De marketingverantwoordelijke van Medal of Honor: Airborne heeft zijn job ongetwijfeld uitstekend gedaan. Onder het mantra van minder lineariteit en spectaculaire parachutesprongen werd door previewers en EA de heropstanding van de WO2-reeks bezongen.

The non-linear missions and airborne attacks aren't the only unique features to the game. As you use weapons in the game you'll gain experience with that weapon. Each weapon has 3 levels to unlock, and at each level you'll gain new abilities with the weapons like improved accuracy, bigger clips, and...

Non Linear Mission Structure; Impressive Graphics; Unique approach to missions

Nowadays when someone jumps out of a plane, they're doing it for the unforgettable thrill. The freedom of movement during this free-falling experience has created a business where people pay to be dropped from several thousand feet. They call this crazy-but-exciting expedition "skydiving.

Stu discovers that the Medal of Honor series isn't dead and buried after all.

Jumping out of a plane isn't a decision that most people take lightly, even if it is with a modern, super-reliable parachute, and preferably a friendly instructor. Consider, then, the idea of jumping out of a cramped WW2 crate and guiding a somewhat unrefined silk handkerchief into the middle of a...

It's not all bad news. Graphically, the game shines, utilising Epic's Unreal 3 Engine to sparkling effect. While not quite Gears of War caliber, Airborne's ability to render huge wide open areas with tons of action on screen, thrown in with its jaw-dropping use of full-screen motion blur, all create...
