The concept, story, and executive production of the first three games was made by Spielberg, who later sold the franchise for Electronic Arts in February 2000. The music in the franchise was composed by Michael Giacchino, Christopher Lennertz and Ramin Djawadi.

MOH doesn’t quite reach this lofty goal, though, and the online component just doesn’t manage to best COD. It’s just not as smooth and instantly accessible, and the total feel of control Infinity Ward nailed isn’t there. With DICE producing such a brilliant multiplayer title as Bad Company 2, I had very high hopes for MOH‘s online modes. The thought of a cross between COD and BC2 was tantalising, to say the least, and if done well enough, could be amazing, offering a game in the middle ground between the two, sitting in a nice niche area.Harrigan, Pat; Kirschenbaum, Matthew G., eds.

The Combat Mission mode alone is well worth a blast, and the other modes are similarly playable and enjoyable. The greater lean toward more realism than COD, along with a more focused class system is also refreshing. The map design, whilst not quite as tight as the competition, is more organic and free flowing, making ruined cities and open desert areas feel more realistic, and less robotic and corridor-based.

Medal of Honor: Heroes, a spin-off and the ninth game in the series, was developed and released for the PlayStation Portable in 2006. Medal of Honor: Vanguard, the tenth entry, was released for the PlayStation 2 and Wii in 2007. It was the first Medal of Honor game to be released on the Wii console. Medal of Honor: Airborne, the eleventh game in the series, was developed and released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC September 4, 2007; it was the first game in the series to be nonlinear. Twelfth entry Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 was released for the Wii and PlayStation Portable on November 13, 2007. It was a sequel of the first game in spin-off Heroes series.If anything, MOH is more about actual teamwork than COD, where you can often run off alone and still win matches. Here, working together makes a very real difference, and players drifting off on their lonesome are usually so much kibble. It’s tactical stuff, and works well, but I can’t help but feel that many will be put off by the sharp learning curve, something where COD excelled, welcoming players of all abilities. The series began in 1999 with Medal of Honor. The game was developed by DreamWorks Interactive, when at the time the studio and series were jointly owned by DreamWorks SKG and Microsoft Games, with the game concept and story created by filmmaker Steven Spielberg. The game was released for the PlayStation on October 31, 1999. [2] Spielberg's inspiration for the series emerged while directing and producing the World War II film Saving Private Ryan to create a game that can concurrently be an educational and entertaining experience. [3] [4] The gameplay originally focuses on the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), an American espionage organization during World War II, placing emphasis on using false papers and silenced pistols, but as the series and the technology has progressed, it has shifted emphasis towards front-line combat. Since the release of Medal of Honor: Rising Sun the series has focused on providing a more open-ended element to the games, allowing the player to have more options in each level instead of a linear path. The violence, up to Medal of Honor: Rising Sun is bloodless and simple, usually consisting of elaborate animations, while the violence in Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault and onward contains the occasional sprays of blood.

Compared directly to COD‘s single player, MOH is quite strong and, at a push, I’d actually say the two are very close. COD still has the edge, due to the far more believable and likable characters and the moments of emotional impact, but for overall atmosphere, military realism and general gameplay, the two are close.

Medal of Honor is a series of first-person shooter video games created by American film director and producer Steven Spielberg.
