Product Description
Medal of Honor: Airborne retains the Medal of Honor series' historical accuracy and authenticity, but redefines Medal of Honor by introducing players to an entirely new way of experiencing a WWII FPS - notably the fully interactive Airborne experience. Medal of Honor: Airborne sees players step into the boots of Boyd Travers, Private First Class of the 82nd Airborne Division and engage in battles throughout Europe. From Airborne's rocky beginnings in Sicily to war-winning triumphs in Germany, each mission in this latest Medal of Honor begins behind enemy lines, with a fully interactive airdrop. View the entire operation from the air, and then control your parachute to choose your landing spot. On the ground, gather your senses and assess the terrain and earn those war medals! A wide variety of authentic, customisable weapons are at your disposal, each with distinct characteristics. Choose your path in Airborne's free roaming FPS environment. Medal of Honor: Airborne continues to ensure that the ideals and integrity of the prestigious congressional Medal of Honor are accurately reflected in the Medal of Honor game series. The producers sought counsel from expert sources to make certain Airborne is historically accurate and as true to the WWII Airborne experience as possible. Serving as a military spokesperson for Medal of Honor Airborne, Capt. Dale Dye, who has worked as the Military Technical Advisor for the last 7 Medal of Honor games, has helped create a truly authentic Airborne experience.

It may be the game that popularised the whole concept of first person shoot `em-ups set during World War II, but as the years have gone by, the Medal of Honor series has found itself besieged by more and more copycats trying to offer ever more realistic simulations of the era. This is the first Medal of Honor game made specifically for the next generation of consoles though and finds you taking the roles of both pathfinder Eddie La Point and Private Boy Travers - paratroopers in the U.S. 82nd Airborne Division. As such, you'll end up with a whistle stop tour of enemy hotspots in Sicily, France, Holland and Germany. The game takes its paratrooper motif serious too as the game levels are big enough that you actually have some control over where exactly you land and as a consequence what tactics you choose to employ.

The game also tries to give you as much freedom as possible with the weapons you use, with each being customisable with authentic parts which you can find during missions. Even the missions are as open ended as possible, as you're given up to a dozen objectives, of which only a few have to be tackled in any sort of order. One side benefit this creates is that the developers have been forced to drastically improve the enemy artificial intelligence so that they can react intelligently to your attacks, instead of just relying on the pre-scripted movements of the earlier games. There's also a stronger tactical element than ever before as you monitor the back and forth of battle between all the forces on the map. As over-familiar as WWII shooters have become, there looks to be enough new ideas here to keep even the most jaded virtual soldier happy.

I agree with previous reviewers !! Dont review till you play the game , or at least the working demo !! I downloaded MOH Airbourne demo and played through all the difficulty levels over and over .. brilliant game , graphics are ok but the game play is fantastic and it just feels right. Upgrading weapons for good shooting is inspired as is the excellent map. Hope the full game is as good and really hope the online game has lots of options.


5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable...WWII Shooters are BACK   August 26, 2007

Hands down the best demo i have ever played, i played all of last night (about 6 hours, becasue if you keep restarting the mission after blowing up the last AA gun, you can keep upgrading your weapons which takes alot of time............AWESOME) and I am Surprisingly more psyched about the upgrading every single weapon feature(including granades), and massive open battlefields (aproach any objectives any way you want...........just screams replay value) than the whole airdropping thing.
All in all i hope the entire game is as good if not better than the demo, then i'll give it another 5 stars heehee

Medal of Honour Airbourne is one of the few games I have purchased over the past 10 yrs that you I didnt get fed up with playing.I like how the weapons are very authentic and realistic, and the ways you upgrade them as you play the game,the various scenes are brilliant too. You can tell a lot of time and effort has gone into all the small things that make a good game great and this is definately one of the GREATS.!Once youve completed it at the beginner stage try it at the expert level and experience the game at its full potential.Yes its hard,but we wouldnt pay all this money for a game we could complete in one easy go.ENJOY!!!!!

Airbourne is a brilliant all round game. the graphics are superb. The guns are realistic and the story is smooth and believable. there are no complaints about this game in my book. maybe the best in the series and one of the best games on xbox 360 this year. A great game and a must have for gamers this year.
