Medal of Honor Airborne Announced

Electronic Arts announced today Medal of Honor Airborne, the newest installment from EA's critically-acclaimed Medal of Honor franchise which was credited with pioneering the First-Person Shooter (FPS) WWII genre when it debuted in 1999. While building on the key tenets of the franchise including historical accuracy and authenticity, Medal of Honor Airborne is set to redefine the series by introducing players to an entirely new way of experiencing a WWII FPS – namely the fully interactive Airborne experience. As the first game in the Medal of Honor series to be released on next generation platforms, Medal of Honor Airborne will ship to stores in Winter 2006 under the EA brand for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment systems, Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system, Xbox videogame system from Microsoft, and Windows PC.

Step into the boots of Boyd Travers, Private First Class of the 82nd Airborne Division and engage in battles throughout Europe. From rocky beginnings in Sicily to war-winning triumphs in Germany, each mission begins behind enemy lines, with an intense and fully interactive airdrop. Your ability to determine your own starting point dramatically changes the way each mission plays out. View the entire operation from the air, and then control your parachute to choose your landing spot. On the ground, gather your senses and assess the terrain. A wide variety of authentic, customizable weapons are at your disposal, each with distinct characteristics. Choose your path in this free roaming FPS environment. Medal of Honor Airborne will also feature exceptionally photo-realistic characters, adding to the intensity of the cinematic, story-driven game.

"Medal of Honor Airborne is a step in a new direction for the franchise. While integrating our state-of-the-art, next-gen technology into every aspect of the game, we are introducing innovations that will redefine the series and impact the genre as a whole," explained Patrick Gilmore, VP and Executive Producer at EALA. "By fully controlling the airdrop from your very first step through landing, Medal of Honor Airborne adds a new dimension of player choice by letting you decide where every mission begins and how it plays out."

The Medal of Honor Airborne development team continues to ensure that the ideals and integrity of the prestigious congressional Medal of Honor are accurately reflected in the game. The 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. Serving as a military spokesperson for Medal of Honor Airborne, Capt. Dale Dye, who has worked as the Military Technical Advisor for the last 7 Medal of Honor games, will help to create a truly authentic experience.

Developed by EA Los Angeles (EALA), Medal of Honor Airborne has not yet been rated by PEGI. For more information on Medal of Honor Airborne and the Medal of Honor franchise, please visit: www.moh.ea.com.

To bad it's multiplatform, oh well, it still looks very good !

8 - even if they.....
Unregistered - the man 01.17.2006 17:08
Even if they are the same the PS3 will still look better my reason is

Xbox 360 720p/1080i PS3 1080p


9 - maybe
Unregistered - Mantook 01.17.2006 18:11
I am pretty sure it will look better on 360 since its so much easier to program for it. Ps3 whens it coming out dammit.

There's a flaw in your logic, EA will NOT (This is a no brainer) develop a seperate version that is optimised for 1080p. I doubt even 5-10% of the games that will be released for PS3 will support it, but that's a different matter. What it comes down to is that not a single multiplatform game (Especially one that's also being developed for PC, the Xbox/PS2 is seperate, not the PC version) will support 1080p on the PS3.

This is proof that Killzone trailer was 100 percent fake, but next generation systems will achieve that quality of cgi graphics in the next 2 years, said Tim Miller. Check this out(http://www.gametrailers.com/gamehead.php)on gametrailers.com. The truth, and nothing but the truth!!!!!!!!

You have to be the most retarded person ever; IF YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW THINGS WORK, DON'T TALK ABOUT IT.

Having 1080i/p HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SYSTEMS OR THE DEVELOPER; 3 MULTI-O/I DEVICES DETERMINE IT.

*Sigh* Your IQ is showing =P I like how you try to act like I don't know what I'm talking about, and then you start unloading some bs comment. The resolution a console game supports has EVERYTHING to do with the developers. Games need to be optimised for higher resolutions on consoles moron.

The stupid thing is, you could have figured this out by yourself. Just who is retarded here? Why don't you try playing a current PS2/Xbox game on a tv that supports 1080p and while using the HD input instead of standard component. Notice something? Rrrrright.

Point 2, why do you think MS has a minimum allowable optimisation for games (740p)? Think before you post idiot.

Games need to be optimised for 740p, 1080i, 1080p. And this costs big money the higher you go, expecting most games (or even half) to support 1080p is wishful thinking. It's never going to happen.


14 - ummm #13
BillGatesSucks 01.19.2006 15:10
MS has set a minimun resolution of 720p, not 740p. Anyway, no biggie. My guess is, if this is a multi-platformer, it's going to look pretty much the same on both consoles considering it's a first gen game. We'll start seeing the differences in later first party titles when developers for each have really gotten a hold of what the systems can do. Which also means later multi-platformers might start looking different on the two consoles as well if the title is developed for one console first then ported over eg. Splinter Cell or Ghost Recon.

17 - I dont care
Unregistered - RavenSlayer 117 01.20.2006 10:29
I dont care what the 360 fans say or the Nintendeo fans or you PS3 fans say. All the consoles will rock im going to try to get all three. Right now i have my 360 that will keep me happy until PS3 comes out. As for the Revelation it will be good but the 360 and PS3 will be far better in graphics and in game play. But to stay on the topic they looks great and im sure that will be even better when it comes out and we get to play it. And we as 360 fanboys and PS3 fanboys need to stop dogging both consoles they both rock.

