This review is from: Medal of Honor Allied Assault War Chest (CD-ROM)

I bought all 3 games as they came out, but if you haven't even gotten one yet, I reccommend you pick this up, especially if you love FPS games.

Allied Assault is a terrific single player and multiplayer game. The single player mission is pretty long with great graphics, sound, and some really awesome scenery. The sound of wind blowing, snow falling, dogs barking in the distance, and, well, everything is great about the game. the on-line side has many different modes of play (especially mods) and is exremely fun. It is still one of the top 5 games played on-line.

Spearhead gives you more maps and skins, and a very good though short single player mission.

Breakthrough is more of the same: Very good (but short) single player mission, more skins, more weapons, and more maps. There is also a very cool (at least i liked it) game mode call liberation where you get put in jail when you die and your remaining teammates try to free you until everyone from one team is dead.

All in all, you can't beat this for the price they are charging. An awesome deal.

Pretty good game. Graphics in Allied Assault are older, but the expansion packs are excellent. I would also recommend the Multiplayer part of either Spearhead or Breakthrough. It's a really fun game and I highly recommend it to all WW2 buffs, and Video Game buffs.

This review is from: Medal of Honor Allied Assault War Chest (CD-ROM)

WOW - you get all three for a FANTASTIC price. BUY IT!

If you like "Call of Duty" from the historical point of view and like first person shooters, you have to get this. It doesn't have quite the graphics effects of COD - because it was an earlier game - but it isn't bad AT ALL. Movement is slightly different but plays about the same. Has realistic feel except for 1 level which I thought was too much a fantasy level. Best part, if you get stuck somewhere there is a lot of walkthrough info on the internet and there are game "cheats" that are pretty easy to find and use if you get stuck.

If you really liked WW2 in general and like COD, get this game. The Omaha Beach scenes makes the game worth the price. Don't be fooled by some reviews that only boast about how much better COD is. I have played both and enjoyed them equally. If I could only buy 1 game COD or MOH - I would buy this set with the expansion packs. I played COD first and loved it. BUT ... this one had a better overall feel. Especially in the sniper levels. It is exciting to finally find the guy who's been shooting at you. If you are into the WW2 games, you will find something you really liked in all the MOH and COD games that make them worth buying and playing.

PS ... again, you hear negative stuff about the MEDAL of HONOR games because SOMEONE likes the COD series "better" - but the MEDAL games have some awesome levels - and yes they all have some things that could be done better. Don't forget the MOH - Pacific Assault. It is a newer game and worth buying/playing, but I didn't think it was as good as Allied Assult.
