I realized I had this sitting in my draft’s folder for about a month and I never posted it. I played Medal of Honor over a week period on an XBOX 360, with my 32” TV and my Turtle Beach headphones.
CAMPAIGN
The annoying:
- Characters stuck in spots.
- Areas don’t move forward unless some hidden dude behind a wall is killed (who doesn’t come out to find you, or make any effort to hint that he exists)
- The audio triggers don’t trigger at the right time.. (tho when it works, its awesome).
- Zero explanation on how to use some of the features (target missiles, etc).
The awesome
- Campaign looks wonderful most of the time.
- Guns feel hefty and sound great!
- Controller layout is good (I like the L thumper for other gun, and Y for quick pistol draw).
- Super cool sliding move to hide behind rocks.
No deal-breaker, but no deal-maker either:
- Story is nothing out of the ordinary, although very patriotic.
- Hidden HUD.
MULTIPLAYER
The annoying:
- Its like playing Battlefield Bad Company 2
- Everything in the screen is so small and blended together that you can’t tell apart the building wall from the dude standing RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!
- The controls are different in multiplayer.
- The guns are puny.
- Can’t go prone.
- Not that many maps.
- Matching servers suck.
- Absolutely no information on how to use the “Rewards”.
The awesome:
- No screaming 12 year olds playing the game.
