Due to the lack of new games, two nights ago i decided to install and play Call of Duty 2.
One go, non stop. I went in normal mode and didn't stop until i had liberated Europe. It took me all evening, all night and most of the morning...
What an experience. I can never get tired of this game.
Then, the next day, i decided to reminisce a little more and i installed Medal of Honor Pacific Assault.
Now, this game is obviously good. Very good. The scenery and overall graphics are superior. The vegetation sways, the water looks good and the character movement is more realistic than COD2's. The jungles were lush and very well made, but i stopped playing this game shortly after landing on the first island. It's got nice features but doesn't come anywhere near comparing to the end to end action of COD2. The gameplay is wank compared to COD2's. I mean, if i were to play multiplayer, i would choose COD2 without hesitation. In fact, you can also use tanks and vehicles in COD2.
I would have to say that Activision totally outshone EA.
Medal of Honor Allied Assault, and the subsequent add-ons, are another story.
The storyline, atmosphere and music were incredible. It was like being in a movie. They had a good mix of covert missions and all out battles. They even enlisted the help of Spielberg, and the great Gary Oldman lent his voice for one of the add-ons, which is cool.
Then COD came in with a relatively innovative feature though. The down the sights aiming. Genious. They weren't the first to put this to use, but still. Shooting Nazis with an Enfield rifle had never been so enjoyable.
Anyway, all in all, i really enjoyed the first MOH but i'm going to stick with COD2. Actually, i'm off to buy the new add-on! Big Red One!
