    I was really excited that Medal of Honor was finally coming out on the PS3, but this game was very disappointing. The single player campaign is pretty good and the only reason I gave this game a score of 5. I thought the campaign mode on COD MW2 was A LOT better. I don't even know where to start when talking about the online multiplayer mode.

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.

    I was hoping that this game would replace COD as my favorite 1st person shooter. It failed. Its super short 6 hours? Thats what I would expect from a $15 XBLA game. Its super easy and multiplayer is a serious let down. MOH = fail.

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.

    I was very disappointed that it was only single player in the campaign mode. Also the language is extremely vulgar and while my kids love these types of games, I will not let them play it. Other than that the graphics are okay and I would rate this game a 7 out of 10.

    What it comes down to, simply, is that different does not mean better or even good. Call of Duty is the leader for a reason.

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. I really was looking forward to this tittle because I'm looking for the monopoly that is CoD to be broken up, but MoH doesn't have the same ring or addictive game play to even have a shot. Expand

    The graphics are really nicely done in the single player, the environments are realistic looking, the characters look great, the multi-player's graphics are nice but definitely a step down in the graphics department from the single player.

    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.

    Personally i find most of the maps pretty dull and similar looking, i liked the airfield one the most.

    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.

    To summarize it's been worth a play but has grown boring very fast, with its repetitive multi-player due to lack of variety and a very short single player with only a few stand out sections.

This game is marketed as the best shooter but that does raise the bar quite a bit to high for 'just another sequel'. So the disappointment can be quite big for multiple reasons.
    But the game doesn't do much wrong compared to its predecessors either. My personal critic of this game and many similar shooters is that you are saddled with stupid team mates that ad nothing to the game and you can not complete the mission your way. 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. The single player is better than Battlefield: Bad Company 2 but EA shouldn't have forced to bring this game so soon to the market just to be earlier than Call of Duty Black ops.

    Medal of Honor could have been so much better. I wanted it to be better than the next COD and I convinced myself it would be. Then I played the Beta, and hated it, swore it off, but then for some reason...I guess anticipation for a new shooter, bought it when it came out. I should have just waited, but I returned it and put money toward COD which I got anyways...

    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.

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

    Medal of Honor (2010) is a good shooter despite a few problems. This game offers a more realistic take on the First Person Shooter.

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

    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.

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.

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

    i liked this game but i am not going to say i loved playing it. ill start off with the story it is interesting enough to play but i found you can only play a little bit of it a night before it gets dull and i find you die way to easily even on the easiest setting. not saying dying easy is a bad thing it is just something im not used to and it makes the game alot harder. the voice acting ii liked this game but i am not going to say i loved playing it. ill start off with the story it is interesting enough to play but i found you can only play a little bit of it a night before it gets dull and i find you die way to easily even on the easiest setting. not saying dying easy is a bad thing it is just something im not used to and it makes the game alot harder. the voice acting i found was not very impressive except for the field comander who actually gave a damn about the situation and i wish the story was longer but as always with these types of games it is more geared towards online play. now for online play i liked it in some ways and disliked it as wellwhat i liked about it is that it is really easy to get good at playing online but it is also almost imposible to stay alive for more than a couple kills and i found i wasnt really contributing to the outcome of the battle but it is fun to play in doses so i suggest to give it a try Expand

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.

    not a bad game. the single player is sweet with only a few minor problems. it's a little short but it manages to cover stealth operations, massive battles, scouting for air cav, and gunning out of an apache. the biggest annoyance i had was the invisible check points where you could be two feet from a squad member when you actually have to practically be on top of them to progress. mp isnot a bad game. the single player is sweet with only a few minor problems. it's a little short but it manages to cover stealth operations, massive battles, scouting for air cav, and gunning out of an apache. the biggest annoyance i had was the invisible check points where you could be two feet from a squad member when you actually have to practically be on top of them to progress. mp is disappointing coming from dice. kill streaks, no recoil, and lack of weapons make it a fairly shallow and boring experience.

This game should be called "Medal of no honor". Expand

    EA's basically trying to do what CoD4 did, but it didn't work as well as they expected. There's still good in this reboot: The graphics are nice and the MP is good (as always), but the single-player story shouldv'e had more focus instead of the MP.

