I had high expectations for this game. I played the single player demo and the multiplayer demo - both worked fine on my nearly brand new system (P4-3Ghz - 1GB Ram, Radeon 9600XT 256MB, XP SP2). However, I installed my purchased copy, only to encounter some Firewall VBscript error at the end of installation, and then when attempting to play the game, it cannot find the installation CD1 disk. I attempted to install the game on my second PC and encountered the same error. So, I returned my copy to Amazon and requested an exchange for another copy since I suspected maybe the disk was damaged. I received my 2nd copy only 2 days later (great return process Amazon!), reinstalled the game, and again had the same error. I have a Lite-On LDW-851S DVD/CD-RW combo drive and updated the firmware per information I found on the EA site, but that didn't resolve anything. I haven't had any other compatibility problems with other games (ex UT2004) and this drive, or with the drive itself so it must be something with the game. I guess I'll have to go back to Call Of Duty for my WWII genre action gaming.

Good Game

I played this game on a P4 2.0 & Nvidia GeForce FX 5700 with no problem. When you buy a game look on the box for system requirements. If your graphics card can't play it then buy a new one. If you have Windows ME or 98 then buy 2000 or XP. Quit your whining or stick with the cheapo games cause in a year or 2 you will have to replace your card anyways, if you want to continue playing PC games.

The game is fun and not that hard. If you rush in and attack you'll get blasted, but if you use tactic it's no problem. I made it through Guadacanal with 3 health remaining on realistic mode. The graphics are fresh and the story line is an actual story line. It's nice to see more character personality than; "Go blow up a bridge and ammo dump, then shoot more Nazis."
The loading times aren't that bad as well. The longest it took me was 30 seconds.

The bad side is a bug for the directors cut. It doesn't allow you to get all the medals for Guadalcanal even if you get all bonus objectives, so hopefully a patch will be out soon for it.

Overall it's fun to play. It has many qualities over CoD such as bonus material and longer play (CoD was too short) and so on while CoD excels on graphics and such. I'm a fan of both series. Why sit and wait a year for an expansion playing the same game everyday when I can buy some other war games and satisfy myself until more do come out. Don't fall into the hype and choose one over the other. They're both good.

SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY

As many of the other reviews here state this game is total garbage. The load times are ridiculous and the AI is pathetic. Your squad mates get in your way or sit their while the Japanese run by them and shoot you. In many places you are confined to this narrow path or river and can not deviate even a few feet off it to take cover behind a rock or tree. Almost all of the enemy soldiers require multiple shots to kill them and a head shot generally just knocks their helmet off. Frequent saves are required, since progress is very slow due to the terrible AI and pathetic playability.

This is the first game that I can remember buying and actually not finishing since it is such a piece of crap and not worth the time.

I really enjoyed the other games in the Medal of Honor line, but this game is so frustrating it's not even fun. EA should have spent more time on the actual game rather than the cute screen movies and cut-shots.

For the money EA wants for this garbage you could buy a real game like Half-life 2 and actually enjoy playing it.

Average game experience

I was expecting more from MOH this time around - they did add a few new features that I like (i.e. the concept of a medic to heal you instead of hunting around for health packs) but the graphics and environement has fallen way, way behind it's far superior counterparts such as Call of Duty. There were numerous bugs and the limited interaction with the surroundings (you're forced down very narrow paths) made the game frustrating and frankly rather boring. I wouldn't purchase it again and I think this will be the last MOH I pony up for.

Fun, but !

I had two problems with this game. The first is the time it takes to load. The second is the fighter aircraft. Since when does a ground pounding Marine Corp grunt fly a fighter aircraft?
I think this sequence should have been left out of the game. The game was great until I got to this part. Very hard to control the plane with keyboard and mouse. Other than these two things, I enjoyed the game.

VERY DISAPPONTING

I, like so many others who have learned to love the MOH series, could not be much less impressed with this new title. The gameplay is horrendous, the graphics are choppy & lacking detail, the expanded dialogue is a waste of mine (& yours too if you choose to play this game). I said that I would remain dedicated to this series, but have since followed all the others & have switched over to the Call of Duty series. I still prefer the gameplay & storyline of the first three MOH games, but it would now take a lot to convince me to return to future releases of the MOH series. Unfortunately, I expect that I am stuck with the Pacific Assault game, since no one should still wish to spend any amount of money after reading 99% of the reviews printed on this & other sites. Sorry MOH fans. They've ruined it for me!

The first look at Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault (I Am in the designing buisness =P ) It looked AWESOME!!! Its great lighting, nice sounds good graphic left me speechless. I would reccomend this game to anybody who likes a good shooter game.

Another thing that makes this game good is that it is more than just a shooter game with a good amount of levels (35) is that the new AI is really smart.

I CAN NOT WAIT TO GET MY HANDS ON THIS GAME! :)

THE MULTIPLAYER
With class based gameplay, all-new Invader gametype, integrated PunkBuster Technology, and eight original gameplay scenarios, multiplayer is the best i've ever seen it in an MOH game.

Underrated

Many people have copmlained that the loading times for this game is horrible. For me the loading times are not so bad an my computer is not that powerful (2.4 Ghz AMD Athlon 64 3400+ Processor with 1 GB Ram, and an ATI Radeon 9200 with 128 MB).

Enough with the loading times. This game is fun, and that's what's important. Some people might not like this game because you can't simply run towards your enemy guns blazing. If you were expecting Medal of Honor Allied Assault 2, you will be dissapointed. This game actually feels more like Call of Duty than it does MOHAA.

Anyway, if you want a decent WW2 FPS go for MOHPA, because if you have a good enough computer it will be fun.
