4.0 out of 5 stars A More Realistic Doom., May 12, 2002

This review is from: Medal of Honor: Underground (Video Game)

After extensively spending some time with the E3 build, I have to admit that I am quite impressed. The graphical system is pretty good, especially for a handhled system. I really have a lot of respect for a near-perfect port of the Playstation original. A nice variety of WWII weapons are present, and they are fairly easy to aim and use. There are also quite a few levels that are really large in size, which is very surprising for the Game Boy Advance. Also, the game is better than Doom, as it is more realistic and the enemies are much easier to see. Unfortanutley, it is just too damn dark. The Game Boy Advance is not backlit, and this just reminds of that. It is also a port of the Playstation game. Medal of Honor: Underground lacks the polish of the original and the new additions found in the Playstation 2 game, Medal of Honor Frontline. Environments are bland, and enimies can sometimes be too tough. There is never enough ammunition, either. However, this game is eaisly the best first-person shooter to grace the Game Boy Advance. It is more realistic than Doom, longer than Ecks Versus Server, and is much easier to navigate than the bloody tradedgy that was Wolfstein 3D. This game is good stuff, and I strongly recommend it to anyone who feels like murduring some of those damn, virtual, Nazis. Damn fine. Damn, Damned, fine.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, February 3, 2003

This review is from: Medal of Honor: Underground (Video Game)

While the GBA has had a steady flow of great first person shooters (Doom 2 and Duke Nukem Advance to name a few), this anxiously awaited conversion of Medal of Honor: Underground is a huge disappointment considering all of the hype put into it. First off you will immediately notice the insanely grainy and choppy graphics. All of the environments and textures appear very blocky and blend in with one another more often than they should. Also, the frame rate is very sluggish, and if you have enemies behind you you won't be able to get a shot off at them until they get a few shots in themselves. While all that is the game's only true flaw, Medal of Honor: Underground still has a lot going for it: throughout the various missions you'll have to escort resistance members or steal military secrets from the enemy which is a nice change of pace from the usual mindless killing that has been abundant in first person shooters from the days of Wolfenstein 3-D. The game's soundtrack is great and is nearly identical to that of the original Medal of Honor game for the PS1, and the control is nice and tight for the most part, but thanks to the godawful graphics presentation, this game is a huge disappointment. All in all, those who have anxiously awaited this game will not be happy with it, and while Medal of Honor: Underground isn't a bad game at all, it is simply not worth purchasing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of time..., December 12, 2002

This review is from: Medal of Honor: Underground (Video Game)

I love how people that havnt even played this game rate it 5 stars. The only reason i gave it one star is because that's the lowest you can select. This game was so horrible, the graphics were the worst i've ever seen on GBA, I am not cheap but I actually took this game back to the store where I bought it and demanded a refund. The missions in the game, a joke, you pretty much walk right into them. And walking around is even a joke, i've never seen such choppy framerate in a game in my life!! Also when you shoot your weapon it's so slow i'm surprised your not dead by the time you get your second shot off. My advice, dont waste your time or money on this game. I would compare this game to Duke Nukem Advance as Duke being a 10 outta 10 and Medal of Honor being a 1 out of Million!!!
