Medal of Honor: Allied Assault: Breakthrough has gotten some bad reviews in the past so I've decided to set the record straight. Yes the game was dissapointing but no, overall Medal of Honor: Allied Assault: Breakthrough is still worth buying if you have Allied Assault and Spearhead. Gameplay - Breakthrough starts you off in the battle of Kasserine Pass with a lot of action going on around you. Sadly, it doesnt keep this up for long and probably had some major issues when testing because the lack of ammo is very disheartening. Overall though, it retains enough of previous Medal of Honor games to get a decent rating. Don't expect much when compared to Spearhead but enough to still have some fun. Graphics - When Breakthrough was released Allied Assault was starting to look a bit dated when compared to games such as Doom 3 and particularly Half-life 2 demoed at E3 2003. Still, Allied Assault was a great looking game for its time and Breakthrough holds its own when compared to other games of 2003, not THAT far behind Game of Year Call of Duty. Sound - Breakthrough retains all the great music and sound effects you've come to know and love from Allied Assault and other Medal of Honor games. Some of the new sound though, isn't quiet up to par with previous releases of Medal of Honor.
