Medal of Honor Review 2010: Wait for Black Ops

that lang sounds like a fanboy to me and what amazes me is how he's saying that it's "not as smooth as black op's and you should consider waiting" which is the whole point, the game isnt even out yet so how can he compare the two!?

I wonder how much activision is paying these bloggers to flame medal of honor? First of Medal of Honor is NOT Call of Duty so why do you keep reviewing as if it is? Second why do all the reviews keep saying wait and buy Black Ops, oh its not Black Ops? Activision has really stepped up their PR this time!

The online play is fast-paced and intense. Better than Bad Company 2 (with the exception of vehicles). WAY better than MW2. When it says "EA servers down" it is no different than "lost connection / could not migrate host" in MW2. It feels real. The guns feel real. The emotions (single player) that the characters are shown to be experiencing are experienced by you too. (cont.) How can you expect this game to be big when you have England's Defense Secretary dissing on it and military bases banning it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you play as Russian Special Forces killing British Special Forces in COD4? Nazis and Imperial soldiers killing U.S. soldiers in CODWaW? Renegade enemy combatants / Russians killing U.S. Marines and Navy SEALs in MW2? Give me a break.

Played this game and thought it was great. Noobs will hate it because they are expecting either BFBC or COD, it is neither. If you get that out of your head then its a pretty decent game.

MW2 left such a bad taste especially the PC version with all the hacking, killed the game.
MOH is a nice change to playing the COD series Its a good game, face it no game is worth $60 bucks and I wanted my money back many times for MW2 because of the crap spawns, bad hosts, hackers and steam problems. But guess what I had fun with it and moved on.
Same old story some people are going to like it and some not, get over it.

I have to agree with everyone who liked the game. I liked MW2 but felt like it was just a rush fest, I like how you have to use cover in MOH in order to get anything done. I wish they had prone of multi play but thats the only complaint so far! Saving the story for later tho, so haven't even touched single play!

Well just finished my 1st 24 hours on MOH .game plays well no server kick offs here in uk , but I was looking for a more tactical shooter I'm bored with the run and Gun and the sprint Perk on MW2 im also bored with the lack maps on BF2 , and here we have a in between-er game ,Graphically good and plays smooth , but lack of maps no VOIP in lobbys , no team mates on the HUD online , if you want to play as 4 man team tactics online you can only talk to your mates once the game has started its very hard to play as team without your mates showing on the HUD . but the overall game is very good and like other people have said its not MW2

if you want to run like a silly ass slashing and shooting keep playing MW2 , if you want to play as 4 man Clan keep with BF2 , If ya want to play online on your own keeping ya head down then MOH does it as well .

This game is AWFUL! I had to laugh at the campaign, i’ve never played a game so short and i’ve completed all of the call of duty games which got much stick for this especially mw2. It’s too much like CoD to be unique and not enough like it to be any good. The mp maps are tiny and totally predictable as you practically spawn on top of each other. The classes are dull and restrictive, the weaponry disappointing about the only good thing I can say is that the graphics are well done. I had high hopes for this game being a battlefield fan and just find myself feeling like i’ve been waiting for a Christmas present I thought was awesome and opening a pair of socks. Of course this is just my opinion and I’m sure some will love it but I really really don’t and will be trading it in at the first available opportunity.

Youll find out the hard way how good a game is if you get it on the release date, as i did with MoH. The overall game is buggy. Ive had to restart from checkpoints a few times, as my teammates either disappear or freeze up. Even one point I had to lob a grenade at a teammate in order to get him unstuck from the terrain. The story is by far lacking, and hard to keep interest in. Few weapons to use, at least, fewer than a lot of the other games out right now. if you need ammo, its as far as the guy next to you unless youre using an enemy weapon. Even when your squad is “running low on ammo” you can continue to receive a plethora of it on request. Funny. I dont recommend buying this game, instead, rent it so you dont end up feeling cheated like so many of us already do. I guarantee youll finish the game within your first time of renting it. Its boring in my honest opinion. Im not here to slam the game, but they definitely couldve put much more into it.

yes I am a MW2 fan but i also like BFBC2. For me MoH is a big let down. I rushed out to by it Friday, staeted playing late Fri night, went to bed, woke up, played it again and completed it by mid afternoon Saturday, & I can assure you I had breaks! is a good looking game and I really enjoyed the single player, but £45 for a game that lasts 6 hours at most is daylight robbery. As for the Multiplayer – shocking! not a patch on MW2. I will certainly be trading this in for Black Ops.

I got the game and think it's OK. Not great, not terrible. In addition to many others' observations that I share, I don't like (in any game) when there are random places your character can't go in a game. Like you can only down the stairs or over a certain place in the wall where the developers intended you to go. It doesn't make sense that you can't climb over a rock that is the equiv of 2 feet tall, but then you can jump over a wall a minute later. But you can only jump over ONE spot of that wall and nowhere else on that wall. In the heat of fighting the enemy I hate to have to guess–I'm not good enough for that!

And in addition to the mediocre graphics, I occasionally see stuff like a guy walking a foot above the ground or some other glitch. Seems obvious that those kinds of things should be fixed before release.

I like the game. OK, it doesn't thrill me as much as Modern Warfare 2, but it's a completely different style of game and I think it genrally does what it's trying to do pretty well. I must point out how great the sound is; perhaps the sound seems that much better in relation to the (mediocre) graphics, but for me it offers the most realistic sound of any first person shooter I've played. The single player campaign is even more frustrating than the online multiplayer in terms of only being allowed to follow a preset route- this is typical of all the previous MOH games too though, so it's not unusual.
In summary, MOH 2010 is exactly what you expect any MOH game to be; it's never going to be a Modern Warfare style game and it was never intended to be, which is quite refreshing. Coupled with outstanding sound and a good "pick-up-and-play" online set up, this game rates pretty highly in my opinion. In saying that, I'm sure I'll be playing Black Ops a lot more than MOH 2010.
