Someone (EA) finally got FPS on PSP right!!!

I must say I am very impressed!! I am a FPS fanatic so when I tell you this game is done right I mean it. Best FPS on the PSP to date hands down. Granted there have not been two many FPS on the system to date anyway, so in comparison it is the best by leaps and bounds. EA has done this one right!!! Let get in to it...

Graphics - 4.5 out of 5 - Some of the best graphics I have seen on the PSP to date. Nuff said...there are patches that get a little rough around the edges but hey it is a PSP.

Sound - 5 out of 5 - Ever played Medal of Honor on Console or PC versions well the sounds compare greatly to its console counterparts. Outstanding sounds and voice acting.

Controls - 5 out of 5 - They said a good FPS could not be done right with the use of only one analog stick on the PSP but guess what EA prove them (Critics) wrong. This game controls beautifully you of course have to use the X,O,square and triangle buttons to look up, own, left, and right but it is done beautifully. It also helps that the action doesn't come at you in a pace where you can't turn quick enough. But if you feel the need just do a double tap for a quick turn.

Game play - 5 out of 5 - if you have ever played Medal of honor on console then you will be please that the same game play elements that made it such a success are still here and work great for on the go playing.

Story - 4 out of 5 - its Medal of Honor...Nuff Said!!

I will say that I am a big 1st person shooter fan anyway so this game was right up my alley and by no means a let down. I was truly skeptical at first considering past PSP FPS, but I honestly can not imagine anyone NOT liking this game once they started playing (Esp. if you like a good FPS).

Bottom Line: We are in the Holiday season and it is really starting to show, some of the best games we'll see this year are being released now and in the next couple of weeks to come and Medal of Honor will be ranked among them easily.

It's War--On the Go! Amazing! Spectacular! Worth the Hype!!

This game has been on my "Must buy" list for about three months now. And picking it up today was a sigh of relief, almost.

When you first turn on the game, you are struck by the music and the main menu. Once again, EA NAILED IT! Great MUSIC, and the Menu is easily navigatible.

I thought it'd be best to learn the control scheme in Skirmish mode rather than try my luck at playing online... ...once again, WOW! It was as if I had picked up a PS2 controller. The guys at EA got this right! There are a lot of small "shortcut" buttons that allow for all the functions that the PS2 Medal of Honor Games have. For example, double tapping the right D-pad button will automatically switch to grenades from your weapon--very handy in a heated online game!

As far as the Multiplayer, which is why 99% of people are buying this game, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! I was shocked to see that there was already 32 people online, and I jumped into a game with no hassle. One thing I love about the game is the ability to pick up weapons! This is very handy when you are regularly a sniper, but at the moment, the Bazooka that the guy you just killed was carrying looks very appetizing.

Another GREAT feature that adds a lot of strategy to the game is the Sprint function. By normal ways your soldier will walk, and if you NEED to run, you tap, and then hold the up analog stick. By doing this your character will sprint, BUT he will also lose his energy (which is represented by a meter in the lower left corner). Once he regains his energy you may sprint again. This is very much like real life, and is a healthy alternative to those other games that let you sprint continuously around maps with irregard to the fact that humans, and especially weapon-carrying soldiers DO get tired, and slow down.

Really, I can't say anything bad about the game AT ALL. My only advice would be to turn the sensitivity of the analog stick and directional buttons up ALL the way, because they were a bit sluggish when just starting.

The maps in this game, were something I didn't cover to well, but they absolutely ROCK! My favorite so far is the bridge map! I sniped 4 Nazi-Scums on that map in about 2 minutes.

Got to go kill some Nazis!!!!

Best Game for PSP, No Kidding!!

I just got this game today and it is the best game I've ever played for this system. While the PSP versions of "Godfather" and "Scarface" were huge letdowns compared to other consoles, this Medal of Honor is even better than the originals! Gameplay, controls and graphics are amazing, and very realistic too...you can even kick away grenades thrown at you! There is a great variety of weapons and uniforms to choose from in skirmish and multiplayer modes, adding to the pros of this game. (There are no cons!)Buy this game if you like shooters, and if you don't have any money, ask for it for Christmas!

