Medal of Honor and Medal of Honor Underground Twin Pack - PlayStation

Set in 1944, towards the end of the second world war, you play the interactive first person shoot-em-up that is Medal of Honor in war-torn cities all over Europe. Right at the start of the game, you are given two simple offensive weapons, a shotgun, and a handful grenades. While these options may seem a little limited, the CPU controlled Nazis are thin on the ground too, so you should be able to negotiate the opening scenes with little trouble. Naturally, as with any learning curve in a game worth its salt, more weapons become available as the difficulty level, and the number of enemies increases.

Medal of Honor was a massive success on the PlayStation, and more was in store for those who liked to immerse themselves in their war games. Medal of Honor Underground was the inevitable sequel, and another great reason to pick up this bargain pack. Underground puts players in the role of Manon, the young member of the French Resistance introduced as Jimmy Patterson’s 'control' in Medal of Honor. Set prior to the start of the original MOH, Medal of Honor Underground gives players a sense of the courage it took to survive in occupied France with D-Day four long years away.

Both of these games were minor classics in their own right and are certainly worthy of re-appraisal. For those who never experienced the first fruits of the MOH franchise, look no further, and for less than a score, you really can't go wrong. more
