Great for the most part, but with a few flaws |
| Tom Brookes from Worcester, England says (21/Apr/2003): |
Medal of Honour: Frontline is a great game. Not only because of its superb graphics, brilliant sound and easy controls, but also because of the great enjoyment you get from it. Though cursed with many annoying glitches (such as one level where you are supposed to destroy 2 tanks and they do not appear) and annoying loading times, it is probably the best PS2 shooter around. All the levels are based on fact,detailed and beautifully captured with the superb graphics and the enemy AI is average. There were only 2 problems that really annoyed me and forced me to give it and 8. Firstly, it is extremely hard to kill 90% of you enemy and retain 75% health in order to win a single gold medal. As there are around 20 levels in the game (which is a good thing), it takes a long time to get all medals and so the game gets repetetive and boring. Secondly, it got so dull after a while, it lost its charm and my appreciation for it, so it will probably only last you 3 months. Still, I found that Medal of Honour: Frontline was a brilliant game and deserves to be crowned the best shooter on the PS2. Do not bother buying any James Bond games when you can buy this, but if you have an Xbox, get Halo instead.

Very well written! |
| ALL TIME GAMER! from houston,tx,U.S. says (10/Jan/2003): |
This game is very fun also like goldenye and battlefield 1942 mix. I play counter-strike,day of defeat,and battlefield 1942 on the pc, but the A.I. on MOH is very REAL! like real players! I love it when they pick up grenades and throw it back at you and stop to reload!

One of the best shooting games for 2002. |
| Alex Ray from Hemstead NY USA says (7/Jan/2003): |
Medal of Honor is an amazing game that has a cross combo of the 007 series and Battlefield:1942. A game with fantastic detail and even better game play. People that play the 007 games will not find anything least then the 8 I gave it. Plus this game as some real gun work for example, the MP40 isn't very dependable and not good when that's your last weopon, also it's a really empty's out your ammo and is better off as a room-clearer and get in the way of picking weopons. It's even better with the A.I., because they don't do the same thing when you hit a different spot and sometimes they'll do suicide by running into the enemy side in a fight and they won't shot you if you run into fire and then hide or they'll chase you if they don't see you but this game has it's drawbacks like only three of the nineteen missions alow you to fight along side Allied soldiers. it does not feel like there are a lot weopons.Other then that this is a really good game with great gameplay and soundtrack. If you are a hardcore gamer then it's best if you rent it.

fantastic game!!! |
| Ben from England (birmingham) says (31/Dec/2002): |
I played this game at my mates house and i thought it was an excellent game as soon as i started to play the first mission. I haven't bought it yet myself but i will be getting it very soon. The graphics are superb, i loved the first mission on the beach i thought it was very realistic to the wartimes going off films i have watched. The only bad point i have is that it doesn't have multiplayer apart from that it is a FANTASTIC GAME!!

anybody who played this game deserves the medal of honor |
| nicholas from Beverly Massachucets says (31/Dec/2002): |
This game is so awesome.The graphics are so convincing.The germans actully react realisticly.I found out about this game from my cousins game magazine.A week later I rented it.I LOVE IT!This is the best fps{first person shooter}ever.Anyone who plays it deserves the medal of honor.The soundtrack is superb.My favorite music is from operation repunzal.My favorite level is clipping thier wings.My friends and I call operation repunzal the twitchy guy level because if you shoot the prisoner he twitches.The gameplay is so good,and the frame rate is very fast.The slowest loading time is 7 seconds.The lifespan is good.Not too long not too short.The fun factor is about 150.It is so origanal,it might as well be it's own game seris.This game is so good,I can't wait until the next,which I think is medal of honor greanada,which is an island in the pacific,I think.In my opinion,you should rent this first,because it is a little frustrating at times.One more thing about the graphics.The weapons textures are so realistic.Unlike the weapons from the origanals that have one color,these things have textures that tell you what they have been through!And the sounds are so realistic.I heard that they took the actual sounds and changed a little bit.This game is overall awesome.But don"t take my word for it.Get out there and play.What are you waiting for?Shoo!