Impressive

Wow, at first when I heard of this game I was thinking no big deal, its probably going to be like Coded Arms and have really bad controls and everything. Man was I wrong! I first downloaded a demo of this game off the internet and played it. First thing I noticed were the beautiful graphics, much better then Socom or any other game. After playing the demo I was thinking, wow, this game rules. I shortly after words bought a copy for only $20. Thats pretty cheap. Campaign is very fun. You get 15 missions on 3 different difficulties,green, veteran, or hero. Green is very easy and I would only recamend playing it for the first few missions. Then I would go back and switch to veteran. Its a lot more fun because there are more unlockables, like new uniforms, that Green mode doesn't have. Campaign objectives do repeat after a while but they start to change as the campaign nears its end. Your allies have ups and downs. For starters, you run through them so no annoying allies getting stuck in doorways and ruining the entire mission. You can also shoot through them too, so accidental friendly fire can't happen. The downs are that they never played catch with their fathers, meaning THEY CAN NOT THROW GRENADES
AT ALL. Every grenade they lug at the enemy SOMEHOW ends up right next to you. Luckily, you can kick the grenades away.

Skirmish mode is basically you versus the computer. Up to 16 computer players and you battle it out in one big deathmatch. You can choose the uniform you want to play in, the gun you spawn with, the map, and how long you want to play(5-30 minutes).The demo of Medal of Honor(MOH)IS skirmish mode. In the demo you play with 8 computer players. Imagine 16! The only bad thing about it is that you can't decided how long you want your respawn time to be. By default, its about 10 seconds.

Unlockables are cool. You can unlock new uniforms in the campaign mode to play as in skirmish mode and online mode. You also unlock medals by doing certain things like killing 25 enemies or something.

I've played very little with online. You sign into online with your EA account. Its free and you can make one on your psp. 32 people online is a little laggy and it's definitely different then campaign mode. I won't say if online is bad or not because I haven't played enough of it yet.

A lot of people have been saying that Socom is better than this game. Its not, trust me. In Socom there is no skill. There is target locking in Socom, meaning all you do is go around with a button held and lock onto the enemy and blow them away. Its not fun at all and it is the most repetitive game ever made. Load times for Socom are awful too. MOH's load times happen very quickly and occur only when you start a mission and load the game(which doesn't take long). Socom's load times? Just plain awful. You have to load the main menu, the mission menu, and then finally, the mission. Then you die and you have to do all over again.

So over all, I would try the demo of medal of honor first. Just find it on google. This game is very fun and well worth your money.

Absolutely The Best First Person Shooter YET

Im usually hard on games for the psp but this one renewed my faith. I loved this game out of the box, it feels amazingly like the other medal of honor games but smaller

If you haven't placed your order yet do it now its well worth it

my opinion.

This game is great, online there can be 32 players in a game witch is a new psp record. The controls work perfect on the psp. The one player part of the game is good but to short, you can beat it in about 2 hours. And if your goal is to get in the top 100 score board on EA online, its quite easy. I got to rank 88 in about 4 days I think.

pro. 32 player games online.
pro. controls work well.
pro. 68 unlockables. (or so)

con. to short story.
con. it takes to meany bullits to kill some one online.

I love it!

It is awesome! I love multiplayer, I love Single-player, and I love the Skirmish modes as well! The game is based on Medal of Honor European Assault, where you get to use health packs when you need to. The missions take place in Belgium, Italy, and Holland, as you starring as Lt. Jimmy Patterson with 3 other guys to back you up when you need help supressing the enemy. Bottom line is: It is a fun game for those who enjoyed European Assault.

Great game

Medal of Honor Heroes is actually better than Rising Sun and European Assult. This game has multiplayer, skrimish- where you can go to a level filled with other soldiers and it is every man for himself. Then of course there is campain. Campain is fun but it is always the same thing- kill someone or protect a base which is fun at first but gets a little boring after a while but I still love this game!

This game overall is awsome. It is better than all the medal of honor games and is more intense.

If I were you I would definatly get or rent this game it is AWSOME

Good FPS for the PSP

I've been playing FPS since Doom 1 and since than I have been playing nothing but FPS and I know how to play a FPS like a champ, but this game right here was just plain fun.

The graphics: 5 out of 5-Simply amazing graphics on the PSP; it feels like I'm playing on the PS2 the graphics are that good.

The controls: 4 out of 5-Like any FPS, the controls take some getting used to; it took me at least five minutes to get used to the controls, once that was done oh it was ON!

Gameplay: 5 out of 5-Overall, this is a good FPS for the PSP; even though I'm sad to say that there are very few FPS for the PSP, this is a good one.

Storyline: 5 out of 5-Besides being an old school gamer coming from the old school days of Contra for the NES which is just shoot and run, the storyline is actually pretty good; basically you have to lead your men through the invasion of Italy, The Netherlands, and eventually working your way out to Nazi Germany which along the way you have to get things like the Enigma, classified papers about the Axis, and some other stuff too so unlike Contra, this is not shoot and run.

So if you have a PSP and want to get your FPS on, this is the game for you.
