military and espionage

What a great game. As exciting as Aliens vs. Predator, and full of WWII combat "flavor".

Pluses: (1) Great levels and visuals. Lots of detail, weather effects, etc. Imagine going through a ruined German village during a rainstorm, looking for German squads and snipers. Intense. (2) Enemy AI - very smart (for the most part). They'll take cover, group up, throw handgrenades, spray around corners with a machine gun, etc. This area impressed me. (3) Did I mention handgrenades? This is the first FPS game I played where the enemy used handgrenades to good effect.

Minuses: (1) Sometimes you're with a squad of your own soldiers, and sometimes they're not too bright. On the other hand, they can sometimes show you where the enemy snipers are just by the direction they're firing in. Not a big deal, except for the level where you're supposed to keep them alive... (2) Snipers are tough to kill, sometimes _very_ tough. And one level is almost all snipers - kind of a sniper alley - and very, very difficult. I finally had to resort to a walk-through to find out at least the general area where the snipers were.

All in all, a very good game. Multiplayer is fun too.

The story and game play of the single player game is one of the best ever. Just the right mix of problem solving and fighting. The game is hard at times, but not so hard it's not fun. It really was just about perfect for me.

However, I do have a few problems with it. No cooperative play has always been a pet peeve of mine and this game is no exception. I don't like spend dozens or even hundreds of hours going through a game by myself, I want to enjoy it with a buddy or two. This is why I only gave it only 4 stars. If you don't care about cooperative play then the game is definitely a 5 star game.

As for multiplayer online play I found the game good, but not great. It just doesn't have the speed and action as well as the fun factor of a game like Unreal. For multiplayer I would give the game 3.5 stars.

Medal of Honor Allied Assault is a fairly good game. The combat situations are fairly realistic, along with the sound affects, and once again a great music score.

Gameplay: I though the gameplay of allied Assult was pretty fun. I mean how could running around shooting-up Nazi's NOT be fun? Though the combat in general is pretty realistic for a game, once again the running around by yourself killing 250 Nazi's isn't. It's pretty much impossible if you not at a machine-gun nest in real life. If Allied Assault had more combat with your brothers-in-arms that would rock! Which I have heard there is in Spearhead, Allied Assault's expansion. The controls were good for me, but if find there not for yourself they can be customizied. Which is very handy. Most of the levels in Allied Assaul are fun. From peration Torch to Operation Overlord and more.

Score/Sound Effects: Wonderful. The sounds of the the gun and everything are realistic. And like al MOH games the score is great.

Graphics: The graphics are a bit dated. Not the best but thhere okay.

Multiplayer: Awsome! You can play as Axis or Allies and there are plenty of maps. plus you can choose your player model.

Overal: Well there are a few things I dont like, I think all-in-all it's worth it's mone and will provide fun for sometime!
