1UP gives 6.5/10 to Medal of Honor: Airborne

It takes a better-than-average effort for a WWII shooter to even get noticed anymore. Such is the state of things for a genre that has both delivered amazingly immersive cinematic experiences but has also taken gamers back to some battles so many times that the names of obscure French villages sound familiar. More often than not, discussions of WWII-era overload come back to the Medal of Honor series. Medal of Honor: Airborne makes a solid first impression, enough so that it avoids the passing dismissal given to previous games in the franchise.

After few 8s and 7s (Specially 7 from Edge and 9 from GameDaily), 6.5 seems a bit low but closer to what I was expecting.

I don't know. I played the demo.
It felt so "Been there done That". Didn't even finish it because it was so boring.
Nothing new in either graphics or gameplay.

Would wait for CoD4 which looks to much more promising.

I already got this game payed off, but im still on the fence on picking it up. I think i may go rent the game for a day. If i still like it i will go get my copy. If i don't i will just carry my money over to another preorder! From the Demo i played it looked fun, but i need to know if the online is as good first before i say i will take it.

Lightning Mr Bubbles6123d ago

You got it paid off but not picking it up? That's just losing money.

deadpreacher6123d ago (Edited 6123d ago )

No not at all. I paid it off from my Two Worlds preorder. Once i heard about how bad Two Worlds was i went and rented it first & saw it was bad and put it on this game. Now i might just do the same here! Just as long as i don't open the case i get a full refund on my money. Yet since i didn't even pick it up i can carry the money onto a new game easy or just get my money back.

They also gave warhawk the same score, I'll wait till IGN give them a review.

I haven't played a medal of honor since the original one so for me I might consider it.

MOH is old news. Brothers in Arms is the new WWII franchise of choice.

This game was great all the way up to the end when they introduced some supernatural elements.

Medal Of Honor would've been a great series but they set it up to failure by launching it when BF(insert number) came out. They did the same crap with Titanfall last year. IDK wtf EA be thinking at times, why not have one launch in the fall the other in the spring boosh now you have the WHOLE year covered.

Mulando2428d ago

The problem was, they released a really bad Medal of Honor game.
But maybe someday this game franchise will be used again, but well .. currently there are way to many shooters out there.

C-H-E-F2428d ago

Yea agreed, only time will tell, i'm still hoping and praying for a Socom reboot. :(

Ausbo2428d ago

This game was not “Bad” in anyway. It just couldn’t compete with COD and other shooters out there

Father__Merrin2428d ago

no its not free to download its part of the xbox live gold subscription. my idea of free to download is when they gave away rainbow six vegas 360. thats what you call a free game they have given away

OldGuyStillGaming2428d ago

You’re bringing up old shit for whatever reason
But as everyone already knows all the 360 titles you keep even once you stop your gold subscription
So yes it’s free as long as you’re a subscriber

InTheLab2428d ago

Old but one of the best shooters ever made in the military campaign style. Open ended with multiple objectives and leveling up weapons. For it's time, this game should have brought back MoH but the modern era ruined it!
