I am a big player of MOHAA and I am glad that they have taken the game and added an expansion. After all, who doesn't want to have more guns, levels, and baddies to enjoy?
The only problem is that it is still just MOHAA with new additives. I'm not saying the game is to be quaffed at for this, but I am saying that it should only be looked at for what it is...Medal of Honor with a few extras.
No new engine tweaks, no blood, no new multiplayer options; this is why the pack doesn't deserve more than three stars. However, if you liked MOHAA than give it an extra star and a half. If EA were to release the full editing tools with this pack, they would get five stars, but they won't so they don't.
Keep up the fragging and roll those nades, that is all that you need to enjoy this game!

MOHAA - great fun, but small flaws

Medal of Honour : Allied Assault is undoubtedly a great game. Fast-paced and unnervingly realistic, I have only two complaints; how does Powell manage to carry around 200 kgs of stuff, and why is there no strategy-based attack (eg your buddies cover you and vice-versa)?
Despite these problems, medal of honour is most definitely worth buying.

A kick (...) game with Kick (...) affects.

I only played one level in the game allied assault and it was so cool, and I beat the game in frontline.now with the Battle of the bulge in here and the 101st Airborne in, it will be a award winning action pack game.It is kind of like the HBO hit BAND OF BROTHERS.But any way keep up the good work and i assure you this is just a satisfied consumer who made a wise investmeant in buying this game.

Thank you:Daniel

I was reading about some of the recent reviews a read about one with blood and new features....... Well, i just thought i'd break it to you guys that if you want blood and new effect or stuff like that, why dont you just download mods? You guys want blood, maps or new explosions and skins? Go download some mods, and im sure that if you had those mods you'd give this game 5 stars!

I played Multiplayer Expansion Demo...

I've played the expansion multiplayer demo and from what I've seen they have really changed allot of the game.

|||You run about 50% faaster.
|||Damage is much more realistic. 2 hits from the SMG instead of like 5.
|||Huge Maps, but playable with only a few people, very well designded!
|||Bash With SMG!
|||New Weapons and player skins from British and Russian.
|||In game voting is much more usable and more voting options.

Over all quite a few changes, Looking forward to the full version.

The game is fabulous, but where's the originality? It's basically just some new weapons, levels, and other things. The full version has some bugs which are sometimes intolerable, and they removed half of all the skins in MP mode!

I would suggest buying the next MOH game in 2003. I'm sure that will be a great enhancement.

best game ever

I am a big fan of Mohaa and this game gets a 5 stars because of how real the guns look and how the gun fire sounds so close to the real one. I have never seen a game that copyed the real look of a gun. The combat is even better if you like to play online alot like me then you get to play new maps and work with a bunch of other people to win. This game is one of the best single and online game i have ever seen and I love how you get more guns to use and how you get to pick from being USA to UK etc... SO is this game worth buying?? YES just buy the game and youll see what im talking about

Great improvements nearly negated by big flaws.

I've always loved the Medal of Honor series, and Allied Assault is one of my favourite games of the past year. Spearhead has made some good improvements on Allied Assault, but those improvements are offset by some highly substantial flaws.

First of all, the price. Whether three new missions and a handful of new weapons are worth the price is up to you. I can say that it's amusing being able to commandeer a Nebelwerfer (the kind you only got to blow up in Allied Assault), and the new revolvers are fun to use, but only three new missions for a purchase price comparable to the original game?

Secondly, the system mechanics. Depending on what version of Allied Assault you have, the installation of Spearhead may cause all your old saved games to become unreadable.

Finally, gameplay. There are plusses and minuses. The graphics took a big leap forward, but with that comes a price -- controls are harder because of all the eye candy. When enemies get close, they often become flurries because of the graphical details. A great improvement is the ability to use physical attacks (the "pistol whip") with weapons other than pistols. Finally, after three games, they give you this very simple, very useful option. My biggest complaint is in some of the level designs. Not only did Electronic Arts not learn from the negative feedback given to Allied Assault's "sniper" level (also known as the "fighting 100 enemies you can't see" level), but they make it even worse with two of the levels in this game. If you fancy fighting enemies who hit you from all over but whom you can't even see, this is the game for you. Not all levels are like that, but for me, it's a major slip-up in game testing that I have to actually fire blindly into the distance without being able to see my enemies.

My biggest complaint is still the price. Frankly, if I'd known there were so few new levels, I wouldn't have bought this game at all. Perhaps the new multiplayer features make it worthwhile? I don't play multiplayer so I don't know. But the package is definitely overpriced. Whereas expansion packs like those for The Sims (Livin' Large being especially impressive) and Armored Core make their original games twice as broad, Spearhead falls far below my expectations.

You've got to be kidding me!

Don't get me wrong, this game is immensely fun to play (I think it was better than the original)...all four hours that it took to complete. Come one, you've got to be kidding me! I want my 30 dollars back. I really feel ripped off. 4 hours? It's like a CD single, one good song and that's it. Ridiculous. Don't buy it or you're going to be p...sed off too.
