We were initially surprised at MOH:FL’s lack of multiplayer options – especially considering the huge success of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault on the PC, and the inclusion of a somewhat limited two-player option in the previous PSX games (Limited yes, but nevertheless included!).

Once you get your teeth into the game though, the emphasis on the single player experience becomes clearly apparent....

I just got this yesterday after reading the review and I'm absolutly loving it. I don't really play FPS's but ever since I've gotten into Counter strike I've found a few that I've liked and this onr is the best yet.

Just one question. It says there are 19 missions. So whenever you finish an area and you get the "The fight continues" screen, is that the end of one of the 19 missions or when it actually says mission accomplished?

That is the end of one of the missions.
Hope you enjoy more than I did. I finished this a couple of weeks ago and altho a good game was nothing different from the 2 PS1 versions, graphics aside.

Obviously you haven't played the PC version yet then! Get it now cos it's all that and SO MUCH MORE! I'm slightly biased but imo MOHAA is the best damn multiplayer game out there atm hands down:D!!! It also has a very wicked-looking expansion pack coming out around December which will include a whole new single-player campaign plus English, Russian and I think, Dutch troops, weapons and dialogue which you can use in the multiplayer game, etc as well as 12 new multiplayer maps;)! More info in the GP MOHAA Forum.

yeah, i really rate the MOH PS2 version. Its IMO the best single player console FPS ive played.
Havent really given the PC version a good go yet. Not sure whether i should get into that or wait for Battlefield 1942 to satisfy my online FPS needs.

great review -only one small comment about it.
On the first page you say "As with the previous games, you play as Lieutenant Jimmy Patterson of the 116th Infantry".
Where actually in the second game (MOH:Underground) you play a female lead Manon from the French resistance. Sorry but im picky :)

Yea, great review. The review inspired me to buy the game and I havn't regretted that one bit.

Inf - I really want to play the PC version because I was told that nearly all the levels are different. Plus you have multi-player. But the problem is I need a better graphics card :(

If you want multi player gaming then you never buy a console, but a PC. I have never liked multiplayer games on any console, as the split screen is confusing, and so distracting.

I find few Multiplayer games on consoles work, as a console was never designed as a multigame platform, but a single player platform only.

The only multiplayer games any good on a console are ones with no split screen, as many games in split screen suck, ethier run slower, or detail is missing etc to keep up the speed.

I can never get used to split screen multiplayer console games, looks horrible, and so distracting, as the other players screen as well as yours on the same TV is so distracting, and causes consusion to who is who on the screen, so think MOH as a multiplayer game would suck if it was split screen anyway.

I am afraid for multiplayer games the PC rules over the consoles as far as multiplaying gaming goes.

Denodan did you just repeat the same thing over and over so that your post
would look longer?

8-player games of soccer would never work on a console, I agree. And don't get me started on whether a console will be able to ever pit 6 racers against each other in a driving simulator:eek:

I was going to tell you to stop patronising us, only I realised it's you, and that you're not actually capable of that.

I agree, denodan criticises everything. If its not how PES sucks compared to Fifa because of the more realistic grass, its how MOH PSX sucks compared to Goldeneye. I'm all for free speech and all but someone needs to silence this moron.

I knew there'd be someone!!!!!

Yes you do play as Manon, but you switch to a male character part way through, who if memory serves me, is unnamed. I'm assuming its Lt Patterson. :)

Denodan, i worry about you.

You know, i really worry about you sometimes Denodan.

Everyone, i really do sometimes worry about Denodan.
