Please, for crying out loud, if you like PC shooters, play this game. You won't miss the rocket jumps or the deflector shields, and you'll find yourself playing what could be the best first-person shooter in history. Allied Assault receives, with no hesitation, the highest honor GamePro can award.

Fans of FPS, this game is absolutely necessary to complete your library. It may not have the multiplayer advantages of games such as Unreal Tournament or Counterstrike (yet), but those looking for a solid single-player adventure are in for a treat. You become a soldier fighting in World War II, a single hero who is overshadowed by real enemies amidst an epic backdrop. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is as real as it gets, and the experience it offers is both fun and memorable. It is truly a first-person game, putting the player first. The developers have put together a wonderfully cohesive and intense package, without leaving behind detail or historic realism. I salute those at EA Games and 2015 for bringing this series to the PC, and here's hoping more will follow.

This game made a believer out of me. Never have I seen such a beautiful game! I really couldn't believe the graphical increase in using a more advanced system. I definitely think this is the best game on PC right now, and it's no wonder that Medal of Honor: Allied Assault won Best of E3.

My personal thanks goes out to 2015 and Electronic Arts for showing me why I got into playing games in the first place. It's unbelievable how great this game is. If you have the hardware to run it – the minimum specification is a 700MHz Pentium III and at times the 1.4GHz system I was using would have a slow moment – then this is the game for you. If you buy one game this year, make sure it is Medal of Honor Allied Assault. And make sure you clear a long time on your calendar because once you start, you won't want to stop. After all, your country is depending on you.

This is by far one of the best games I have come across, it is beautiful to look at, fantastic to listen to, and a TOTAL BLAST to play! Yes, it does have some flaws, but all games do, it's for you to decide if the few flaws it does have are going to keep you from enjoying this fantastic shooter.
This one may stay on top of my game pile for a long long time (that spot is usually reserved for some racing game, yup I'm a racer by nature, but I have ten years of military experience also and this game stirred something in me I haven't felt for a long long time......the urge to blow something up! Seriously, do yourself a favor and get this game!

Seldom has a game made me stand up during play and look at the screen in shocked amazement. Likewise, there has NEVER been a game – on console or PC – that has given me such an intense experience, I’ve actually thought I had a glimpse of what war is really like. Such is Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. Any of the standards set in the FPS genre have been simply obliterated by this game. To put it a little bit into perspective, I’d have to say Allied Assault is hands-down the best first-person shooter ever coded. If you hear differently, whomever you’re listening to is either lying, or a complete jackass.

Jamais un shoot n'avait proposé des mises en scène pareilles, une telle ambiance, une telle perfection technique. Certaines missions donnent carrément l'impression d'évoluer au milieu d'un véritable film de guerre, l'interactivité en plus. C'est simple, MOHDA est de loin le meilleur jeu d'action disponible sur PC.

Ferrago Ltd. (play.tm)
Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is the best FPS in years. It's exceptional design succeeds where others fail due to its ability to affect you on a gameplay "fun" level, and a visceral "What if I were REALLY in the middle of this?" emotional level. Bear in mind that this is coming from a veteran gamer who has seen and played it all... twice. It takes that certain something within a product to actually raise the hair on the back of my neck and cause me to back off from the mouse for a moment, and this title delivered exactly that. For some of you, playing this title will clue you in as to what Grandpa has been talking about all these years, and others may actually look at the old man in a completely different way.

Medal of Honor — фильм в игре и игра в фильме. Его прохождение можно записать на кассету и смотреть как классный боевик.

