Summary: War...it's fan-tastic...
Review: MoH vets will be right at home in this, the first pc edition of the classic Ps2 game. Stepping into the muddy boots of Army Ranger Jimmy Patterson it's out of boot camp (with a great advisory voice over by retired USMC Captain Dale Dye) and off to the battlefield. And what a battlefield. Jim will be taking part in many daring WW2 missions, embarking in Africa and spanning the globe to frost-bitten Germany. And yup, there's that now famous Normandy Landing to make it through in piece.

The graphics are crisp and (very) realistic, if your graphics card is up to the challenge. A downloaded blood patch will add some realistic gore if that's your thing...otherwise its just puff's of dust when you rip into those naughty German's with your Thompson carbine. The sound is also pretty involving, as bullets zip overhead, grenades go boom, and your squad mates bark orders and scream for medics. In fact its a lot like real war. Without the potato peeling in between levels.

With lots of varied landscapes to hide behind, and a nice (and authentic) variety of shooty tools to play with you'll have a blast on your first play through the game.
Sadly its a very scripted experience, and once you've pegged where that german sniper is, you'll find him waiting patiently every time you play through. This is particularly true of the riviting Omaha Beach level. The first time through you'll be in veritable shell-shock at the detail crammed into the level...from staggering out of your higgin's boat under intense mg42 fire, to the agonising crawl up the beach as your fellow rangers are blown sky high its a level that will go down in video game history. But make no mistake, it'll still be the same when you play though the next time. And the next time.

Still, there's a brilliant multiplayer game to duke it out in, with lots of diffent levels to suit the junior rocketeers as well as the wily snipers. I'd certainly give this five stars for the first time-through single player game...and the multiplayer saves it from being a one-hit-wonder. Add on the short-but-sweet Spearhead expansion pack and you've got one fine military crusade. On the ready line soldier, time to hit the beaches...

Summary: Great game, but has some issues... easily overcome!
Review: This game is an excellent first person shooter. In terms of single player mode - the story and levels move very quick. The story isn't really all that exciting, but the game play is. The biggest complaint I have about singleplayer is the way some parts of levels have "limitless" attackers that just appear out of no where. It almost makes it unfair at times! This games investment, however, pays off online. Multiplay is very well done, and if you have a decent connection you will find yourself playing on low ping servers and not worrying about lag ever. This game is a total blast to play with 16 other people in team mode as you fight your way to an objective (destroy a rocket, or defend a bridge perhaps!) You have a good choice of weapons to be a defensive person, sniper, 'rocketman', or rifleman. This game is just a total blast and you can take it for ten minutes at a time or hours -- the choice is yours! We have come a long way since Quake - that is for sure! I enjoy a game like this far more than something that is less realistic [e.g. Unreal.] This game doesn't allow you to get a rocket launcher and fire 100 rockets in two minutes and win the game with no skill. Each weapon and choice is well-rounded and it actually requires skill to play! So if you are great at something like Quake or Unreal, you might find this a new challange as it does not allow room for rocketsplashing the other team -- you will actually have to aim and make a shot to win deathmatch.

Summary: Just Plain EXCELLENT!
Review: I guess this game is getting to be 'old hat', but that doesn't make it any less impressive, IMHO. Everything about this game is superbly done. The environments and interaction with the other characters is completely engrossing. The music is awesome. The sound can genuinely scare you. Attention to historic detail is commendable (nobody's ever perfect here - it's a game, after all). My only complaint is that there isn't anything more difficult than 'Hard' - once you map out the action the missions can seem repetitive and the play value at this point is increasing difficulty. Some of the enemy characters are a bit slow on the draw once you know the drill. Still, re-playing familiar missions is kept from getting truly boring by the variability in the other characters' movements, etc.

This game is an awesome achievement and a great deal of fun to play. Very highly recommended. The Spearhead expansion pack is equally well-done.

Summary: Great WWII Fun
Review: The Medal of Honor franchise continues with "Allied Assault." MOHAA lives up to its (high) expectations, and Electronic Arts (a company whom I'm not a big fan of) did an excellent job on this game.

This game came out within a month of the fantastic "Return To Castle Wolfenstein," and I was very interested to see for myself which game was better. I've played through both games, and I have to say they are both some of the best FPS games I've ever played. MOHAA follows a more realistic approach to WWII, but this doesn't make it any better or worse than RTCW.

The graphics are very good when pumped up on a good graphics card like mine (GeForce Ti4200 128mb), but the default graphics are poor. The physics are also good, but the animations are a little bit quick.

The gameplay is very good, but it doesn't quite touch the gameplay of RTCW. The reason for this is the AI, which is...well...dumb. The enemy (on medium difficulty) simply ran by me countless times, taking away from the realism a little. Still the realism factor is there, especially in the stunning D-Day mission.

The sound is fantastic, and the great soundtrack and sound effects add to the gameplay alot. Overall, when compared to RTCW, it is simply a good game, but on its own, it is a fantastic gaming experience.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good if u have the pc
Review: This is a great game but it rarely would load without performing an "illegal operation" each time it did that i would have to shut my computer down. Otherwise when it did it was a terrific game the graphics were good weapon choice was good overall i would rate this game a 5 out of 5 but it kept performing that "illegal operation" Only get this game if u have a good pc

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Yet another great game for the series.
Review: Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is arguably the best first person shooter game for the PC. It's two predecessors, Medal of Honor and Medal of Honor: Underground don't even compare with the gameplay, texture, or graphics that the computer enhances. Allied Assault brings a whole new array of weapons into play. You can control more artillery, and a wide variety of authentic WW2 weapons to help defeat the Nazi war machine. You also get to take place in biggest operation ever: Operation Overlord, a.k.a D-Day. With a lot of help from your allies, the Nazis don't stand a chance of defeating you.
The only minor annoyance that I know of is that the enemy is such a good shot. And I'm sure those who have played the sniper level will agree with me.
Bottom Line: Medal of Honor does it again

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT GAME
Review: This was one of the greatest games that I have ever played. The realism is incredible. After playing this game to the end, I watched Band of Brothers... I could not believe how historically accurate this game was. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If you buy this game, you will loose your girl friend
Review: well, what can i say say about this game? The graphics isn't the best, I've seen better, but who wants a pretty game with loads of make up and no substance. The single player aspect of the game is excellent although it's not revolutionary (I found the single player levels relatively easy, but I do play shooters religiously). This game comes to life in multiplayer mode. One of the best MULTIPLAYER games I have played. This game has almost taken up all my free time, and still is. Buy this game, Buy this game Buy this game Buy this game Buy this game
