While this is a good game it dosen't compare to the PC one, MOHAA. Go buy MOHAA and don't waste your money on this one.

a good game but unnerving to be actually in ww2

This is an extremely fun game. The weapons are awesone, the levels are interesting and the graphics are good, but this game gets 3 stars because if you think that the people in this game are recreating one of the most horrific wars. Fun if you dont mind the guilt of shooting Nazis that actually are in the spot of Real LIVE people. Think before buying. This game is not for everyone but it is a fun game.Dont forget to vote on how helpful the review was! hope this helped(Im planning on selling mine)Thanks. Peace out.

World War II PG-Style

Medal of Honor: Frontline begins with the powerful words of Dwight D. Eisenhower's famous Order of the Day for June 6th, 1944, in which he both encouraged and warned the Allied Expeditionary Force of the dangers that lay ahead. It also has actual WWII footage, which I watch over and over again.
When you hit "New Game" you are immediatley thrown onto Omaha Beach and survive a hit by a German 88 shell that lands in your LCVP. I'm assuming you're with the 2nd or 5th Rangers on the D-Day level, because instead of crouching behind the seawall, confused and leaderless like the 116th was that day, you go clearing up an exit like the real Rangers did. After D-Day, you are reassigned to the Office of Strategic Services and become an operative sent to sabotage a U-boat installation. Throughout the rest of the game, you are thrown in the middle real WWII events, like Operation Market Garden, where you cross the Nijmegen Bridge before the 82nd Airborne, and help out the British Airborne at Arnhem in Holland. You also have to foil Nazi plans for a flying wing jet fighter, which in real life never made it to active duty.
It seemed like the purpose of this game was more to show you World War II in a PG-rated style, which I enjoyed, except for the PG part. No blood, no gore (not that it's good when it's falling out of people). Just flashes and guys falling over and fading away. I guess that's one thing that bugged me. WWII was such a horrible war because it was an incredibly messy war. The bodies and blood didn't just fade away at Omaha, Utah, Sword, Juno, or Gold beaches. They didn't fade away in the Normandy hedgerows. Nor at Arnhem, Iwo Jima, or Okinawa. I guess this game wasn't violent enough, not that violence is good, but if you're trying to recreate World War II, you can make it a wee bit messier.
I love the graphics in this game. While they do sometimes screw up, they are still wonderful. You may notice that this game looks familiar because it looks like many World War II movies, especially Saving Private Ryan (the beach on the D-Day level and the town in the mission "Seaside Stowaway") and A Bridge Too Far (the Operation Market Garden level titled "Several Bridges Too Far"). Both movies accurately recreated the battles they portrayed (a Bridge Too Far was shot on actual battlefield locations), and so did this game (except for the lack of "mess").

I also liked the fact that you could use real WWII weapons like the B.A.R., Walther P38, Panzerfaust. Of course, who would be stupid enough to make a WWII-era game without WWII era-weapons?
One of the problems was this game was unreasonably easy (even on Hard), especially since you have a health meter. One man couldn't take on the entire German army. But then, that just convinces me further that this game was to show you WWII PG-style.
Another big problem I had with this game was that it portrayed all the German soldiers as fierce, evil Nazis. In real life, many of the German soldiers weren't German. Many were in Ost battalions (POWs captured by the Germans on the Eastern Front), forced to fight against their will (German NCOs often had them at gunpoint) and scared to death.

Overall, this is a pretty good WWII game, realistic in a PG way. Can't wait until the next one comes out.

I bought MOH:RS before this and was pleased with MOH:RS, then I found out there was Frontline.

One day as I walked by Game in Buchanan Street on the way to the office, and like a beam of hallowed light I noticed a 2nd hand copy for £7.99, took it home and played it literally to the death.

It has great parts of realism like landing on the beach and running through the Dutch countryside like John Wayne on a mission, the hakenkreuz's are all present and correct and the uniforms are spot on, specially the snipers on the bridge with the mask. There is also Salvador Dali realism (surrealism) as mentioned by another reviewer tackling a building of Wehrmacht with only a silencer is not the done thing or taking out a Panzer with an MG42 or the last mission, but you'll see what I mean when you get there.

My favourite is the Nijmegen to Arnhem mission, it is just something else, great musical score and very realistic.

I may be the only person who is better with a Springfield sniper rifle than a Thompson...also took me a while to figure out how to save the guy who lands on the Windmill...

Great game and I am still playing nearly 2 years on from owning it.

Classic Medal of Honor

This is my favorite of the best WWII shooter game series, Medal of Honor. My main attraction to it is the long extensive campaign with an unintrusive story line. It also has a wide range of weapons in comparison to others in the series, although you usually find them in armorys instead of off dead bodys. The graphics are good considering it's on Gamecube, although the people are a little blocky. The D-Day mission is a little unrealistic, you storm the beach with maybe ten men. The rest of the campaign is great, aiming is odd after playing newer games where you look down the barrel. The story revolves around an OSS agent, however only a few missions are covert or infiltrational. The levels have you fight with the 101st and 82nd in Normandy, and over the Nijmegan bridge and through Arnhem in Market-Garden among many other places. In short, Frontline is a great game, in a great series.

Great Game

I rented this game, and now i seriously want to buy it. This is a great game, grahpics are very detailed.Best graphics i have seen on any of my games. The mutiplayer is well designed, and so are the 1 player missions.This game has a good plot, and i cant really find many flaws, it would be hard for MOH Rising Sun to top this, except maybe for even better graphics.