It's always the same: you wait years for a decent World War II first-person shooter and then two turn up at once. Closely chasing the jackbooted heels of Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Allied Assault also employs the Quake III engine in its campaign to defeat the Nazi menace. Unlike its contemporary, Allied Assault is happy to set its version of war in the wet sand of realism, leaving the fantastical extrapolation of Nazi occult-obsession to RTCW. Allied Assault is a perfectly positioned and elegantly executed masterpiece. The graphical standard puts it at the leading edge, neatly filling the time before we will see Unreal II and then the first Doom III-engined games. But in terms of its quietly confident plot and outstanding level design, Allied Assault is also quite simply the best FPS we've seen since Half-Life

Electronic Arts is entering the First-Person Shooter community with Medal of Honor:Allied Assault, a title which plays during World War 2 and is using the Quake 3:Team Arena engine. Quite a promising setup seeing how well Return to Castle Wolfenstein did and as usual, Electronic Arts doesn’t disappoint.

Är du ute efter ett spel som i grunden är en rätt enkel shooter, men som känns som en ordentligt bra film att spela och har precis rätt grad av realism för att kännas autentiskt utan att bli jobbigt, då är Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault precis vad du väntat på. Vill du ha ett nytt Quake eller förväntar dig samma snabba och lättflytande multiplayer som Wolfenstein så blir du nog litet besviken, men jag tror att det medryckande singelplayerläget kommer att gillas av de flesta.

Joissain lehdissä käytettiin kahden vuoden ylisanakiintiö Return to Castle Wolfensteinin yksinpelin ylistämiseen. Mistä nyt superlatiivit, kun Medal of Honor näyttää tylsänpullealle zombijahdille, kuinka toinen maailmansota oikeasti käännetään räiskintäpeliksi?

Remember Raiders of the Lost Ark? If you can, try to imagine that Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones wasn't a fancy professor or archeologist, but instead a special infantry soldier serving his army during WWII. Now imagine a game surrounding his various adventures throughout wartime Europe -- an exciting retelling of his missions, retaining that same cinematic feel.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is qua gameplay wat langzamer, maakt mee gebruik van stealth en speelt zich voornamelijk outdoor af. Kortom: het zijn twee totaal verschillende games. En dat is maar goed ook. Ieder zijn smaak. En onthoud: Over smaak valt niet te twisten.

Medal of Honor is a first person shooter for all of those fans of Return to Castle Wolfenstein that were hoping for a realism lost in id's world of undead and demons, a game that relies instead on the real horrors of a war that cost thousands their lives and a world its innocence. Soaked in detailed graphics and nerve-wracking sound effects, this is a game for the hardcore gamer who wants to be a part of World War II for better or worse.

GameSpot
So, if you're looking for the next great online game or a deep tactical shooter, Medal of Honor isn't for you. For anyone else, it's hard to recommend it strenuously enough. At a time when shooters seem to be evolving into two distinct kinds of games--either focused on realistic tactics or on arcade action--Medal of Honor represents the absolute best that action-packed, event-driven shooters have to offer.

However, even though Medal of Honor: Allied Assault can be considered a classic, the overal impression is somewhat blemished by a rather bleak and abrupt ending. After a couple of days of playing, all you will get is a screen saying 'The End', followed by some credits, and then the main menu! After a game designed in such detail, who would think that creating a decent cinematic sequence would pose that much of a problem to the authors!? This disappointment can be made up for by playing the multiplayer mode, which frankly brings nothing new. It has a DM, Team DM, round-based and the somewhat more interesting team objective mods. Some of the better servers support up to 64 players per game, which promises a good multiplayer experience. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is definitely a game that will leave a mark on the gaming scene. It is marvelous what you can get by adding great atmosphere and a good AI to a barely interactive shooter.

Medal of Honor is boven alles een ren-en-shiet-shooter, maar dan wel de allerbeste ren-en-schiet-shooter van de laatste jaren. Slimme voorafgeschreven gebeurtenissen en prachtig georchestreerd oorlogsgeweld duwt het game vooruit met een intensiteit en spanning waaraan het vele tactische shooters soms ontbreekt.

