With Half-Life, the narrative, ingenius puzzles, and AI are the only things that truly stand out from the rest. Bagram Airfield was never in Taliban hands and it was the British SBS who helped secure it, not the SEALs. World At War before World At War, where you play as a normal soldier within a normal platoon, and every MOH game except for Heroes 2 followed that suit.

While the previous titles were set during World War II, Medal of Honor takes place during the War in Afghanistan. Artwork is essentially identical cross-platform, but there is the odd example of textures being pared back on PS3, though rare examples like this are unlikely to have much impact on the gameplay experience.Acting as two games in one the multiplayer modes have been created by developer DICE, makers of the Battlefield: Bad Company series. Some Danish veterans were appalled by the game that takes place in the Helmand province where Danish troops are stationed. The only thing i didn't like was how EA games said this wasn't another "GO TEAM USA" propaganda piece, then that's exactly what it turned out to be. However, this is small beer - a technical curiosity at most - and the overall conclusion is that Danger Close has done a good job in getting some decent visuals out of UE3, which are essentially like-for-like on both console platforms.

As is often the case with masterpieces that change the essence of the genre in an instant, these two games were plagued with a plethora of problems as an FPS. I actually purchased this for the Medal of Honor: Frontline bonus content, which I can confirm IS on the disc. The Tier 1 Operator functions on a plane of existence above and beyond even the most highly trained Special Operations Forces. From here the player can uniquely customize the sights, silencer, and ammo for each individual load out. This is due to the game featuring more coarse language, such as the usage of the f-word, than the previous games.In a sense, it was more "Halo in WWII" with the explicit purpose of not having the depth of Halo, replacing it with Half-Life's cinematic approach. Medal of Honor leaves the WWII theatre for the first time in its 11-year history and enters the modern day setting of war-torn Afghanistan seen through the lens of a small band of fictional characters.

There's are certain hotspots in many of the game's campaign levels that really flummox the PS3, compounding screen-tear with some heavy drops in frame-rate. The Tier 1 edition would cost the same as the Limited Edition and feature the same benefits as the Limited Edition (including the Battlefield 3 Beta Key). Medal of Honor is literally a game of two halves, so to begin with, let's take a look at a selection of scenes from the single-player campaign mode.

Developer Gordon Van Dyke mentioned that people "shouldn't expect a clone of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 for Medal of Honor's multiplayer" in a GameSpy interview. It's a little contrived the way the missions are sewn together, but it keeps you involved in the plot.