18 - wassup #16
BillGatesSucks 01.20.2006 18:02
Okay smart guy, LINK? You're obviously talking out of your ass because anyone who's been reading up on the consoles knows the 360 cannot do above 1080i. Actually PGR3 can't even natively run 720p at 30fps without being upscaled. So wassup, YOU can STF UP!

20 - Sad
Unregistered - PS3 Fan 01.21.2006 15:13
it's sad we PS fans don't have a next gen console to play around with. I am tiered with PS2 graphics.

There is no news about PS3. No price tag so I can save enough and plan for the future. All they do is say this game is going to be on PS3 and this is what it will look like. But there is nothing real to talk about.

it would be nice to have something real to talk about and compare with the 360. So we can say without a doubt PS3 is better.

Do you think they have run in to trouble with PS3 and they actually cannot deliver what they were talking about? I heard there are manufacturing issues with the cell processor.

turkmen117 01.22.2006 04:28
the guy who said xbox360 can handle 2160p

you should be in a hall of shame, too bad this site doesnt got any

you accuse others being stupid wich will give the illusion that you arent, but you are. and the "BUAHAHAHAHAhalo 3 rocks" comment

have you played it?
have you seen screenshots?
or even better have you seen real-time screen shots?
the same goes for the videos
have you read prewievs about a halo3 trailer behind closed doors?

no, so my advice to you is: read "BillGatesSuck"s comment just after the one you did


23 - Answer these questions
Unregistered - PS3 idiots 01.22.2006 11:02
turkmen117

have you seen PS3 in action?
have you seen a real demo on it?
Have you seen real game time video?
Do you know a price tag for it?
do you know when it's going to be released?
do you know how the controller is going to be like?
do you have a online service?

DO you know anything about this supposed console?

so you STFU. You know nothing to talk about anyting about the PS3.

im no fanboy but you xbox idiots would really wanna stop sucking bill off. Its no secret that the ps3 is more powerful than the 360 so theres no point trying to argue it, and most definitley PS3 will outsell it seen as though there are more ps fans out there and more demand for it. The 360 hasnt sold half as many units as ms had hoped and you can be assured the PS3 will be like gold dust for the first few months its out. And at the end of the day its all about the games isnt it?? Halo and Doom3 are prob up in my top 10 of all time faves, but i didnt get them on xbox, i got them for pc, which will be the same for the 360. Any games that come out on it will be available for pc so whats the point in getting a 360??? Im saving my bucks for the PS3.

You are right bloop.

XBoxfanboys, why are you here? Can't you get the system, oh yeah, thats right, ms has problems with delivering the x360. Go to your forum and talk about games and stuff, you have your fun now, we have it later. If you have got a x360, then go PLAY IT damnit. My money is on ps3, just like ps2 an ps. Don't try to convince us, but plz leave and let us wait for some news from sony.


27 - 600,000 units sold
Unregistered - PS3 Idiots 01.23.2006 22:48
600,000 units sold in US alone. If there were more consoles they would have easily done 3 million by now.

While PS3 is a no show. This supposed console doesn't even have s single playable demo. Where is the proof its better than 360? All you have is a bogus spec sheet. Why is Sony hiding it!!! They must be sh1tting their pants by now.

Unregistered - bloop 01.24.2006 01:08
Meanwhile they cant get rid of them in game stores in Japan and haven't sold half as many as predicted in Europe. And I doubt very much that Sony are sh!tting themselves. Im not biased for any console, the competition is always good for us or else the companies wouldnt try to get the most out of their products. But I think Sony have something big planned. They're def not up sh!t creek.

29 - SHUT UP

I just wish everyone would stfu about which is a better console. I am not a fanboy of either microsoft, nintendo or sony! i will be purchasing an xbox 360 as i feel it is a great console despite what everyone says and one which will only continue to get better as more games come out. I also think that all sony fanboys should stop talking trash about other consoles! I do feel that sony has the edge in terms of power, developer support and future proofing the console with blue ray but THE GAMES?!WHERE ARE THEY?!WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO BE SHOWN?!I will DEFINATELY get a ps3 if it lives up to all the hype but until then i will be quite happy playing an xbox 360! I think all fanboys should stop all the trash talking, xbox fanboys, if you want a 360, get one, play it, be happy, no need to come to an ps3 fan site and post stupid retarded comments! Ps3 fanboys just sit and waite, dont talk trash on xbox 360, there is no point! As far as im concerned the next generation sony has in the bag, they will retain their number spot, xbox 360 in 2nd and revolution last. If anyone knows when ps3 information will be released to the public PLEASE let me know?! It is definately the console im most excited about and from what ive read its the one the most developers are too! PEACE OUT AND FOR F*CK SAKE, JUST ENJOY GAMING FOR WHAT IT IS....FUN!!!!!

Do you remember the ps2-launch? When was everything revealed? That's right a MONTH before launch. They are quiet, because otherwhise ms can spread more fud about the ps3. Now they know nothing and are scared as hell. Sony will give a conference in feb btw.
