Product Description
In Medal of Honor Allied Assault™ from Electronic Arts, players will
assume the role of Lt. Mike Powell, member of the famed 1st Ranger Battalion
who gets recruited by the OSS and battles through over 20 levels that
are based on historical military campaigns of World War II.
Set during the most trying years of the war, 1942-1945, Medal of Honor
Allied Assault gives players a sense of the courage it took to survive
the landings at Normandy, the assault at Arzew, a rendezvous with the
Resistance outside the village of St. Lo, and the push through the heavily
defended border of Germany itself to take the bridge at Remagen.
Staying true to all the gameplay features that made Medal of Honor™
one of the most acclaimed and best-selling games launched in 1999, Medal
of Honor Allied Assault will build on the success of that game and add
new player weapons, new interactive Allied vehicles such as Sherman
tanks and M3 Half Tracks, smarter enemy AI, and the ability to call
for artillery strikes.
Medal of Honor Allied Assault is headquartered in Cabinet War Rooms
at Whitehall, dispatching players on numerous campaigns, each with specific
objectives to meet in terms of infiltration, execution and exfiltration.
Missions will be based in the deserts of North Africa, on the bloody
shores of France, across the tundra of Norway, and, ultimately, over
the Rhine into Nazi Germany. These missions range from silencing the
gun batteries at Port Arzew, to sabotaging U-boats at the sub pens of
Trondheim, surviving the landing at Omaha Beach, and finally, holding
the Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen- the only battle where the Germans
used their dreaded V2 rockets in a tactical capacity
EALA continues to work closely with the Congressional Medal of Honor
Society (CMOHS) to ensure Medal of Honor Allied Assault reflects the
ideals and integrity of the prestigious Medal of Honor. Electronic Arts
is privileged to be partnered with CMOHS in the Society's continuing
education and awareness efforts. You can learn more about the Society
and the recipients at the official Society website, www.cmohs.org

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...
