Best MOH Since Frontline (2008-10-31)
I bought this game last week, and along with Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway, it's my new favorite video game.
A few people have said that it's not as good as this MOH game or that MOH game or some other game from another series, but if you take it as it is it's actually a very good, fun game.
Though it is true it is a relitively short game (six levels) it has remarkably replayable. It's not a game where you play it once through and then turn around and sell it. You can try dropping in in different points on the map or upgrade all your weapons which unlocks a few special features.
As far as enemy AI their not a smart as the enemys in BIA:HH but they at least don't stand in the open to get shot to bits, or banzi charge you to just get killed they actually use cover pretty well and most of the time. Also the aim is pretty good too even in the Easy difficulty.
Someone said that the fightings not as intense as in MoH Vanguard, well I can't back that up or shoot down that statement I do have to say that the fighting in this game is some of the most intense I've ever played, especially in the last two levels.
The music and graphics are great too. The soundtrack is done by Michael Giacchino who also did the first three games then left the series and did soundtracks for other games like Mercenaries and movies like Speed Racer. The graphics are great. Best I've ever seen (actually thats since this is my first Xbox 360 game, I played PS2 for years before this game so naturally the graphics are way better).
The weapons are great too. All are upgradeable as I said before. Some upgrades are better than others though. Like the last shotgun upgrade.
I have been trying to think of some bad things about the game, but I can't think of any besides game length. The desiners could have added more missions but that it would be changing the war, since every air drop is covered.
All-in-all I give this game a five star rating. Maybe it's because I love the series or the time period, IDK. If you are a WWII buff you probably will like the game but if you are just a FPS fan and play every FPS than maybe you won't find it as great.
Well enjoy. Peace. :)
Good shooter (2008-07-02)
Not anything special, but I like it. I love WWII games, and it delivers action, as usual for this series.
The M.O.H series has died with this game... (2008-06-06)
You play as a guy named Travers who is in the United States Airborne division. Basically, your character and the rest of his troops jump out of planes and into different WW2 locations and basically either destroy something or kill nazis. Theres really no "story" like the other Medal of Honor games where you feel that your character is doing something extrodinary (like in Frontline where you infiltrate a German base disguised as a Nazi with some Nazi papers). You get your usual array of weapons in this game ranging anywhere from the M1 Garand and BAR assault rifle to the Panzershrek, Springfield sniper rifle and MP40. However, each gun is terribly inaccurate and do almost the same amout of damage as each other. What do I mean? Well for example I will be holding a Thompson machine gun, I will literally empty and entire clip into one soldier and he will do. On the next victim I used the Gweher and it took me an entire clip to lay him out. You are also awarded upgrades to your guns such as less recoil or a scope if you score enough headshots and kills with said guns. However, most of the upgrades are completley useless since the aiming and recoil (even with the upgrade for "less recoil") is still atrocious.
Lets talk hit detection. Pretty much, no matter where you shoot a Nazi...he will simply shrug it off and run away. You could shoot him in the chest with a Springfield (which in real life would blow a huge gaping hole in his chest cavity), he'll stagger for a minute and then dive behind cover. This is EXTREMLEY annoying, and is actually one of the reasons a previous MOH game did so bad (anyone remember Rising Sun?).
The multiplayer is garbage. If your allies, you parachute into the action. Sounds cool right? Not when enemies snipers just keep picking you off before you hit the ground. It probably wouldn't be so bad if you could.. oh, I don't know.. shoot a gun while parachuting?! Basically, your a target until you hit the ground. Ontop of that, your allies and enemies aren't clearly labeled. So for instance, you'll see a character standing there with no name or anything above his head... you kill him, and boom you score a team kill because you had no idea. God, so lame.
Your allies AI is disgusting. They will just stand there and get shot at without doing anything. The best example I have of this is in the 4th level where you are fighting in the city - I had an allied troop taking cover in a ruined building.... with an enemy standing right next to him. Terrible.
And additionally, I guess the game testers must have been sleeping when they gave this game the thumbs up. On more than one occassion bullets would go right through the walls or cover you are trying to hide behind. LAMMMEEEEEEE.
Oh, and expect to have a screaming match with your TV. This is one of the hardest titles ever. You'll die over and over and over and over and over and over just to gain an inch of land and then have it taken away because the checkpoint system is garbage. Since your AI is so bad and there are clipping issues, you'll basically be fighting the entire Nazi army by yourself.
The graphics aren't next gen, and are actualyl a step down from what Call of Duty has set as a standard for the genre of WW2 shooters. Characters look choppy, the explosions are pixelated and sloppy, and the only thing good about the graphics are the environments & guns.
As for as music goes, this has the worst soundtrack in the entire franchise. I was deeply dissapointed with the generic war time music used instead of the epic chorus and strings usually used. And the fact that the theme song isn't even the same is heart shattering.
As far as I'm concerned, the Medal of Honor games are dead. This is just a terrible game all around, and its really sad because I'm a huge fan of the series. The sheer lack of effort in almost every aspect of the game makes this an untouchable title. 2.5 rounds spent in my Garand out of 10.
A somewhat srange WWII FPS. (2008-04-23)
A fairly good game in most respects, but it has some strange characteristics to it. The controls are different from most FPS games on the 360, and the way you can level up weapons is strange. The ability to use cover and peak is a welcome addition that many FPS games do not have. The game is sometimes overly patriotic at points, and there are no soldiers from other allied nations, such as the British, anywhere in the game. Historical accuracy is also thrown out the window in the last 2 levels of the game. Still fun to play, but more thought should have been put into its development.
Fun, at times infuriating (2008-03-25)
I want to say that this game is hackneyed and yet another addition to the WWII FPS genre, but enough reviewers have already discussed this so I'll move on to my biggest gripe with this game - glitches.
MOHA (campaign mode, specifically) is easily the buggiest FPS I've ever played. The glitches range from the harmless:
AI characters getting stuck in animation loops
AI characters "ghosting" and becoming frozen mid-action (you can walk through them, but can't shoot them)
to infuriating:
You often get shot through solid objects, such as concrete blocks and large boxes (keep in mind that MOHA, unlike COD4, has no "shoot through thin objects" feature)
AI characters often seem to randomly teleport from one location to another
Enemies see you through thick smoke, which you cannot see through
Enemies with large, inaccurate weapons (panzerschrecks, recoilless guns) have better accuracy than the player equipped with a sniper rifle, at bafflingly long distances
When it's cruddiness isn't obvious, MOHA is actually a fun game. While parachuting often comes across as a nicely executed afterthought, the fights themselves are quite enjoyable (though the game is extremely frugal with regard to checkpoints, which makes it especially hard on higher difficulty settings).
Final word: Medal of Honor: Airborne is a game that's worth a rental, but its campaign mode is definitely not worth the money.
