Product Description ------------------- All right, soldier! Head back behind enemy lines with Lt. Jimmy Patterson in Medal of Honor: Frontline.

In Frontline, you go behind enemy lines as Lieutenant Jimmy Patterson. Your missions include the D-day assault on Omaha Beach, tracking your Nazi nemesis aboard a speeding armored train, the epic battle for control of the Nijmegen Bridge, a strategic choke point in the Allied drive into the heart of Nazi Germany, and a top-secret, high-risk mission to steal the Ho IX flying wing. The Ho IX is an experimental Nazi jetfighter so powerful it could turn the tide of World War II. There are 20 levels of gameplay spread across six major missions, all based on real World War II events and all adding up to one complete and uninterrupted story line. Fully realized and highly-detailed 3-D environments include six times the number of nonplayer character animations as in the original Medal of Honor. The game includes detailed German, British, and American troops, as well as Dutch civilians, all with full facial expressions and lip synch. More than 20 authentic WWII weapons include the Colt .45, Springfield sniper , Panzerschreck rocket launcher, MG42 ed machine , and the Browning automatic .

Go it alone to accomplish your mission with the utmost stealth or work as part of a highly trained unit to wreak havoc on the enemy.

Jimmy Patterson. This time the setting is June 6, 1944--D-day and beyond--and the game begins with you storming the beachhead at Normandy. Frontline definitely lives up to its name, and from the outset the action is intense. As you rush up the shingle while comrades fall beside you and artillery rings in your ears, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were on the set of Saving Private Ryan. Players of the PC incarnation will recognize this mission from Allied Assault ( /exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005N7YR/${0} ), but here is where the similarities end. Frontline is a new game with new objectives and levels designed perfectly for the console. If you survive D-day, you enter the real meat of the game--Operation Market Garden (Arnhem). From scuttling a U-boat to clearing checkpoints in the town itself, the missions are brilliantly designed. The true playability of the Medal of Honor series is how immersive it is: the narrative, graphics, and sound all combine to create one of the most gripping first-person shooters in any format. The backgrounds are beautifully detailed, but the sound really sets the game apart. The control system is also intuitive, with the option to customize your controller or choose one of the two default options: MOH sharpshooter (two-analog-stick control) or the original controls used in the PS One's Medal of Honor. Only two criticisms can be leveled at the game. First, the artificial intelligence errs on the stupid side, with enemies standing around watching comrades get , and although this changes with the difficulty level, it never responds in a particularly human way. Second, you can only save at the end of a mission (always a feature of console conversions), so it's quite frustrating to be unceremoniously dumped right back at the beginning after battling your way through a level. But hey, this is war, after all, and these are small niggles against a genuinely phenomenal game. Sign up now: the Allies need you. --Kristen Bowditch -- .co.uk See more ( javascript:void(0) )
