Medal of Honor: Lame

User Rating: 6 | Medal of Honor: Airborne PS3
True, there are lots of WWII games out there, and there's a great number of them that are duds, such as this game. If a developer can't put out a great game, it shouldn't even bother.

There is no point to the whole Airborne mania in gaming. The only thing that separates this game from the others is that you get to jump out of a plan and land somewhere on a map, that's it. You might as well label it Medal of Honor and slap a number at the end of the title. The cutscenes are poorly done, and training? All you have to do is jump out 3 times and you're done? How about going over the controls? I spent awhile teaching myself how things work on the first level. Even if you land outside of the safe zone, it doesn't mean instant death, you can fight your way around. There are ammo crates scattered in key locations, so you'll never run out of ammo. If you're a gamer who values resource management, such as myself, then this is a title to avoid, you might as way go blasting away - except the accuracy is very poor. Realistic, yes, but at the same time more degrading considering how the graphics don't contribute to making the game look any better when you're peering down your sights. Poor visuals, poor soundtrack, poor gameplay.

The only positive aspect of the game is that once you've managed to learn how things work, you can run around, duck behind cover, and the game isn't very linear, which is great for gamers who want freedom. If you don't mind buying a game that looks terrible on the PS3, then this may be up your alley, but if not, then I'd advise you to save your hard earning money and look elsewhere.
