for the Cons.....

    Multi-Player Cons
    --------------------------
    1. Poor hit detection
    2. You can clearly see yourself knife or axe someone yet they do not die
    3. Sniper dominant maps
    4. Many of the maps force you to play with a very slow and campish approach
    5. Lag is very aggravating 6. The game often freezes for a few moments which at times causes you to be killed
    7. The game often freezes and you have to hard reset your system which can kill your system
    8. Explosives in this game are not realistic and have very little radius and damage
    9. Lack of guns to choose from gives you very little variety
    10. There are only 2 pistols in the game period.... boring
    11. Sniper rifles are 1 shot kills anywhere
    12. The majority of players on the game use Sniper weapons
    13. The guns lack balance
    14. The game modes lack balance such as Combat Mission especially
    15. You can't go prone online... What realistic war game doesn't allow you to go prone
    16. The aim assist often tells you that an enemy is there even through walls
    17. The aim assist practically aims the gun for you


    Single Player Score- 7 Multi-Player Score- 3 Overall Score- 5 Verdict- This game is a rental, Do not rush out and buy this game. For some people I would like to say don't buy this game at all. Rent this game first and try it then go and possibly buy it if its your type of game.    … Expand

You don't have all of those HALO players, who run around the maps, sort of willy nilly and shoot everything that moves. If you do that in MOH, you will get killed, as well you should have. The sniper mode in this game is phenomenal. The designers actually allow you to stay in the back of the map and pick off unsuspecting opponents who are lurking around or sticking their head up. Way to Go! In the new COD BO, the sniper mode sucks unless you like to run around like a chicken with your head cut off, shooting people on the run. In COD, the kill-cam makes it IMPOSSIBLE to get into a good sniper's nest and wait for people to appear. The maps in MOH make sense in that they are laid out perfectly for combat missions. AND the best thing about MOH is that you have to work together to get anything accomplished. The designers have mastered that concept. If they put out more combat mission maps, we can leave COD forever. Or at least leave it to the jump up in the air HALO players and the "side to side" combatants who win most of the faceoffs. MEDAL OF HONOR IS A GREAT GAME.… Expand

    Another game that fell victim to a lot of hype before it came out and didn't live up to its very high expectations (Considering DICE helped with the multi-player). The campaign was the best part of the game even though it was pathetically easy and extremely short (If you are decent at First Person Shooters you could dominate this game in 5 hours even on the hardest difficulty).

The campaign was the best part of the game even though it was pathetically easy and extremely short (If you are decent at First Person Shooters you could dominate this game in 5 hours even on the hardest difficulty). Graphics were up to par with Battlefield & Call of Duty but was no match versus their online play. The killstreaks wouldn't work properly and the online maps were a camper's dream. I was not a big fan of having different weapons options depending on which team you were on. Not only that but there wasn't a very big selection of weapons on the multi-player or campaign mode. This made the game boring and repetitive very quickly. I would definitely recommend renting this game and playing through the campaign. As for playing online, there are much better online FPS shooters out there at the moment (Battlefield Bad Company, Killzone 3, Call of Duty, etc.) that you should dive into before touching this one.… Expand

About the campaign, it gives you a fresh experience on a new battlefield, and the environment is very fulfilling as it shows a new perspective. The movements of the AI are very professional, and the sound is great as well. The missions are engaging and each one is different than the last, with different landscapes. Its different because you get missions where you're undercover, and missions where you are an all out ranger. The most disappointing, if only, thing about the campaign is its length. I was shocked to see that I finished the game on Hard as well on the second day of play time. It was really disappointing, and kept me wanting more. If you guys like following games like I do, I feel that you would be disappointed as well, since the game ends at a point where you just have to have more action. The multi player amounts nothing to COD style, and hands down, the COD mechanism is way better. The game play becomes increasingly repetitive. It is extremely rewarding to get the kill streaks, although they are all the same, but thats if you manage to get it by hiding from the millions of snipers! As others have said as well, I was extremely excited about the game, and I recommend it to those who wish to play a different landscape, and experience a wonderfully built campaign. However, the shortness of the campaign is a big disappointment, and multi player wont be as addictive as COD, at least in my opinion. I regard any game 6 and under not to be bothered with at all, and a 7 worth playing, but I've given it a 6 because of the campaign and the somewhat repetitive multi player. As a devoted fan of MOH since the first medal of honor, I had to buy the game since it was not a WW2 game, but I feel it has potential to be so much better.… Expand

The multi-player aspect is the focus of this review.

