How is it?
Reviews have been pretty solid from mostly all websites i've seen along with the MP Beta reviews.
Wondering how it is before I buy it. |

Ended up buying it, now I want to return it. Eh, I guess these modern games just aren't for me. I'm not too fond it really being immersed in a video game, I feel as if life does that enough already :p . The realism is the only thing I hate about modern games, miss the overall fun, run and gun arcade factor games had pre-2003 era. I think after Call of Duty and Half-Life 2 were released the industry went into a frenzy. I may be wrong, I'm not saying I'm right. I just have a very picky attitude towards games.
I think the single player in this game is too RPG-ish in my opinion which kind of drags on and running and holding W for 10 minutes to turn in a mission really isn't my thing :p .
Multi-play is pretty annoying, the glitches are still pretty relevant, the way the animations are is terrible and how the enemy jolts forward in such a quick motion annoys me. Another thing, maps are somewhat too complicated, too much unnecessary in places that no one will ever fight, to a point where it gets hard to coordinate around. (and yes I do understand the game just got released)
Eh, hopefully my hopes for Medal of Honor:Airborne won't let me down and it'll be somewhat like the most loved game of my life: MOH:Allied Assault :p |

| The concept is nice. Too bad the graphics are a joke. :( |

gaming is not about graphics. I don't think it looks bad myself |

It's not that graphics are my main priority, it's just that a game from 2007 ( even though it's delayed ) that uses so much resources better look good. |

| agreed, i think the game looks pretty poor, but i love mostly everything else about it. certainly a nice change in the FPS genre. really impressed with the AI (well, most of the time!) and the feeling that youre in a dynamic, living world is hard to shake. hats off to the developers for doing something different. |

LOL. Are you joking me?
The graphics are ing BRILLANT. I run max settings on my 8800 GTS here and it ing looks amazing and causes my vid card to stress.
If anything the game feels unstable/buggy but the graphics are ing very nice.
The game is pretty sick too, I like it. It's got a little twist from the usual FPS which is nice. I haven't played it very much but from what I have it's pretty cool. |