    Medal of Honor tries to reboot the once great franchise but fails miserably. The story mode is decent but very boring, the gameplay is okay. The graphics are bad, texture pop ins and framerate drops all the time, multiplayer is abandoned no one plays anymore. This is a game that you shouldint waste more than $5 on.

    Sinceramente un fracaso Jugabilidad: los controles del BBC2 eran distintos, como era de esperar, como este MoH es una copia de la competencia cambiaron los controles. en cuanto a la jugabilidad es muy mala, pareciera que el personaje pesara 300kg y su gordura no lo dejara subir ni pasar por los lugares donde deberia.

Graficos: estamos en el 2010 se podria haber hecho algo mucho mejor, en lo que es la campaña mas de la mitad del juego es en ambientes de noche con graficos pesimos. Tecnologia: Donde esta? Sonido: este es el mejor punto del juego, realmente se siente muy bien cdo se esta en modo multijugador, eso si varias veces aparece un bug en el sonido y si hay explosiones, disparos, gritos al mismo tiempo, algo de todo eso no lo vas a escuchar. Innovacion: 0 ni un poco de imaginacion pudieron tener. Singleplayer: aca esta lo peor del juego, muy corto, la historia muy pobre, los niveles todos lineales y aburridos. la inteligencia artificial parece de un juego de gameboy. lo jugue en modo dificil y aun asi me parecio muy facil. Tier 1 mode: que se puede decir de un modo total y absolutamente al PEDO. para que un modo que tengas que hacer todo de vuelta para comprar el tiempo, y los tiros en la cabeza, tranquilamente estos datos se pueden recopilar cdo haces la carrera. una mierda. Multiplayer: aca es donde se ve mejor y donde deberias divertirte mas, pero no. Los mapas, una cagada, solo es enfrentarse de un lado y del otro constantemente, sin poder flanquear y dejandole todo el merito a los putos camper. encima los mapas depende del modo que jueges, si por ejemplo solo te gusta el modo de team deathmatch solo vas a usar 3 putos mapas. si usas el sector control otros 2 mapas de mierda mas. La jugabilidad otra cagada, teniendo un arma de francotirador, con todas las miras y demas pelotudeces 4 tiros en la cabeza al enemigo y nisiquiera lo toca. no se si es error de los mapas o que bosta pero me ha hecho enojar por demas. Los movimientos, muy irreales. caen y vuelan como bolsas de papas. Las explosiones, si no tiras un RPG justo entre los ojos del enemigo no lo vas a matar, una mentira total Las armas: otra basura. las armas de los marines siempre son mejores que las de opfor, por supuesto sino que carajo hace un juego yanqui de mierda perdiendo contra los talibanes. asi esten configuradas igual el francotirador de marine mata a un solo tiro, mientras que el otro desde el mismo lugar con la misma configuracion solo toca al adversario.

The missions have no flow (sometimes the action completely halts because you have to do something that isn’t obvious at all to get the objectives going, like go stand on a rock or return to your team that is idleing for no reason by a wall). This is a very scripted game and that kinda kills it. Also the game is very short as you can easily complete it within 5 hours. The graphics are kinda lame for a 2010 game and the framerate isn’t even consistently good at all and you have a pretty bad game. For under 10 bucks though, you could buy this for a weekend of fun.

Now, the meat of the game, multiplayer. It runs on the same engine as Bad Company 2, and holds some noticeable similarities to BC2, but it definitely feels different. Unfortunately, the multiplayer is fun in some areas, but falls short of being as good as BC2's. At least this game comes with early access to the Battlefield 3 beta, and that's the only reason you'd want to buy this game. Overall, MoH is a weak attempt to reboot the dead MoH franchise, that fails miserably. Don't buy this game. Expand

    EA's modern day reboot of the MOH franchise is enjoyable, but disposable. The campaign was made by Danger Close, while the multiplayer was developed by DICE. The two modes feel completely different. The combat in both is entertaining, but uninspired. Fans of DICE's "Battlefield" franchise will probably get some enjoyment with the online matches.

    The story feels very average
    Towards the end i was starting to think that the predator in the sky was the only thing enjoyable

    It looks like they tried competing with COD: Modern warfare But it just ended up feeling like a miss step They really tried but the game feels very generic and bland

    A successful comeback of the Medal of Honor-series, which is far away from reaching the top-ranks of the shooter genre. The short amount of the single-player campaign is really annoying.

    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.
