Enjoy

 

Very cool, thanks for posting that.

 

Thanks.. nice to know about the history of call of duty...quite sad that some ppl critise modern warfare 2 considering how awesome and different it is gonna be..

 

Now its time for Medal of Honor to take over Call of Duty.

 

Exactly, where the heck has Medal of Honor been? Any news on the next MOH?

 

Allied Assault, ah the memories. I was so naive in those days i didnt even know riddling a corpse with bullets should produce a shower of blood.

 

I don't see any info on new MOH. Maybe they wanna strike IW real hard. They are waiting for the metal to get red hot and then...smashhhhhhhh by a hammer.

 

LOL... oh man:

Just posted on Kotaku, that was quick.

 

Thats a coincidence that what we are discussing here came on Kotaku.

 

Medal of Honor: Airborne kinda flopped. If EA wants the series to have a chance against Call of Duty, they'd better really think hard about their next move with the series.

 

+1 Seriously they should come up with a plan or something...or else cod's gonna kick 'em outta space!!

 

I think most want to play modern wars rather than world war or 2142 wars..
MOH AA was my best fps game... I really liked it and played a lot.

 

This article brings back memories of the first COD.

 

I'll be honest, I like MoH: Airborne's single player more than CoD3 and CoD4. I really like the methodical tactical take on combat. Tighten up the controls and the on screen weapon placement, and I'd probably like it more than CoD1 and CoD2 as well. It's just a really interesting game, gameplay wise. I found it utterly intriguing and engaging.

 

I like the bomb explosion in Airborne. It was totally different.

 

What I hated about MoH:airborne was how grossly overpowering the Springfield was in Singleplayer. After it was upgraded, I was tearing through Stormtroopers like a weed whacker.

It turned you into Superman....

I think the Shoot and Scoot of CoD is more accurate.

 

This is EA we're talking about, the great milker of franchises (Madden *cough*) but there's hope. My exposure to the WWII FPS started with Medal of Honor so I'd like to see something big sometime soon.

 

Another series i want to see come back strong is Brothers in Arms. That was an EXCELLENT series. Probably the most tactical FPS ever.

 

+2. I sadly have not played any of them yet IMO they were amazing for the story and tactical gameplay.

 

You should pick it up man. You can get a good deal on it and it really immerses you in the experience especially when your people start dying left and right.

 

To be fair I expected this thread to end with a paragraph on mW2 full of lies. Happy it wasn't what I expected.

As for EA being the milker. With the next Call of Duty slated for 2010, I really think Activision deserves the title.

 

Play MoHA on hard, and cover becomes alot more important

 

Ya, the springfield became even more overpowering in expert.

On normal, I just used the MP4 all day.

I couldn't ever get the darn parachute medals though.


IW has a success rate similar to Blizzard now. I'd at least give them the benefit of doubt.
