A More Realistic Doom.

After extensively spending some time with the E3 build, I have to admit that I am quite impressed. The graphical system is pretty good, especially for a handhled system. I really have a lot of respect for a near-perfect port of the Playstation original. A nice variety of WWII weapons are present, and they are fairly easy to aim and use. There are also quite a few levels that are really large in size, which is very surprising for the Game Boy Advance. Also, the game is better than Doom, as it is more realistic and the enemies are much easier to see. Unfortanutley, it is just too damn dark. The Game Boy Advance is not backlit, and this just reminds of that. It is also a port of the Playstation game. Medal of Honor: Underground lacks the polish of the original and the new additions found in the Playstation 2 game, Medal of Honor Frontline. Environments are bland, and enimies can sometimes be too tough. There is never enough ammunition, either. However, this game is eaisly the best first-person shooter to grace the Game Boy Advance. It is more realistic than Doom, longer than Ecks Versus Server, and is much easier to navigate than the bloody tradedgy that was Wolfstein 3D. This game is good stuff, and I strongly recommend it to anyone who feels like murduring some of those damn, virtual, Nazis. Damn fine. Damn, Damned, fine.

Pretty good,not the best it can be though..

I have found this game to be a fast and excellent war game to play , it teaches you about what the war was all about and it has some great graphics. However, there are some gliches, such as the ability to turn around with enimies are attacing you or to have an accurate shot using the sniper rifle.

I love how people that havnt even played this game rate it 5 stars. The only reason i gave it one star is because that's the lowest you can select. This game was so horrible, the graphics were the worst i've ever seen on GBA, I am not cheap but I actually took this game back to the store where I bought it and demanded a refund. The missions in the game, a joke, you pretty much walk right into them. And walking around is even a joke, i've never seen such choppy framerate in a game in my life!! Also when you shoot your weapon it's so slow i'm surprised your not dead by the time you get your second shot off. My advice, dont waste your time or money on this game. I would compare this game to Duke Nukem Advance as Duke being a 10 outta 10 and Medal of Honor being a 1 out of Million!!!

Disappointing

While the GBA has had a steady flow of great first person shooters (Doom 2 and Duke Nukem Advance to name a few), this anxiously awaited conversion of Medal of Honor: Underground is a huge disappointment considering all of the hype put into it. First off you will immediately notice the insanely grainy and choppy graphics. All of the environments and textures appear very blocky and blend in with one another more often than they should. Also, the frame rate is very sluggish, and if you have enemies behind you you won't be able to get a shot off at them until they get a few shots in themselves. While all that is the game's only true flaw, Medal of Honor: Underground still has a lot going for it: throughout the various missions you'll have to escort resistance members or steal military secrets from the enemy which is a nice change of pace from the usual mindless killing that has been abundant in first person shooters from the days of Wolfenstein 3-D. The game's soundtrack is great and is nearly identical to that of the original Medal of Honor game for the PS1, and the control is nice and tight for the most part, but thanks to the godawful graphics presentation, this game is a huge disappointment. All in all, those who have anxiously awaited this game will not be happy with it, and while Medal of Honor: Underground isn't a bad game at all, it is simply not worth purchasing.

i am an experienced veterian with first person shooters and I have to admit that this is the worst on I have ever played. To me the worst part is the insane auto aim that takes away all chance to show any talent with shooting. The frame rate is very slow and the background is very bland. There is no real easy visible difference between nazis and a wall. And there is allways too much ammo, I tried as hard as i could and I wasn't able to get rid of it.

Not bad for the portable

With a 32-bit processor and up to 250MB of storage space there is only so much Destination software could do with this game. For what they did do, they did a good job of.
This game is not as sophisticated as the versions for the Playstation and this is one of the reasons why many people seem disappointed with this game. Eventually game companies may be able to fit a DVD's worth of data on a small GBA chip, but not today. This game has impressive graphics for a portable and very realistic sounds. It does not play well in not perfect lightening conditions, and I would not recommend you use a Game Boy external light.

Medal of Honor: Underground...

I'll have to agree with John Wolf, honestly. For what Destination had to work with, I think they did an admirable job with MOHU. Admittedly, for it being a Playstion game originally, MOHU was an ambitious undertaking yet Destination did fine with it...and, in my opinion, is definitely a worthy FPS worth owning for the Gameboy Advance. Sure, it may not be as polished and innovative as some other FPS for the system but it holds its' own and, for that, they should be commended. I'll admit, I'm a diehard-hardcore Medal of Honor fan myself. It wasn't exactly what I thought it would be, either. That's, probably, why so many are disappointed with the game. But, Reviewer John Wolf is right with what he said in his review. Medal of Honor:Underground isn't that bad of a game. It should be given a chance.

Very sad indeed...........

Save your money. After playing Medal of Honor Frontline, this game is like a trip to the distant past. The graphics are like the drawings of a kindergarden child, and the ability to control the game is frustrating. I guess I was expecting the same super look of Frontline, and boy what a pathetic difference. I guess if you haven't reached the level of Frontline, it might be good as a intro, but I tried it, and tried it, and threw it in the trash. A learning experience....

The best game in the series

This is my favourite PsOne game of all time. I'm proud to say I'm almost finished with it.

The graphics are sharper and more detailed.

The missons are challenging and fun.

Don't miss this game! it's well worth it.