Klares Highlight in
Medal of Honor sind die abwechslungsreichen
Missionen. Es wirkt ungeheuer echt, dass nicht
ständig nur geballert wird. Besonders einige der
ruhigeren, taktischeren Einsätze haben es mir
deshalb angetan, etwa die Verteidigung des französischen
Brückenkopfes.
Ein wenig zu langweilig sind mir allerdings die
Waffen. Egal, mit welcher MP ich antrete oder
ob ich zur Schrotflinte greife – fast immer räume
ich mit dem Scharfschützengewehr am
effektivsten auf. Außerdem hätte eine richtige
Story noch für ein Quäntchen mehr Motivation
gesorgt. Letztlich ist das für mich einer der wenigen
Punkte, in dem
Wolfenstein wirklich besser
ist. Auch der Multiplayer-Teil gefällt mir dort
besser, weil er mit seinem Klassensystem langfristig
mehr Möglichkeiten bietet. Aber sei es
drum: Sie mögen Actionspiele, in denen nicht
nur Dauerfeuer gefragt ist? Dann greifen Sie zu!

Hallo? Ich renne aus Fort Schmerzen raus, das Bild blendet weg und plötzlich steht da nur: ’The End’. Hey, da krieg ich echt Schmerzen! Was’n das für’n Schluss? Soll ich mir aus den Haaren, die ich mir wegen dieses schnöden Schriftzugs ausgerissen hab, selbst ’ne Endsequenz häkeln? Schade, denn der Rest stimmt - besonders die eindringliche Atmosphäre und die abwechslungsreichen Missionen. Ein bisschen verliebt habe ich mich in den Kompass, der meines Erachtens nach (Achtung, Wortspiel!) eine wegweisende Lösung für alle Ego-Shooter wäre: endlich perfekte Glückseligkeit für alle Orientierungsdeppen!

Der Kragen drückt ein wenig. Kein Wunder, ist ja auch nicht Ihre Uniform, die Sie da tragen. Jetzt bloß nichts anmerken lassen, sagen Sie sich, als Sie durch das stählerne Tor ins Innere der Festung schreiten. Mitten in die Höhle des Löwen. Lässig die Ausweispapiere gezückt. Die Wache salutiert, hält inne. "Diese Papiere sind nicht in Ordnung!" - Wie sehr hatten Sie gehofft, diesen Satz nicht zu hören. Zu spät trifft den Posten die Kugel aus Ihrer schallgedämpften Pistole, die Alarmsirenen heulen schon. "Na schön," seufzen Sie in Gedanken, als Sie Ihre Maschinenpistole durchladen und die ersten herbeieilenden Soldaten mit einem Feuerstoß begrüßen, "dann eben auf die harte Tour."

Medal Of Honor. A quel joueur assidu ce nom n’évoque t-il rien ? Un nom presque aussi connu dans le monde des jeux vidéo que des sagas telles qu’Age Of Empires, Battlefield ou encore Flight Simulator dans leurs domaines respectifs. Un nom à défendre donc, un nom à honorer. En 2000, il faisait fureur sur PlayStation ; aujourd’hui, c’est dans le monde du PC que les agents de l’Office of Strategic Service débarquent. Et ils ont bien l’intention de marquer le coup.

Maybe I was spoiled by spending the last two months glued to Ghost Recon, or maybe it was the exploitation of the Quake III engine. Whatever it was, MOH:AA just didn't feel right to me. The porting of a console-based game to the PC just didn't flow right.

En clair ce Medal Of Honor se veut un excellent shooter bénéficiant d'une action variée et rythmée qui donnera envie d'en venir à bout très vite, sans doute même trop vite. Les amateurs de jeu en multijoueur risquent en revanche de vite en épuiser les ressources alors que c'est finalement la campagne solo, certes trop courte, qui se veut pratiquement la plus captivante. Le gameplay se veut finalement assez original pour la catégorie et on signalera également un niveau d'I.A tout simplement hallucinant qui contribuera à une immersion totale dans cet univers.

Medal of Honor – Allied Assault or MOH-AA; where should I begin? When I first had a look at the game in the computer store, I thought “It looks ok but is it any better than any other first person shooter single player like Return to Castle Wolfenstein or Alien Vs Predator 2 ?” Well, it was a good buy for $35 (previously owned).
