The Deluxe Edition provides a good package for the MOH fan, at a reasonable price. Spearhead is a welcome expansion for those of us in the UK, as you parachute in to France and link up with some Parachute Regiment boys, including their weapons - the Lee Enfield and the Sten gun in total there are 36 different weapons. It also supports multiplayer, both online and as a network. Spearhead is a little more challenging, but if you want longevity, turn up the difficulty from the outset. We finished Allied Assault in a few days of gaming. Overall, on easy level, however, the game is easy. Having said that, you now get the option to save in game, which can be great if you keep dying at the same point. The loading scenes can be a little slow, something that one expects on a console, but not on the PC. The cutscenes are almost entirely taken from old war video footage, which lends to the atmosphere. The sound is very good, and the music fits in well. However, you do get a little more freedom to roam around the place. That has carried over to the PC version to a certain extent, with embankments that you can't climb, and a large proportion of doors that remain locked. One of the greatest criticisms of the original game was that it was so linear - ie, you could only really go along paths, so it was difficult to get lost. There is a tutorial in the guise of a training level that will tell you ever thing you need to know, and get you started. It is also worth playing around with the video settings to get a smooth game. At least using the mouse is easier than the analogue stick on the console. You play Lt Mike Powell, a Ranger, on various missions in and around Europe, playing your small part in inconveniencing the Axis forces, winning as many medals as possible along the way.Ĭontrol of Lt Powell needs some mastering to get the best from him, as it uses a range of keys. From the outset, you know that Saving Private Ryan had a profound effect on the the MOH games, and you get the Normandy beach landing replicated here as one of the levels.
We got our combat scarred hands on the Deluxe edition, including Allied Assault and Spearhead, the expansion pack. (Pocket-lint) - Medal of Honor was undoubtedly one of the best first person shooter games on the PlayStation, and I was dubious about how I'd take to the PC version - Medal of Honor Allied Assault.
