To short

It not a great game but it is very good.The best game out for the pc in a long time which is not really saying much.My main gripe is it is way to short of a game for the amount of money being charged for it.I would suggest waiting a short awhile and buy it from sellers on amazon.It wont take long for two reasons.The game is so short the average player can finish it in about ten hours and there is not much in the way of replay value.I still think pc gamming is slowley becoming obsolete.The consoles are taking over.Reason why,To match the visual effects a 400 dollar console offers you would need an extreamly high quallity gamming pc costing around 5 to 6 thousand dollars.And then keep upgrading the graphics card every couple of years.Oh,buy the way a top of the line card costs more than a gamming console.I just went to systems req lab and checked out how well my system will run Crysis.It will but just a little over minimum.The only problem is I have XP and to run at recomended I will have to change to Vista OP.So that is another reason pc gaming will become obsolete.To run pc games in the future not only will people have to keep updating expensive graphic cards but will have to change there op system to keep up with the newer games.THAT SUCKS,I THINK I HAVE HAD IT WITH PC GAMES.I THINK I WILL GO WITH THE CONSOLES MYSELF.

Very Entertaining, well worth the money

I find it difficult to believe that gamers bash games based on computer performance issues. This game does require a pretty decent graphics card and CPU to run, but this is to be expected. This is nothing new in the realm of PC gamming. If you can't keep up with the technology requirements, then stick with your console.

This is by far the best metal of Honor in this series. Graphics are very well done and AI is challenging. Replay value is high and game play seems less linear then past metal of honor games. I have an NVIDIA 7600gt with a 1.86 Intel Duo chip, 2 gigs of ram, and a fidelity extreme gamer sound card. I'm able to push full graphics at the 1280 resolution with no delays. I look forward to upgrading to the 8 series of NVIDIA so I can replay later on with increased resolution.

Definitely download the demo before purchasing the full version to determine how it will run.

empty game box!

I pre-ordered this item in early August. I received it today. It did not include the game disks. It only came with a copy of Battlefield 2. What gives!!??

I have been looking forward to playing this game. I now have thrown away $49.99. I should have just waited until today and physically driven down to BestBuy or something. I feel like a fool.

I just called Amazon cust. support and I was able to get a refund.

COMES WITH NO GAME

If you like Playing Multiplayer this is the best Game ever made!! Well worth the Wait!! Servers will be up in a week or 2 but alot of people are hosting them to Test. AWESOMEEEE!!!!! The deaths of soldiers are so realistic it puts CoD2 to shame. The graphics are out of this world, just make sure you have a good CPU to play, with a great Video card. This game is the MOHAA on Steroids and will be around for years to come.

Choppy gameplay

I have a very good computer that exceeds the requirements for this game. I have an Nvidia 7800 256MB PCI express card with a Pentium4 3.4ghz processor. I also have 2 gigs of ram. No matter what option I choose the gameplay gets choppy. I even lowered the graphics settings to the very lowest and it was still choppy where high action is taking place. There are also very few missions in the single player campaign. I am also not enjoying the lack of a quick save in Medal of Honor Airborne. It has a checkpoint system that really takes away from the enjoyment factor. I think I would still rather play the original Call of Duty or Battlefield 2 for a war game instead of Medal of Honor Airborne. They really need a patch to fix the choppiness of this game.

Intense

This is easily one of MOH's best games. Yes, you do need a suitable computer to play it, but if you tone down the audio quality and a few of the video effects, it will run ok. The graphics are very good, but what I find most enjoyable is that you can run around anywhere in the arena of action and attack from different areas. Many complain the weapons are harder to use because you have to zoom onto the target (right mouse button) and fire, and because the machine gun bursts (flames) degrade the view; but I think these features make the game more realistic. Another aspect that I think is an improvement is the save routine; it's automatic after a checkpoint is reached. Now, unlike with earlier MOH games, you'd better be careful. No more rushing forward and firing away at a target following a quick save. Now you HAVE to take your shot and pull back for cover before you're hit. Again, this is more realistic. You're rarely alone on the battlefield with guys around you barking orders and conversing back and forth. It is a different game than earlier versions of MOH, but very, very good. I'm having a great time with it. It exceeded my expectations and time flies when you're playing.

The Best Sh#$ to come out in ages

Overall, this game should be a 6 out of a 5. The gameplay, graphics, exceed alot of war games out there, especially COD2. I think the only thing this game needs work on is the multiplayer, which i think EA will take care of. Anyone out there giving this game a rating less than 4 must be smoking something!!

Beware pre-ordering from Amazon

I tried the demo while I waited the full PC Medal of Honor:Airborne PCgame I Pre-Ordered from Amazon. Demo was good I found online but I held off final thoughts until THE game arrived. I could not wait as this franchise has not issued an new game to MOH in years!

What did Amazon send me? An empty Game Demo Box with a CD for some tired old game not related to the MOH franchise!!

An empty box!!!!!!!!! Amazon sent me a box without the game!

No Medal of Honor:Airborne for PC. Now I have to wait for two weeks or more to, hopefully, get the full game per their refund standards.

I know Amazon will make the credit and all but they need to set up the QC process better. Imagine if I had bought an iPhone only to get an empty box to be filled in at a later date? Come on, I preordered so I would be one of the first with the game and early ones online and now they took that away from me.

I am so disappointed. Hoepfully, the replacement will be here soon even though Amazon charged me a long time ago for the game.

Even with the game, if it gets here, I will still feel 'shorted' by the Amazon experience. Why don't they just Fed-X the replacment game now? Trust me, I already sent it back to the post office minutes after getting an empty game box.

Step up Amazon, do something better to enrich a customer experinece that so far is negative. Fed X the replacement.

Great game, a few quirks, but still awesome..

Anyway, the actual game is great. I think it's the best Medal of Honor to come out to date. Graphics are great, gameplay takes some getting used to but it's great as well, and the whole parachuting into different locations/reaching checkpoints to save the game/unlocking different weapon features as your experience with them increases is really well thought out/more realistic. No more quick saving every 5 seconds so you can "bum rush" the next objective as many times as needed without consequence while growing more aware of the exact position the enemy is in with each pass! There are still a few annoying little quirks that have been present ever since the Allied Assault days, like getting shot THROUGH WALLS when near corners. For example, you are peaking around a corner, an enemy spots you/begins shooting, you quickly stop peaking and get back behind the wall, yet somehow you still see bullet tracers coming right at you and get shot 2 or 3 times while behind a WALL! I understand the occasional ricochet, but it happens almost EVERY TIME! It's not that big of a deal, unless you are really low on health, so overall I'd say it's a great gaming experience. You need to have a real nice PC to run this game at it's full potential, but that's of course the way PC gaming goes. (It's one of the factors that drives the PC hardware market!) I know it might be a pain at times, but when it comes down to it nothing beats using a mouse/keyboard for controls and the vastly superior resolutions of PC games as opposed to consoles. Consoles may be less of a hassle in this aspect, but they will never look as nice/have the control system of a PC. Consoles also require "Xbox Live" subscriptions or whatever to play online with other people. That stinks! With that said, if you do get a chance to play this game on a nice PC, you will be absolutely hooked like I am. I'm already on my second run through the Single Player game, then it's on to multi-player. Highly recommended! P.S. I've played this game on both Vista and XP on my machine. Vista, with it's higher overhead, just does not run it as well as XP does. That might be part of the reason behind some peoples' "choppy gameplay" reviews. If you still experience problems in XP, try updating your video and sound card drivers. Some sound cards alone are incompatible and been known to cause problems. If all else fails, turn down the sound quality and give it a try.
