Medal of Honor: Frontline D-Day (PS2)

This is the first level in the 2002 WWII FPS Medal of Honor: Frontline.

This is probably my favorite openning level ever. It's extremely intense, even today. The scripting is brilliant and the sound design is so good that it's hard to believe that it's coming from the PS2. Everything about this level is awesome.

In regards to the game itself, it's great one. The level design throughout the game is probably some of the best on the system for shooters. The Germans look and sound extremely convincing and use cover often. Weapons are loud and satisfying to use and there is a good variety of them as well. Frontline also has some of the best music on the PS2. Even if you think this game looks dated, I implore you to give it a try. It's a good, old-fashioned shooter that has a lot more charm than most games from the current generation. If nothing else, buy it for the D-Day scene.

People can not say this is not realistic. Ok, it may not be as realistic nowdays compared to the current MWF 3, but when this came out, it was seen as a break through for gaming and graphics.

@jamesthemod This won't be the first time I've said this, but neither of those game series have ever even come within spitting distance of "realistic". Not even close.

Still, Frontline is a damn good game. It's definitely the best WWII game on the PS2.

Good game on ps2, but overrated since it had nothing for for shooters. PC version was miles better. Oh and the jump from ps1 to ps2 is why it got great scores. But after a few months it was already old. It came out on cube and Xbox, and were cleaner running ports, but got way lower scores. It aged badly. It's like a bad version of Cod1.

Medal of honor 1 on ps1 now that's a classic.

@oasisbeyond What PC version? Frontline never got a PC port. You must be thinking of Allied Assault, a completely different game made by a completely different developer. Personally, I thought Frontline was a lot better than Allied Assault. Frontline didn't have all of the cookie-cutter bullshit (infinitely respawning enemies, heavy scripting) that was pretty much introduced in AA and bled into this generation.

The PS2 has plenty of shooters, too. You just have to look for them.

@ariya123321 Congratulations. You know the "F" word and how to use Caps Lock. I'm sure you're parents are so proud. Have a cookie.

I miss the feeling of playing ps2 games on crappy tv's. That feeling that's in all of us as a kid or adult. Now today its all 1337 this N00b that, remember when games actually had meaning instead of, "3 seconds of intense singleplayer" to qoute one video.

They don't make FPS like this anymore it's all about multiplayer which is good but what about a good story campaign?
