Medal of Honor: Vanguard - PS2

Same old stuff

Yes, its yet another WW2 fps. The only difference is te airborne aspect, which plays a minimal role in the game. Not much is given to change the formulas here, so the choice to get the same game youve played 50 times before is yours.

Game wasn't as good as I thought

Typical Medal of Honor game, just didn't live up to the hype and the graphics were horrible and the multiplayer wasn't all that great....huge let down to the FPS genre. - Jake The Snake

Medal of Honor: Vanguard - PS2

is it as good

im no expert in giving the right kinda rate and i dosn't help if you havn't played it before.The big question is will it live up to to the last game?Will you get your own set of recruits to help?Mini quests in each mission?The abbilty to kill a leader?

Medal of Honor: Vanguard - PS2

Another WWII Shooter

The Medal of Honor series pretty much cemented the WWII shooter genre into the console market with the first one being on the original Playstation and receiving rave reviews. After 11 (or more) different games on consoles, handhelds and PC. This series, and it's genre are tired. The last great MOH game in my opinion was Frontline, and lets face it, there are a truck full of clones, spinoffs, and "we can do that too" games all covering WWII. Vanguard plays well, but is painfully short. Easy to beat in an afternoon. It looks pretty good, although there is the occasional hiccup when a lot is happening. Sound is standard fare for the MOH series, they always sound great. Control is alright, it could be a little more precise. A lot of the time you'll be peering down the ironsights because trying to shoot anything without them is a waste of ammo. Weaponry is the usual as well. M1 Garand, MP40, STG77, Kar98, BAR, Thompson SMG, the occasional Bazooka and of course, grenades. EA claims they added weapon upgrades to this version.....it's extremely limited. A scope for your M1, and extended clips for your Tommy. They don't carry over between missions or campaigns and you pretty much have to trip over them in some obscure spot to find them. No online multiplayer, only offline, and only 4 game types. All in all....in my opinion, another rehash from EA trying to milk every last drop out of a tired franchise and genre. Playable, but rent it, not worth buying.
