After playing Medal of Honor I can safely say it is on my day one buy list. The game is by Dice who also developed Battlefield Bad Company 2 and it shows. The shooting and movement is very akin to Battlefield Bad Company 2 but Medal of Honor seems to be a bit faster. So for the most part Medal of Honor came across to me as a game sitting somewhere in between Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield Bad Company 2. Faster than Battlefield 2 but slower than Modern Warfare 2 in way that makes it more tactical and less twitchy than Modern Warfare 2 which for me is perfect.
The kiosks were linked and what was playable was the multiplayer mode. The stage I played seemed a bit inspired by Modern Warfare 2 which is not a bad thing. The graphics and sound are great and I like the Battlefield Bad Company 2 graphics and style over Modern Warfare 2 so Medal of Honor seems to hit every point and every request in terms of multiplayer at least which is what was playable. I was impressed and looking forward to the beta that begins on PS3 in a few days. The xbox 360 beta was just delayed for some reason.
