Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

PROS: The graphics are great and the plot is historically interesting - especially if you like WWII type games

CONS: Boring weapons (that hardly ever change), no gore, parts of the game oftentimes seem way to hard or way to easy.

If you like the realistic things this game brings to the table historically with the plot, weapons, etc you'll enjoy it. Otherwise I would suggest you skip it. The game has left me very disappointed. There are so many FPS out there and I don't see how this one deserves a medal outside of the graphics. As examples - I thought Soldier of Fortune II and Return to Castle Wolf were all around better experiences. Both of these games were constantly absorbing me and scaring the heck out of me. With Media of Honor I feel like I am playing a lame Quake 3 WWII mod with limited weapons and linear action.

One thing that Medal of Honor did for me was help me appreciate Memorial Day. Trying to get through the Omaha Beach level, I had to sit back and realize (after my 50th death) that those guys could not "save" their game, "try again", or enter a cheat code.

To you in the military, I salute you. The five stars are for you.

Medal Of Honor Allied Assault is the greatest game out there it's graphics are just spectacular! Don't listen to the people who say it's a bad game. Medal Of Honor Allied Assault is historically accurate and the enemy A.I. is excellent plus the D-day levels are the best I have ever played and I've been playing for 12 years. Settle for noting less buy this game and it's expansion I BEG OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a good game. I am glad to see that EA is still supporting the dying MAC OS with great new games like this. The gameplay is good, and this is better than the Windows version. If you like any other Medal of Honor games, check this one out. If you play console games, you will be pleased to know that this plays better tan what is on the Playstation and looks better than what is on the Dreamcast. A must-buy for all MAC owners.

The story and game play of the single player game is one of the best ever. Just the right mix of problem solving and fighting. The game is hard at times, but not so hard it's not fun. It really was just about perfect for me.

However, I do have a few problems with it. No cooperative play has always been a pet peeve of mine and this game is no exception. I don't like spend dozens or even hundreds of hours going through a game by myself, I want to enjoy it with a buddy or two. This is why I only gave it only 4 stars. If you don't care about cooperative play then the game is definitely a 5 star game.

As for multiplayer online play I found the game good, but not great. It just doesn't have the speed and action as well as the fun factor of a game like Unreal. For multiplayer I would give the game 3.5 stars.
