Get Your Learn On

Medal of Honor Frontline is a very entertaining game that can be enjoyed without any historical insight on the part of the player. However, massive attention to detail rears its head in the Medal of Honor games much more than in most others. Famed Hollywood director Steven Spielberg created the series shortly after his film Saving Private Ryan. A great deal of effort went into re-creating towns, bridges, weapons, and just about every other aspect of this game realistically. You'll be fighting in some of the most intense battles to take place in World War II, battles that shaped the course of history. Your role as Lieutenant James Patterson in them is fictional, but the exotic locales and events that take place are more often than not very real. A short crash course about the history and planning of Operation Market Garden and D-Day, as well as the history surrounding the Nijmegen Bridge--also the focal point of the classic WWII movie A Bridge Too Far--is sure to make the game even more enjoyable for players by making them feel like they're really there, making a difference.

Hear It All

Something else that can only add to the fun is an enhanced audio experience. The Medal of Honor series has had outstanding audio since its debut, but Frontline marks a high point in this department than most other games can only aspire to. It has an inspired score, as well as visceral sound effects and great voice acting. This game supports Dolby Surround sound, so if you've got a stereo that supports it, this game will definitely put it to good use. Even if this option is unavailable to you, cranking the volume on your television is still in order.
