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.

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.

AWESOME!!!

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.

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.

a lot of fun!

intense action. great ambiance. more in your face combat than i remember at times in COD or COD2. dying a lot but having a great time slugging it out. sometimes, we can analyze and think too much about the qualities of a game. get it for a good price and play it!

update: the game is great. i play for 35-45 minutes at a time so it's lasting well for me. just great fun. i heartily recommend it - especially if you can get it used or through amazon marketplace. well worth around 30 bucks.

new update: almost finished with level 5 on easy. i'm really gonna miss this game when it's over. :( very entertaining.

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!!

Very high detail graphic PC video game. Land your own destination to primary target area that will process save game faster. Of course, good fighting against German soldiers. How about that video game's fun rate: Good.

I'm really surprised to see some of the negative reviews of this game on this forum. I'm a big fan of World War II first-person shooters, and this is by far the best one I've played. The graphics are fantastic, the missions are challenging but fun, and I love the fact that the entire game is much less linear than previous Medal of Honor games. Being able to choose where to drop is a great feature. The enemies are far more intelligent than in other shooters, so you never know exactly what to expect. Overall I had a lot of fun playing it, and hope there's an expansion for it soon.

Lots of fun

I don't play that much but I got really hooked by this game. I enjoyed it a lot; I couldn't wait to get home from work to play. As usual, the second time around in the medium level was even more fun to play. Great graphics. Awesome and very elaborated architecture (not only the game's but the scenario's!).