THIS GAME WILL ROCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!!! |
| Bad Andy from Lewisburg, TN USA says (14/Dec/2002): |
This game was an impulse buy - and what a great one! Sweet-Mother-of-Pearl this game rules!!! The game's levels are as advertised - immersive. The details, the graphics, the uniforms, the guns, the sound FX, the TOTALLY CUSTOMIZABLE CONTROLS, the soundtrack, the story, the historical accuracy, it all ads up to be the finest, the ultimate fps I've played on ps2 (I have yet to play Timesplitters 2)! It's not too easy, it's not too hard, and there really is AI! And the enemies don't die the same way everytime! There's got to be some 20 or so different dieing animations! They actually have animations for reactions to where they're shot! Somehow the game seems to pull off a surreal WWII experience without using any blood! I bought it early this summer and am still playing it in December more than I play GTA3 or GTA:VC! The game reigns supreme over ps2 fps! KUDOS, EA!

The best WWI I game for any counsel so far,Brillant and Superb! |
| Joshua BonHomme from Cleveland/TN/The one and only U.S.of A says (9/Dec/2002): |
The MOH serise is the best serise of WWII games on the market today!So far MOH Frontlines is the best game of them all,its the best game I've played since the first MOH came out.This game will keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time.The enemy AI is extreamly good,and will give something to fight alone with the allied war effert.The back ground is superb,accuretly depicting battle feild conditions.Another plus is,that all the weapons and missions are extreamly accurate to WWII,all of the 9 missions with 20 sub missions hold true to the war in the European theater.The only falt I fined in MOH Frontlines is the ineractiveness in the levels,there's just not enough you can get involed with other than the mission.Witch my be a good thing for some of us.But as I had said before,MOH is the best you can get on the market for any game counsel!I strongly eurge you to buy this game,don't bother even renting it!youll be hook the first fime you play it.And if you enjoy this game,try Battle Feild 1942 its another great WWII game,but this is only for the computer counsel.

An Excellent Game, for a few hours |
| Trey from Virginia, USA says (1/Dec/2002): |
First of all, this game has great graphics and sound. The orchestra is brilliant, and the levels are great(especially the D-Day one). You'll love this game, but then suddenly, it is over. The replay value in this game is little to none unless you are a hardcore MOH fanatic who "has" to get all Golds in every mission. It took awhile for me to adjust to the controls, and i was wishing for a keyboard and a mouse through out the first five missions. Most console fanatics won't have this problem though. I highly recommend that you go and rent this title immediately. You will enjoy it. If you're looking for a perfect FPS though, this is certainly not it. GO GET HALO! NOW!!!!!

Medal Of Honor! |
| Robert Oakes from Lincoln Park, USA says (8/Nov/2002): |
I LOve the entire MOH series. From it's early days on the PSX to the Multi player wars online with Allied Assualt. The PS2 has brought out the best of both, The Arcadian action as well as Graphic realisam( who needs blood). And the Sound track is excellant, I somtimes find myself booting up Frontline just to listen to the music. (I'll buy the soundtrack yet!) As for the history as a major WWII history buff nothing comes closer ( yes the HO-IX is a real plane! usally goes under GO-229 or HO-229. It's at the Smithsonian if you don't belive me!)

Medal of Honor Frontline is the best game ever . |
| Matthew from Wake Forest , NC USA says (17/Oct/2002): |
I think Medal of Honor Frontline is the best ww11 game ever. Ilike that the men looked so real. I also liked the guns. The best are the BAR and the Tompson submachine gun. I also liked the paratroopers. I also liked the landingcraft and how they were made. I also liked how you made the ships look real.

Made me stop and think about what they did. |
| A gamer from Prescott,Ontario,Canada says (11/Oct/2002): |
This game is one of the most amazing games I have ever played. The graphics are so crisp and clear that you could make ever uniform,weapon and face on ever singal soldier. The sound was so real I found myself ducking everytime I heard an explosion. Although the controls were a little hard to get a hang of, once I learned them I was unstopable. In general I think any body who can should go out and buy this game it's just fantastic!!!

The real thing |
| Dutch from Nijmegen, The Netherlands says (24/Sep/2002): |
I'm actually from Holland, Nijmegen and i can tell you folks that this game is THE REAL THING!!! I went down the bridge of my hometown wich (thanks to Jimmy Patterson?) has survived the war and it is so correct all the way. BUY IT, PLAY IT, AND YOU'LL LOVE IT!

