There is really no controversy. Another way to try to kill the game

4cough4940d ago

The game, killed the game.

you should learn to enjoy games instead of your little triple a games philosphy that reigns supreme at n4g

isa_scout4940d ago (Edited 4940d ago )

the game is actually very good if you would actually give it a try i think you would agree. reviewers just bashed it because it doesn't carry the COD name. anyone that's played MW2 and has any sense could tell you that much. does the game have flaws? of course, the snipes in the multiplayer is overused and theirs a few small bugs throughout the campaign, but nothing on MW2's level of mediocrities. no it's not perfect, but i've been playing games on all systems for about 20 years now and from my experience i've NEVER played a perfect game. just enjoy the d@mn thing and quit over analysing it just like the soldier said it's entertainment nothing more.

RankFTW4940d ago

The game is awesome, it's just too many people are like sheep and have not even played the game before criticizing it.

XXXCouture4940d ago

they read some lame review and comes with the exact same cos and pros.. like you say, what a bunch of hypocrite sheeps...

SMW4940d ago

Agreed. Lacked the big Wow moments MW has, but still overall a better game IMO.

Made me think actually, that Sony needs to get a studio making a Modern Warfare style game with the KZ engine. I found my self hitting L2 constantly trying to get into cover....

360nPS3rTheSAME4940d ago

A real world military shooter with the kz engine. I'd definitely buy that. I'm into kz but I'm not much of a sci-fi shooter so that would music to my ears.

SMW4940d ago

Yeah. I really hope someone is doing it. Im sure Sony is completely dumb...

360nPS3rTheSAME4940d ago

but to bring attention to the idea you should do an article about that. That's a great idea that I bet sony isn't even considering.

Ares84PS34940d ago

Awesome in my book is different.

I was actually looking forward to the game but after 2days of playing, beating the campaign mode and playing some hours online I can safely say that this game is anything but awesome.

It's short in every department.

The story mode is extreamly short. On hard it took me less than 6hours and that's just because I was looking around the environment.

The mp mode is a joke. 3classes with 3-4weapons each than for extra weapons you get the enemy armies weapons??? WTF is that??

Leveling system is also a joke. You can't talk to your friends in the lobby you create. You can't talk to your friends while the game loads up and it takes a very long time to load a map.

Other shooters walk all over this one.

To be fair...it could have been a great game but I think it was rushed out way too early.

This game isn't awesome. Stop defending it.

BeOneWithTheGun4939d ago (Edited 4939d ago )

And not only is "hard" mode a joke, so is the AI. Graphics are laughable and it felt like I was playing Battlefield 1943 with turbans. I'm not dogging the game to be a prick, I was really excited for this game but once I started playing it I felt so let down. I have never seen so many jaggies...yes, graphics are not everything but I expect to be able to look at a window and not feel like I'm tripping on acid.

EDIT: Yes, I played the entire game. I have the trophies to prove it. BeOneWithTheGun = PSN handle.

Hufandpuf4940d ago

The game is great, it's not the best out there but many people who have played the game highly respect it for what it is, a realistic and modern shooter. Sure it has flaws in snigleplayer, like lo-res textures and is buggy sometimes, but it tells a story that everyone needs to experience. It's an experience that makes you respect to soldiers in the war. The game just suffers from the lack of the save the world feeling that Call Of Duty or Bad Comapany 2 has, and because of that it has faced flak from gamers, but accolades from reviewers and observers because of it's authenticity. PLAY THE DAMN GAME FIRST!!!

dalibor4940d ago

I am going to pick this game up. Some of my online buddies who have this game have told me it's good. Plus I have supported COD franchise already, haven't supported MOH this generation of gaming yet so I will def. pick up MOH now.

m-s-8-24940d ago

My thoughts on the game. SIngle player is dull, only up to the 4th mission and having trouble finding the motivation to continue. Multiplayer is like BC2 on a smaller scale, but still way ahead of CoD.

Mortimer74940d ago

Lame marketing from EA. First they say you can play as a Taliban to create controversy aka publicity then they delete this option. Another ''No Russian'' style marketing. Controversy is marketing these days.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

banger884d ago

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

FPS_D3TH2d ago

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

PrecursorOrb2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

The_Hooligan2d ago

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

Medal of Honor 2010 was a good start for a modern reboot. The campaign was fantastic. Multiplayer wasn't great but that's DICE's fault. I'd love if they went back to that game and gave it a proper sequel.

SlothLordPootus499d ago

I actually really liked the multiplayer in MoH 2010. Battlefield gunplay on small maps. I would love to see a Rising sun remake, the opening scene would be amazing to see.

SonyStyled499d ago

I enjoyed the multiplayer of MoH 2010. It felt like battlefield 3 in a way. The multiplayer in Warfighter was also pretty good but the campaigns single player story was not appealing with the whole family cutscene thing. Gameplay was fun though. MoH to me is the PS1/2 titles and I don’t expect to see a WW2 MoH after the last Call of Duty’s

Levii_92499d ago

PS1 MOH 1999 and 2000 (Underground) and Allied Assault PC is my childhood.. it's still soo good and it holds up. Not to mention Michael Giacchino's soundtrack is one of the best video game soundtracks ever made. Even if you weren't born in early to mid 90's go listen to the main theme of Allied Assault and you will be overloaded from nostalgia.

I miss this franchise a lot.

Iceball2000499d ago

I’ve always thought that MOH and Battlefield should be separate…

Have MOH as the full fledged single player with an amazing store and whatnot. And a basic multiplayer just to have multiplayer. Sorta like how the MOH reboot was.

And then have BF as the full fledged multiplayer with all effort put into that and ditch the single player. Maybe add Commander back in.

Only in a perfect world.

HeliosHex499d ago (Edited 499d ago )

Oh man medal of honor on pc was awesome back in the day. Multi-player was fun. Joined my first clan on medal of honor. Definitely deserves a comeback. But needs to be on the same level or surpass COD. Since it came out before that ip in 1999 to avoid embarrassment.

FGHFGHFGH499d ago

The guys who did Allied assault are the one who created call of duty. They're back at EA, Vince something

MadLad499d ago

I'll be the weird guy in the room and say I actually loved Warfighter. I thought the squad mechanics made it stand out a bit and thought the shooting felt good. Put a lot of time into the multiplayer.
