Rating: Summary: A Great Game, must have for any shooter fan Review: You've just been enlisted into the army as Lt. Mike Powell during World War 2. Your first mission: free a fellow comerade who has been captured by the Germans. Right from the start, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault rockets ahead of all the other WW2 games I have ever played (and no, RTCW isn't a WW2 game, its fiction). The levels are superbly designed, snipertown and D-day had me crying for more. I love the location-based damage: when you hit them in certain places it shows a mini-movie of them reacting. The re-loading, running and weaponry are very realistic, and so is the tactics. However, the graphics are not up to par. Your hands look emarrassingly fake, and while the other soldiers look real from far away, close up their faces are bland and lifeless. In Wolfenstein, you can tell much more time was used in make the skins look lifelike. Another complaint I have is there is no blood. I'm not particularly a gorey person myself, but this game has absolutely NO blood. If you launch a bazooka at a guy, he just falls to the ground. Also, you need to free up 1.2 Gigs on your computer to install the game, plus an extra 500 Megabytes or so to play it. And though you don't need a CD to play it, Allied Assault still wants you to have the CD in. Still, the gameplay is solid and it is just the right length, so I give this game a 4 out of five stars.
Rating: Summary: MOHAA REV Review: Medal of Honor Allied Assault was the best first person shooter game that I have ever played. It kept me tense on what was going to happen next. Plenty of Germans to kill! Haha lots of revenge... This is a "must have" game. If your an extreme gamer like me, this is a game to get.
Rating: Summary: Medal of Honor Allied Assualt ( actually "Dune") Review: The game order through ... has arrived. However, it appears to be only the game "Dune" and not "Medal of Honor Allied Assault". Since this was advertised as Medal of Honor Allied Assault I am at a loss to understand why it is a "Dune" game and not a World War II based game. Any reply may make it understandable about this mix-up. Or, at least to me, it seems to be a game not at all related to Medal of Honor Allied Assault. Please do reply as this is of major concern, and only after hearing back will I know what options are available to me. The shipping and delivery was really quick, however it does not appear to be what was advertised. Why would a "Medal of Honor Allied Assault" game be called "Dune"? With all due repeat, I need to know this.**This was an e-mail to the seller ... and there was no reply to my concern at all. So much for honesty on the net. Gary Combs
Rating: Summary: Nothing new, but a blast to play! Review: MOH Allied Assualt is a FPS with a WWII setting. While there is nothing especially new in the game, it is a blast to play and will undoubtably be a best seller. The game play borrows heavily from NOLF (hey, nothing wrong with that!), especially in the stealth missions and is much, much easier to handle than Operation Flashpoint.AI is generally very good - Germans, once they see you, will hunt you down with ruthless efficiency. Your squad is likewise very crafty in taking out enemies and watching your back. There are, however, some gliches that are sometimes quite funny. In the very first mission, one of your squad throws himself on a grenade, then after it blows he gets up unharmed and continues the mission. In one of the later missions, one of the Germans do the same and gets blown to bits. There is also a dog in a mission that just gets frozen in place. Throughout the game, if you see two Germans standing around talking, you can shoot one and the other just stands there like he didn't even notice that his buddy just got wasted. Also, in the second mission, a German soldier runs THROUGH your buddy to get to you. Very funny stuff. There are also some great surprises if you stay alert. If you line up two enemies, you can take them both out with a single shot. Very cool. There are lots of places where you can take over a German machine gun and take out entire squads (the gun never runs out of ammo!). The Omaha beach landing is awesome, but you will soon discover a pattern that allows you to beat it every time. In one mission, after you take out all the bad guys you win a medal for finding two tanks and blowing them up. The hardest part of the game is dealing with snipers. They are well in the distance and hard to find in the rubble. Best approach is look up at your compass when you take a hit, it goes red in the direction the shot came from. Still tough, though, and requires lots of patience. I've seen a lot about crashes in reviews but haven't had any problems on my 3-year old PC after I installed the patch from AE's web site. If it does crash, you have the option of re-loading it in Safe Mode with toned down settings. My only complaint about the game is you have to shoot dogs to get through some missions, they coulda' just left that out without hurting the game one bit. In summary, MOH is a real winner and well worth the money.
