This mode adds a mild amount of replay value to the game's story by putting you through the levels again (minus the helicopter level) but now you have to complete them within a certain amount of time. You can unleash so much devastation in that thing that it should be illegal, but that doesn't change the fact that it's heli-fun (get it?).Īfter the campaign has run its (all too short) course you can dive into "Tier 1 Mode". Both of these weapons are fun, but neither can compare to the awesomeness that is taking the gunner seat in an attack helicopter. Another awesome weapon comes in the form of binoculars that can summon air strikes on selected targets. You'll take charge of a high powered sniper rifle in several levels that allows you to remove heads and limbs with a single shot. The basic weapons found in Medal of Honor add enough variety to keep the game fun, but the best weapons are saved for the game's campaign. If the guns you have aren't any fun to use then you're not going to be in for an enjoyable time. One feature, that is easily the most important in any first person shooter, is the weapons. People will of course be offended by the fact that the game has American troops being killed by members of the Taliban, but DICE and EA knew what they were doing when they decided to make a game based on the current war. This leaves nothing but brain mush and a spinal cord where the opposition's head was. Medal of Honor is surprisingly violent and one awesomely disturbing feature let's you actually blow heads off of enemies utilizing a shotgun. Though, what the game lacks in depth it makes up for in violence.
The title's hard mode doesn't even live up to its name and could only really be considered hard by those who have never touched a shooter in their lives. The story is only 10 chapters long and the game is even shorter than any other FPS title - which is really disappointing. You'll be thrown into the metaphorical boots of three different characters throughout the campaign and each is in a different division of the army, taking you on a journey that lasts two days within the game's world. The actual story behind the game is simple, and somewhat lacking - which is something we've come to expect from the genre. The move is fun and will make you feel like an action hero anytime you run and slide towards an enemy - while filling him with lead. For me, the one stand out feature was the ability to run and then slide in and out of cover.
However, that doesn't mean there isn't anything different between the brands. The actual campaign in Medal of Honor is pretty fun but doesn't offer anything different from Call of Duty titles. Now that we've covered the different game modes (which are pretty standard for FPS players), we can talk about the Campaign section. Medal of Honor is basically split into two different sections - you have the campaign side of things, that features a fun single player story mode, as well as the multiplayer side that will allow you and some friends to go online and lay the smack down on unsuspecting newbies. However, that doesn't mean there isn't any fun to be had. So does Medal of Honor topple ol' King CoD? No, it doesn't come close. Medal of Honor is EA's attempt to dethrone Call of Duty as the king of the modern FPS, but that's an incredibly tall order to fill.
