A GOOD GAME - HIT BY THE ...S.T.A.L.K.E.R. CURSE,

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Medal of Honor: Airborne (Video Game)
The MEDAL OF HONOR series were probably the BEST WWII FPS games available (with CODE OF HONOR and RETURN TO CASTLE WOLFENSTEIN a close 2nd and 3rd). The atmosphere, the feeling, the rush of being in the boots of WWII soldiers were unsurpassable!True, MoH-AIRBORN may not be at par with the first MoH games, yet it is the successor MoH-PACIFIC ASSAULT failed to become! New movement options (peak above and below), a few RPG sprinkles (weapons upgrades!), improved graphics (especially the shadows!) and realistic factor (you REALLY need to get used to shooting from cover!). Finally, it is the unpredictability of where you start your mission and in what order you get your objectives completed that add some clear points to this game. Now, here are the bad news: - The game is TOO SHORT. By any standard. EA let, once more, greed get the better of their decision making: I am sure, as you are reading this, the other half of the game is getting burned onto disks labeled "Expansion". - Checkpoints. I hate checkpoint games! Not only because you usually end up dying just before reaching the next one - but mostly because it is the gimmick used by game publishers to artificially augment the game's duration (by having us replay the same segments again and again...). - The game is hit by the STALKER curse. And I explain: the STALKER curse is when an excellent game is actually engineered for the...next generation of computers. STALKER is a uniquely open-ended FPS-RPG - yet my copy is gathering dust. My computer is not that shabby (P4 3.2MHZ, 2GB RAM, nVidia 7600GT-512MB on ASUS P4P 800) yet, as with STALKER, MoH-AIRBORN stutters and freezes all the time (and I found out that this is true even to people with even much faster PC systems). As with STALKER, when I will have the system to play MoH-AIRBORN to its full potential, the game will be obsolete. All in all, a good game if you have the PC system to handle its true requirements (and the patience to even then endure inconveniencing moments).

This review is from: Medal of Honor: Airborne (Video Game)
A well done World War II FPS featuring the USA Airborne division.This is my favorite type of game; that being FPS with some upgrades (in this case, weapons). As with any game there are positives and negatives...let me elaborate. The Pros: 1.)Excellent graphics, audio and gameplay. For me, the game ran without a hitch using 'Vista' with a Dual Core Processor, 2 GBs of RAM and a 8800 series nVidia video card. 2.)Several upgrades to weapons (larger ammo clips, scopes, faster reload, etc.) that become available with progress in the game. 3.)The game requires thinking, patience and working with your comrades. No stand up and blast away here; you just won't last very long. 4.)Multiplayer available if you register your game online. 5.)Many different weapons to choose from; each with their own different characteristics. 6.)A really satisfying sniper role; one of my favorite modes. 7.)Non-linear game play; although you must complete specific goals to progress, you can complete your objectives in any order and your movement is unrestricted. The Cons: 1.)You'll need a very good system to run this game properly. (See Pros: 1.)above) 2.)If you want to play online (multiplayer), you must register your game with 'Electronic Arts'. 3.)Saves are done (automatically), but only at specific checkpoints (controlled by the game). So if you got killed just before reaching a checkpoint you have to start the entire segment again. (and you must engage all the same enemy you just fought and defeated...again) 4.)If you want to switch difficulty from lets say 'casual' mode (easy) to 'normal' you lose all your game saves and must start all over (which includes a tedious tutorial) 5.)There are only 6 different battles segments (in 6 different geographic locales) on the entire DVD (plus a short training tutorial); and although some of the segments featured extended firefights, the entire game was somewhat short to play. 6.)Limited replay value. Finally...despite its overall short length, I really liked this game . The fighting was visceral and gut-wrenching; you really felt a part of the action going on around you. 4 1/2 Stars.
