Medal of Honor – can it stand up to Allied Assault?

While most WWII games are little more than shooting galleries, taking us from one bombed-out French, Russian, German, or Pacific Island ಌvillage after another, Medal of Honor was not afraid to take us by the hand to scenic pre-bombed-out locals; a prime example of this is a sleepy little German village during the final mission.

There is no distant gunfire, nor thumping of artillery. It is eerily silent as snow gently drifts to the ground – snow that actually appears to glitter when your perspective shifts. Were it not for all the Nazis hanging around, it wไould be easy to imagine spending a quiet evening in this place, curled up in front of the fireplace with a good book and hot chocolate. ⛎Maybe even a cat.

From North Africa to Norway, Allied Assault enabled us to experience the Second World War in a fashion never really told in ou🍒r history books. Was it atও all realistic? Probably not. Was it fun? Hell yeah.

How is MoH 2010 going to stack up? Contrary to popular belief, Afghanistan is🅰 not al🐻l deserts.

From snowy mountains to temperate fields, Afghanistan is very diverse in its terrain and climes. While the screenshots and videos we’ve seen so far depict a wide range of terrain and climate variations, it would be a shame if MoH 2010’s developers wasted an opportunity to show the war fဣrom a perspective we didn’t expect.

Judging by the fact that we’ve already seen infantry missions, Apache missions, and sniper missions AND given that the REAL Tier 1 operators have been impressed by the developers’ efforts so far, we think we’ve got nothing to worry about. However, w🌞e’ll have to wait and see if anything quite so idyllic as this Christmas-card-with-added-Nazis turns up.