WOW!!!! |
| Sean from Barrie Ontario Canada says (27/Aug/2002): |
Now this is the best game I have ever played in my life. I have never seen a game have detail like that.The amount of work that was put in it is amazing. These people have travled to these places and put us in the history of WW2. They took pictures, looked in books and gathered the sounds of the weapons that was used in the game. These people put us in place of the Soldiers that did this kind of stuff. It would of been good to have multiplayer but that was fine. I also liked the music in the game, it goes with each senario. It would of been better if the game had some blood and limbs falling of for kicks. It's ok though, there was a satisfying dust from there jackets. I liked how there was a different face and uniformes for men. They all had the same detail as the uniformes back then. I have not played any game as fantastic as this!!!

Drop Kick Me!! |
| Joshua S. from Westchester, Ohio USA says (11/Aug/2002): |
I have played many war games from "Tom clancy:Rainbow six," to "Panzer tiger," and MOH with its excellent graphics, gameplay, realistic weapons and its very nice WWII follow up it is the best war game I have ever played. At some points I actually felt like I was in the game playing as Patterson with the sound. I also liked the levels. They were designed well.

Brilliant,but just short of Superb |
| A gamer from South Yorkshire, England says (22/Jul/2002): |
I love the MOH series, and played the previous 2 PSX games to completion. You do get hooked easy and even after completing the game. You want to go back and get the Gold Stars you might have missed. The first level based on the D-day landings is pretty damn nerve-shattering. I sat and played the first sequence and put the controller down with my hands shaking. If you have a surround sound system installed, the atmosphere created is immense. It plays very well, the controls and movements are just about right. The sound is cracking, the graphics are nice and clear. I found a few niggles late on in the game with a bit of jerkiness. Not too sure about the length of the game, I was a little surprised when I completed the last mission. I had expected more. With a lot of patience and care, the game is aout right in terms of difficulty. Some of the missions are long and will take you upto an hour if you take your time and pick of enemies from afar. I would not say it is the best of the PS2 titles. But is certainly the best of its type from what I have seen.

One of the best for PS2 |
| Mike R. from Enfield, NH USA says (19/Jul/2002): |
This game is one of the best I have played on PS2! Since I play alone the multi-player option wasn't a factor. Great graphics story line and just challenging enough to be fun but not frustrating. A must buy for PS2!

Who Gives About #uckn Multiplayer |
| A gamer from USA says (6/Jul/2002): |
This is the best war game ever released for the playstation systems! GREAT graphics almost like you there fighting. This game is awsome the weapons are authenic as well as the uniforms on all the characters. This game is worth the money!

All these great reviews are so true. But.... |
| Jimmy Patterson from Marion AR USA says (3/Jul/2002): |
only 42 days and counting, for the greatest multiplayer/wargame of all time. Thats right I'm talking about Socom. I admitt I absolutely love MOH. but less than a week to complete it. Your better off renting it. As good as this game looks and plays, they should have made it a little longer. Well a lot longer a month would have been cool. They could have taken out some of those history lessons and replaced them with game play. But I am glad I bought it, I love showing it to new people and hearing them say it looks like Saving Private Ryan short of the gore. I feel like this game is the best game out right now, but not for long. You people need to go out and reserve Socom, it will demolish MOH.

All Hail to the King of Console FPS. |
| A gamer from Tennessee, U.S. says (1/Jul/2002): |
This game is an absolutely amazing work of art, from the opening Omaha Beach level to the wide (and accurate) array of WWII era weaponry. The graphics are amazingly detailed, so that every soldier, Allied and Axis, look different, from the guy you just killed a few seconds ago to the one screaming at you in German right now. The sound is some of the best I've ever seen..er, heard. Soldiers yell out in thier own langauges, bullets whiz by in a frighteningly realistic manner, and bombs explode with such force you'll find yourself cringing every time on goes off nearby. The gameplay is the most amazing feature, by far. The enemies act realistically, with some of the best AI I've seen, which is, in my opinion, the trademark of the series. Mission objectives seem like they came straight out of one of the many classic WWII films, with tasks ranging from storming Omaha Beach to infiltrating a German U-Boat to masquerading as a German officer. This game makes you feel like you've stepped into one of the great WWII movies, with just about put everything ranging from Saving Private Ryan to A Bridge Too Far.
