I got this the day after came out, and all I can say so far is that it is awesome. The sound is about 10 times better than Frontline, and the graphics are pretty much the same, but there is a ton more dialogue in this one, unlike in Frontline, where only your commander talks to you, and there are dramatic parts in it to, which kind of makes it like a movie. The only bad thing about this is, the ending, which just left me hanging, and wanting to do the next mission. But overall...This is definetely worth your money!

I bought Medal Of Honor Frontline for Gamecube because I heard it was so good on the PS2 and that you must own a PS2 for this MOHF. Well lets just say big let down and nothing really was great in the game at all besides the amazing sound effects and special effects. Well I saw the reviews for Medal Of Honor Rising Sun and seeing how they weren't the ebst around 8 in all I held off buying this game. I went to my local Walmart the other day and saw it for $30 bucks so I just picked it up hearing some good reviews for the Gamecube version. Well I put it in expecting horrid controls and bad graphics, now lets reverse that. This game amazed me. Frame rate moves extremely solid with no drop in the rate or fuzzyness. The charecter models themselves are great and the special effects are the best I have ever seen in a game. Controls are what really surprised me because they are just as good as Timesplitter 2 or Goldeneye's controls. Truly Rising Sun has turned the whole series around for me and if you are one of those people like me before rent, buy or see this game in action and you will see what I mean.

Medal of Honour: Breaking new barriers!

I am a big fan of the medal of honour series owning all games avaliable. When I wen't to buy the latest i was advised to reconsider and save my money, it was like the rest i was told. After playing the game for 15 minutes I was hooked. The game doesn't have much better graphics the frontline, however the gameplay is FANTASTIC!
The concept of fighting a new kind of enemy is great, the japs in this game are hard ba***rds in which it takes alot of force to kill them. Their attacks are also more deadly as they use the infamous bonzai charges (they attack with bayonet mounted weapons with deadly effect).
The mission plan is better than the last as they are structured better. The weapons have the same authenticy and the multiplayer is out of this world. Unlike frontline you are alowed AI bots as well as multiple players. When you put the game into your console the action begins, Pearl harbour is your first mission, in which the realism is great. The concept of taking on multiple waves of jap planes on a sinking battleship sounds dull but it is so intense you feel like your'e there in the action. The missions which procced are just as captivating as the last and are even more challeging than the last games.
Some feel that playing agains the japs won't be quite the same as the war on the western front (i was one of them) but i reassure you that it is just as gripping as its earlier games. The game puts you into the shoes of Griffin who is stationed at pearl harbour and you follow him on mostly solo or small teamed missions all across the paciffic front in a bid to elimate the japanese threat.
The game lives up to its name and continues to be the best WW2 series around
fantastic game, a must buy!

stop listening to these bad reviews!!!

If you are thinking twice about buying Rising Sun because of these bad reviews, then you better stop listening to them or you're going to miss out on a great game! The reviews that this game is getting are pathetic! The gameplay is amazing and the action that the missions give make you feel like you were really a young soldier fighting [japanese] in WW2! By the way, the Pearl Harbor mission is awsome! Also, if you're looking for a great time with your friends as you kill (...) in extreme war sequences, this is the game to buy! The
co-op gameplay is fun and i can garauntee a great time. The plot of the game is cool like the one in Frontline but i really think that it would have been better if they would have showed the legendary bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But all in all this is one of the best buys you can make and i dont think i have ever played such a good war game. I congratulate the folks at EA Games and i hope that they keep up the good work!

Underrated first person shooter

This is truly a great game for any system. It features awesome cooperative play, mind-boggling multiplayer, and reasonable graphics. The controls are simple to use, The plot takes place in World War II (You also get to fight the battle of Pearl Harbor on the FIRST LEVEL!!!), and there's a variety of devastating weapons to choose from. All in all, if you love first person shooters and don't own this one, you need to rack up a quick $30.00 and buy it now. I was very happy that I bought this game, and my little brother and I beat it in co-op mode because we couldn't get enough of its great action. So I recommend you buy this game, before someone else finds its amazing value.

This is overall a very good game. My cousin and i played this
game from 9:00 pm to 5:30 am. Yeah, its that addictive. The only thing i didnt like was the ending. It left us hanging to do another mission but the game just stoped. I cant wait until the next medal of honor comes out so i can finish the mission.

Great game!!

How the Heck did such a good game come out that is a first person shooter for the GC. The multiplayer is great with the addition of new AI for you to battle with but I think there should be a capture the flag mode. The graphics are great and the old freaky MOA frontline music is also back. The story is really great and you want to keep going to get to the next cut seen. It is fun to now use the new wepons including jap weapons and my favorite the one shot kill welrod. If you love nightfire, the other MOA games or Battlefield 1942 you will love the months of entertainment this game brings!

If you thought MOH Frontline was fun....

I have to say this is currently EA games best Medal of Honor game yet. Rising sun puts you in the feet of a marnie as you take out all those dang japenese. First of all, the beggining level Day of infamy was really fun. It got you excited to keep playing. The graphics are extreamly good compared to previous MOH games. Next would be the THX sound. It was very stunning and gave the game almost a movie like feeling. It's rather amazing. I have only recently beat the game. I cannot wait for the next MOH where you get to rescue your brother. The only problem I found with this game is the multiplayer mode. But after awhile you get used to it. But the 2 player co-op mode is really fun! All in all, I highly recemmend this game to fans of 1rs person shooters or the MOH series.

buy medal of honor rising sun if you know what is good for u

this game is awesome. calumpit chaos and death in the orient are the best multiplayer levels. multiplayer can be addicting. this is the only game i play. its that good. way better than frontline's multiplayer but frontline has a better story mode. if you have any common sense you'll buy this game. do not play other games because they are not even close to as good as this game. i hate bromely. he's a dum___ if ya know what i mean. i am the master of this game. some levls can be to dark such as idol assualt so to solve that problem change your tv setting to 90 percent brightness and 0 percent color. oh and watch out for hygene and morayi, even though thay are 3 star they can be as tricky as nixon.

Great Game

So, to start out, I bought this game to add to my gamecube collection about 4 to 5 months ago, and have been enjoying it ever since. On vacation I wake up early to play it, and play it all day. The game is action packed, and alot of fun to play. The campaign was a little too easy, beat it in about 4 days. However, the multiplayer mode never ceases to please me. I have 2 other brothers, so we play on split screen alot. I love all the maps we have to play on, and the AI, when cranked up all the way, is TOUGH. Lots of fun, lots of enjoyment, low price. GET IT AND COMPLETE YOUR MOH COLLECTION!!
