In October Medal of Honor comes out. The game should be the restart of a once groundbreaking and acclaimed series. Where Medal of Honor began, and where it went wrong? Read this special all about the Medal of Honor franchise.
The beginning of the Medal of Honor series is in the film industry. Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan was a realistic film about the Second World War. The director had the idea to make a game for the same. The game studio film company DreamWorks if this shooter will develop. Medal of Honor came out in 1999, and did something that still had not done any shooter before: bring realism to the genre. The player was in the shoes of Lt. Jimmy Patterson, who was recruited to run by the end of the Second World War. Out special missions by the OSS The game was historically accurate, thanks to military advisor Dale Dye, who watched during development or banging things as weapons, uniforms and sounds.

The graphics were very good for the time and the artificial intelligence of the opponent was better than we had seen before in a videogame.
Not long after the release of Medal of Honor publisher EA developer bought DreamWorks Interactive on. Today EA studio called Los Angeles. In 2000, there was already a sequel, Medal of Honor: Underground. xmm The game took place at the beginning of World War II off and the main character was now a soldier, but a French (female) resistance xmm fighter who was recruited for secret missions in Europe and Africa. The OSS The main character is based on Hélène Deschamps Adams, an OSS member and resistance fighter during World War II. Also Medal of Honor: Underground xmm was well received.
After Underground Medal of Honor ball really started to roll. The first two titles came only for the PlayStation (1). Then the franchise went multiplatform. xmm The studio made in 2015 for the PC Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. The game was published in January 2002 and is considered the best Medal of Honor game. Levels in the game are often compared to the sets of Saving Private Ryan and the storming of Omaha Beach on D-Day was almost verbatim. Other major operations xmm of World War II were reenacted in the game. What Allied Assault did, was scripting events in game. This ensured that the game was even more spectacular. Today scripted events are very often used in games. In addition to the gripping single player Medal of Honor also supported multiplayer for up to 64 people. Developer 2015, however, no other Medal of Honor games make more. Some of the employees resigned and founded a new studio, Infinity Ward. This developer would release xmm in 2003, Call of Duty, the major competitor of Medal of Honor. EA LA announced the expansion of Allied Assault Spearhead. There were new weapons added British and Russian-made, and the new campaign took place from D-Day, in which the player as a paratrooper Jack Barnes dropped behind the Atlantic defensive wall and fights among others in the famous Battle of the Bulge. The studio TKO Software provided the second extension, Breakthrough, which took place in North Africa and later in Italy.

The goal of the game was partly to get the design of the Horten Ho 229 airplane wing-shaped, jet-powered prototype bomber. Also from this Medal of Honor game was received very well. The sequel, xmm Rising Sun, came a year later on the same platforms and was also made by EA LA. The war in Europe had now been imitated often enough, so was another battle of World War II selected for this game. Rising Sun focused on the war between the United States and Japan, and began at Pearl Harbor, where the protagonist is located during the surprise attack. The receipt of this game was significantly less than in the previous xmm Medal of Honor games. The poor artificial intelligence and linear level design xmm were among other criticisms. The protagonists xmm of Rising Sun were Joe Griffin and his brother Donnie, and in a follow these soldiers would once again play the role, but because of the poor reception the sequel held off.

Underground was three years after the original, a separate version for the handheld, made by Rebellion. xmm Medal of Honor: Infiltrator came exclusively from the GBA, which the player Jake Murphy had to complete five missions in verse
