Will we give the green light to this paratrooper shooter?

The latest in the long running Medal of Honor series throws gamers into the thick of the action, from a moving plane! Step into the boots of a WWII Airborne Ranger and freefall from above the clouds, whilst deciding where to safely land in a raging, action packed battlefield.

From sabotaging AA guns in a Sicilian hilltop town to war-winning triumphs in Germany, the ability to determine your own insertion point means no two games are ever the same. Land on the roof of a church for a superior vantage point and a stealthy approach or hit the dirt with the rest of your squad and engage in a guns blazing frontal assault. The choice is yours!

But wherever you land, be prepared to face a ruthless enemy that lays down covering fire, calls in heavy weaponry and generally makes sure your trigger finger never gets time for a rest.

A wide variety of authentic, customisable weapons are at your disposal, each with distinct characteristics. The game's producers sought counsel from numerous expert sources to make certain the game is historically accurate and as true to the WWII Airborne experience as possible adding to the intensity of the cinematic, story-driven game.

Where Medal of Honor games always fell down in the past was the feeling of being on one long and rather repetitive conveyor belt of admittedly epic but rather restrictive action. The amount of times we wanted to jump over a hedge or dodge behind a building only to face an invisible wall blocking our survival instincts was enough to turn us off altogether. Thanks to the unique 'drop from anywhere' approach to the missions, the feeling of repetition is little more than a distant memory! This is by far the most fun we've ever had with a MoH game.

Medal of Honor Airborne is an intense experience that never fails to entertain. Go, Go, Go!