Rating: Summary: Excellent but Moderate Review: I have bought the game Mohaa(medal of honor allied assault) recently. it has great graphics and av images and the weapons are awsume. the reson i give it a 4 insted of a 5 is because when you play multiplayer it is sometimes hard to find a game in progress, unless you start your own. Another thing is the game lags sometimes if the sereves bad, or if you have a low connection. To get this game its best to have a cable connection. But what ever you got is fine. Another thing is the GameSpy Arcade is coplicated and sometimes frustating to use. But the game is deffently worth your while. a great WWII game. I'm a SharpShooter and I love this game.
Rating: Summary: The best made war game ever! Review: This game has got all the requirements to let you have a fun time while at the same time you learn about how World War 2 must have been fought. The d day invasion is absoulutly stunning. The graphics are excellent and the gameplay is very smooth(thanks to the Quake 3 engiene).
Rating: Summary: V-Day for the first person shooter Review: I am not usually a fan of straight first person shooters, preferring games that incorporate some form of real-time action with an overlay of strategy, like the Close Combat series. I find that games like Quake, which relies on reflexes alone, are unrewarding after a while and have little replay ability. Medal of Honour - Allied Assault, however, is the one first person shooter that is guaranteed to distract strategy hacks from their usual genre . . . at least for a while. The game's realistic rendering of scenery and WWII weaponry and its attention to detail are unparallelled. One of my favourite moments is during an early level, when you enter a room that turns out to be a toilet and can see the boots of an enemy soldier under the cubicle door. You throw open the door and pistol whip the unsuspecting sentry into submission before he's barely had time to pull his pants up. The presentation of the story line is excellent and there are some truly memorable moments, such as when you finally enter one of the German pillboxes overlooking Omaha Beach. From there you can see the whole scene; the tiny figures of the GIs scrambling over the sand dunes and barbed wire far below, periodically being mown down by machine guns or blown up by shellbursts. Then you can turn the MG42 in the pillbox on German positions to your right and let them taste some of their own medicine. The game nonetheless has several downsides. Its biggest fault is that the missions are too linear. Unlike Delta Force, in which you can explore an entire three dimensional landscape around each target, attacking from whatever angle you choose or picking targets in your own order, Allied Assault forces you generally to follow a narrow path designated by the game. For example, when street fighting, you are usually forced to conduct full frontal attacks up the mainstreets of the towns rather than being given the option to duck down a side street and try to flank the enemy. This makes the game a little boring and predictable and limits replay ability. The endings of missions are also heavily scripted, finicky and often a bit illogical. In one ending, if you stay in the building, you will be killed by falling debris. To win, you must leave the building and then re-enter it. If you follow the correct sequence, the building will not collapse on you. The online game is also not particularly interesting -- it is very similar to that of the Delta Force series with a large number of cheats running around and most people opting to use the bazooka or panzerschreck as the lowest common denominator of weapon. These points aside, Medal of Honour -- Allied Assault is a fun game that will keep you playing at least until you've obtained the nine decorations needed to fill your medal box.
Rating: Summary: Great Idea....Poor game Review: I bought this game a few months ago and i was hopping for a great game but when i installed it it would want to connect to the internet ( because i have a 56k) but i was playing Single Player and i couldn't even get the Multiplayer to work at all.
Rating: Summary: Great Game Review: This game was deffiantly one of the best I have ever played. When you get to D Day you will no wat I mean. This game has awsome graphics and a wide variety of World war 2 weapons. I think it is worth the money.
Rating: Summary: BEST WW2 SIM EVER !! Review: I only played mision one level 5 at best-buy in vernon hills.(don't mension I went there)and saw this guy there who nearly won that level but got bored and quit out. After that i gave it a whirl. The controls are fairly simple. You use your mouse to turn and fire your weapons and hold down the W key to walk. use the number keys to switch weapons. Sounds simple? Theres a million other controls!! try it for yourself!
