User Rating: 8 | Medal of Honor: Allied Assault - Breakthrough PC
There is little to say about Medal of Honor: Allied Assault Breakthrough that could not have been said about the original game. It offers varied mission objectives, engaging gameplay, and intense multiplayer in an authentic presentation that once again raises the bar for World War II shooters. Its graphics and audio are somewhat outdated nowadays, but were quite good for its time. The multiplayer community is as large as ever, with literally hundreds of servers to choose from at any given time. The only real downside to this game is that it is an expansion, not a full-length stand-alone game; therefore, if you want to play it, you must own Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and even then you will only be getting about seven to eight hours of extra gameplay. When it comes to Breakthrough, there is admittedly very little to set it apart from the original.
However, in this case, more of the same is not necessarily a bad thing. If you played the original Medal of Honor and you enjoyed it, you will definitely enjoy Breakthrough. If you never played Medal of Honor but think you might be interested, buy the Medal of Honor: Allied Assault War Chest; it is a worthwhile investment, if only for the extra 15 hours of gameplay provided by the expansions. If you hated Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, rest assured that the Breakthrough expansion adds nothing new or original enough to make you change your mind. Highly recommended.
