Medal of Honor: Airborne

The latest installment of the franchised game, Medal of Honor, this game gives you a little more of a twist than the average WWII shooter does. Brought to you by EA Games, makers of the Battlefield series and the newest Crysis, shows us another historical view of what some of our soldiers did during WWII that allowed us the upper hand advantage in the European war front.

One of the fundamental twists that this game allows is that the weapons you use get modified once you have hit a quota of kills with that weapon. So, with the American firearms, you have the Springfield Sniper rifle, Springfield M1 Garand, the Thompson Machine Gun, the Colt 1911 and the Mossberg Shotgun. Each has roughly 3 upgrades. Even the grenades have upgrades too.

I have played this on both the Xbox 360 and the PC and have to say that I was a little disappointed with the lack of difference between platforms. Generally, there is usually a small difference, but in this case, they are identical. With that said, if you decide to purchase this game, make sure to decide on the platform that best suits you. In this case, I preferred the PC, and it runs great. Since I am a huge fan of that era of games, I recommend it. If not to play multi-player mode, but to play the campaign. I really enjoyed it. I wont ruin it, but it could also be a little longer.
