Medal of Honor: Frontline

EA Games have released many games that they can be proud of, but this one beats them all. Medal of Honor Frontline lets you experience a war that was the worst of its kind. We don't want to experience a real war, just get an idea what it would have been like for the people who had to live and breathe the ups and downs of war. This game captures that perfectly. The graphics are excellent, with the smallest details adding to the splendor. Crystal-clear sound puts you in the mood most people would have felt back in the 1940's. The gameplay is superb, with you taking the role as Lieutenant Jimmy Patterson, who is enlisted with the US Army. Overall, this game ITSELF deserves a Medal of Honor.

Being an Immigrant and knowing members of my family being involved in World War II it's something truly special when I get to re-live the events that changed the face of the war. Medal of Honor: Frontline is such an experience from the beginning when you're fighting in Normandy to the real world locations within France, Holland among others. You need to play this game not only because it's fun action but because it's also education and you'll learn stuff about WWII (which you may or may not have already known). The Medal of Honor Series is one of the best First-Person Shooting games around...you need to play it

You climb a flight of stairs, sniper rifle in hand. Half the building is blown away, but you continue looking for the perfect perch. Coming up behind an enemy Nazi, he turns around just to see you clobber him squarely in the face, and as he tries to rise, you finish him off with another blow. You step over the body, and set your sights. Down below, a score of Germans are battling with Allied forces. You mark your target, and squeeze the trigger. An officer takes the bullet, and his cap flies off. Directly across the alleyway, a Nazi sniper turns and raises his rifle. Another quick round silences him. Below, a German soldier turns to make a break for the machine gun a few metres away. Your rifle barks again, and the targets flips forward. He gets up painstakingly, and finally, you pull the trigger. His falls back, muttering his last words. You load a new magazine, and gaze into the rubble-filled streets of Arnhem.

Medal of Honor Frontline is a game that takes you beyond D-Day, and as it states, right into the Frontlines. Each level is beautifully done. This game proves that you don't need special effects and all that for it to be a great game.

A complete recommendation to all shooter fans.

This game is what all FPS games should be. There have been plenty of comments about the graphics, the sound, the gameplay, blah, blah, blah. What really grabbed this player was the interactive music. When Patterson is sneaking down an alley, the background music reflects the building tension. As one of the Nazis hears Patterson coming and hits the alarm button the music picks up to a heart-pounding tempo. Once all the Germans are eliminated and Patterson returns to steathily creeping around, the music backs off again. It's a particular rush to play with a large-screen tv and surround sound. You can actually hear bullet strikes in front of, behind, to the left and right of you. Whip out the plastic an pony up for a home theater system. Even if it's only to play THIS game, it's worth it.

When you think of World War Two, you think of the bloody beaches of Normandy, the shattered villages of rural France, and the plotting resistance pin-pricking German positions. And this is exactly what this game delivers.

The game-play is - in a good way - typical of a first person shooter. The range of weapons is very realistic as well. The story portrays you as Jim Patterson, a private in the U.S. army, picked for a series of undercover missions across undercover France.

The only let down is the fact that you can't play 2 player. But other than that, a brilliant game. Seeing as it's quite an old game now, you can pick it up in most game stores for under £25.

A real gem. 9/10
