Medal of Honor WarFighter



Medal of honor has been around quite a while, one would hope that after 13 years the franchise would be going somewhere but sadly, that isn't the case. The franchise peaked almost 10  years ago with Medal of Honor Allied Assault and has been doomed to mediocrity ever since.


EA has made it a point to make every new game on the Frostbite 2 engine which, to be honest, does make the game look good but comes with a host of problems. The blinding bright scenes, sunlight in your eyes leaves you seeing spots and of course, the night missions where you cannot see people. You will go through sections of the campaign repeatedly because you won't know who killed you, and from where. 

Speaking of the campaign...it's one big blur. You will find it hard to connect with what's happening or why you are doing  what you are doing. You will go from are doing. You will go from mission to mission with the sole purpose of getting to the next area without any idea as to what is really happening and how it affects the
larger picture. 

A feature prominent throughout the campaign is the breach sequences, however they aren't as engaging as  you would imagine. While there are almost a dozen different ways to start a breech, they all end in you kicking down the door and shooting people with either your primary weapon or pistol. The multiplayer is a different story altogether. As is the case with EVERY military shooter in today's age, the MOH multiplayer is its saving grace. 

While its nothing spectacular it provides a much needed change from Call of Duty. All in all War fighter is a decent game, but don't expect a good campaign or multiplayer. If you want an alternative to Call of Duty then this is probably the best.

Overall Ratings: 6.5/10