    Most maps are tight and require different strategies than BFBC2. The graphics are great. Due to the smaller map sizes for some of the battles, they don't include destructable buildings. This is the only bad part of the game. But on a tight map, if they did allow destructable buildings, the battlefield could be leveled withn moments of a match starting. Multi-player Maps are limited in number, but still maintain their fun factor because of the "human" element. Negatives include limited leveling and weaponry. The rest is positive. You can hop on anytime you have 15 minutes to spare since the games are shorter than BFBC2. I see this as a positive due to the demands of my life.

Since the unforgettable Frontline, the series has struggled to make a big impact so I was hopeful that would change when they changed the setting and opted for a more modern environment. Having completed the game and sampled everything on offer I have to confess that ultimately i'm left what the feeling og what could have been. MOH is actually a very good game but with everything else on offer (and before anyone says anything i'm not comparing it to COD) you feel as though this is a missed oppertunity. Visually the game is pretty impressive however it's not on par with Uncharted on Killzone in my opinion, but nonetheless MOH is certainly up their with the best looking FPS. The gameplay runs smoothly without doing anything spectacular its has a strong engine and does what is required for a FPS but does benefit from a sweet sniper shooting system, the moment between the firing of a shot and contact being made is extremely well thought of and you never tire of sniping due to this. In spite of this you will every so often run into a series of frustrating and stupid glitches like seeing an open piece of land and not being able to run into it! The single player mode is short but fun nonetheless just don't go expecting anything extraordinary although MOH does offer a good variety and the voice acting is superb and interacts really well. Multiplayer carries on the Battlefield effect but for me isn't any better than what BC2 had to offer. The maps seem smaller and I didn't find myself wanting to play on and on like other games have like MW and BC, however it's not all bad far from it when you get going its really immensly enjoyable though the unlock system should have included a lot more depth for my liking and the soldier management should have been more expansive. Overall, MOH gives us reasons to be optimistic about what future installments will bring as this is a good starting point and a respectable return for the MOH series however it certainly has room for improvement but is still worthwile purchase.… Expand

The multiplayer component of the game is great. You can easily get matched with other players without a long waiting time. The maps are also okay. However, with the online pass-- not many people use the maps/and game modes EA offered for additional $9.99. What this means is that it is ideal to make it free so that there will be more players on the maps, rather than paying for something that I see just 2 players.

    The sound in Medal of Honor is great, but the weapon customization has to be improved. There is the need to have more weapons in the campaign mode, and more easy to get ammo from the "opposing forces" while on the campaign.    … Expand

    As everyone compares every FPS that comes out with black ops, so will I. There are lots of people saying that MOH's campaign is short, but, have you played Black Ops's campaign? MoH has 8 levels (aprox) and Black Ops has 14 levels (aprox), but those 8 levels are far more exciting and fun than Call of Duty's.It may have less levels but they're also longer than Black Ops's campaign.

    MoH uses Frostbite engine (bad company's engine), and Black Ops uses a sightly improved World At War's engine.
    I think that both Moh and Call of Duty have a great sound quality, but the most prominent is MoH's.
    As I havent played the multiplayer yet, I cant say anything about it
    So, to sum all up, i think Moh deserved a much better score than Black Ops (im not saying i dont like black ops), because I think the developers from Moh put a lot more effort into the game than Treyarch (or whoever develops the game) with Black Ops

Aside form the negatives, the game play is fun and inciting. And the again the shooting physics are really well done, with a good realistic amount of kick-back and range of the weapons. The trophies available in the game are easy to achieve, but they take a while, which is nice, because most games have really hard to get trophies which makes the platinum seem impossible to acquire. The campaign is better than that in most FPS shooters, it has a great fell to it and it puts you right in the action. The multilayer is is also very fun and easy to get used to. The thing with the classes I don't like but aside form that, it's easy to rack up kills and rank up.

    So there are many good things about the game and not much to go wrong. I rated 8 because I felt would be a bit generous. Well worth the buy, (nowadays you can pick up a copy for like £10) so if you don't own it already then i highly recommend you buy it, Good game.    … Expand

    Medal of Honor doesn't become the current image of Electronic Arts – probably the most "humane" of all videogame corporations. Danger Close Games' debut reminds of a time when EA was a gloomy assembly line churning out soulless yearly sequels and movie tie-ins.

    Medal of Honor is the thinking man's Call of Duty. If you like shooting terrorists but felt the story and campaign of Modern Warfare 2 was too darn stupid, this is the game for you. Mechanically it's close to its competitor, but content-wise it's a class better and more thoughtful. It's an enjoyable if short experience that is bound to leave a lasting impression.
