    It may not be up to par with the games of today, but man this game was the **** when it was released. The controls felt perfect and it had an intriguing (and historically correct) storyline. Worth buying if you can find it somewhere.

    I will never forget playing this game back in June 2002 when i was just 21. It was just so amazing and so different, great graphics, great levels, great gameplay, long campaign, great soundtrack, it just blew me away from start to finish. It was also the game that started off the trend for World War 2 shooters like how Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 started off the trend for Modern WarfareI will never forget playing this game back in June 2002 when i was just 21.

So if you want to play a classic game that started off the WW2 trend that lasted from 2002 to 2007/2008 when it eventually died off and made way for modern warfare games, then this is the game. Also great if your a lover of WW2 games.… Expand

    some of us will probably remeber the original medal of honor on the playstation, medal of honor frontline is very reminiscent of the original, the gameplay borrows heavily from the ps1 classic, with rather impressive level design, all these features combined with impressive (for the time) graphics makes this game highly reccomendable, the game is also rather charming as well, with somesome of us will probably remeber the original medal of honor on the playstation, medal of honor frontline is very reminiscent of the original, the gameplay borrows heavily from the ps1 classic, with rather impressive level design, all these features combined with impressive (for the time) graphics makes this game highly reccomendable, the game is also rather charming as well, with some humor, but that, you will have to look out for yourself, it does have some criticism though, there is no checkpoint system, if you die, its right back to the start for you, but this is only a minor complaint, the game is available for the playstation 2, xbox, and gamecube, with a remastered version available through the medal of honor 2010 special edition, with updated graphics and gameplay, overall i would highly recommend that you buy this game if you have the 6th gen systems, i have all 3 versions and they are all the same with a few minor details, a triumphant game on the consoles of yesterday!… Expand

I had this for Gamecube and one of my mates had it on ps2 and there is quite a big difference controls wise. Gamecube controls are really hard to aim with and you will find yourself either spraying with a machine gun or attempting to hit the enemy and then resulting in, meleeing them. But despite that you will get that hand of it after the first mission. This game is worth every penny and even though it cost me £10 at the time I would happily have paid £20-£30. The reviews speak for themselves. 10,10,10,10,10,10,10,9,10,10,7,10,10,10,10,10,10,10 and then a 0.

    The truth is good FPS games were not exactly plentiful on PS2, something that certainly helped this great game stand out even more.

    The first mission, D-Day landing à la Save Private Ryan, is totally misleading because 15 out of a total of 19 missions are you alone against the German army, always conveniently justified by a briefing that suggests an “undercover assignment”. Briefing    The truth is good FPS games were not exactly plentiful on PS2, something that certainly helped this great game stand out even more.

    The first mission, D-Day landing à la Save Private Ryan, is totally misleading because 15 out of a total of 19 missions are you alone against the German army, always conveniently justified by a briefing that suggests an “undercover assignment”. Briefing which I heeded and stupidly believed, so there was I, always trying a first stealth approach on every mission which failed miserably with the first enemy I shot. The game simply isn’t designed to be played that way, it is a shooter. It’s as absurd thinking you can beat N64’s Goldeneye never being spotted by the enemy. Level design is great but (and?) totally linear. Lots of door that “won’t open” here. I have no problem with it, it’s 2020 and I’m already tired of huge open world experiences that are 70% padding (delivery boy, crafting, collectibles, hunting, fishing, hiking).

    Shooting the weapons is great, you really feel the “weight” thanks to the quality of the sound effects and the enemy animations when hit. Plus the soundtrack by Michael Giacchino is simply outstanding.

    On PC shooters we were used to save our game anytime. Not here, this is hardcore. If you die on a mission, you start from the beginning of it. And some of them take more than half an hour to complete. Imagine my face when I died at the hands of the last pack of Germans. Worth mentioning here I did this recent second playthrough on Hard and obtaining all the gold medals, you can progress faster otherwise. The game is tough from 7th mission on, but completable. I remembered it harder though. When I played it for the first time back in 2003, I recall resorting to lowering difficulty to “Normal” at “The Golden Lion” and got sick of the game when I got stuck at “Arnhem Knights”.

    If you like old school first person shooters (level-structured, medkits as the only way of healing), you can't skip this one.    … Expand

    This game is a gem. In addition to the 1st personal shooter you are a part of the historic narrative of world war ii - each stage reveals the allies progress in the war - filled with news reel clips and more. A must play, but replay value once you beat the game is low - NO online play... so it's a rental.

    The first level is great which makes the rest of the game disappointing. The levels are massive with no save points meaning you have to go through them time and time again and the framerate constantly slows down. But the sound is fantastic, the graphics are good and theres plenty of replay-value. Worth getting.

    A remastered version of Medal of Honor Frontline was included in the PlayStation 3 version of Medal of Honor (2010) with trophies support and HD Graphics. And since 2011 it can be downloaded at the PSN store.

    "Medal of Honor: Frontline" was one of the better first person shooters on the PS2. Graphically, it pushed the console's capabilities to the maximum.

    AI is dumb as hell, shooting mechanic doesn't make sense, bullet spreading is unrealistic and just can't be described. The story is boring, the graphics aren't unusual. Too long realoads. Everything is even worse than the Allied Assault.

    If GoldenEye on the Nintendo 64 was the best shooter from that console era, then Medal of Honor: Frontline was the best shooter of the PS2/Xbox/Gamecube era. The very first level throws you on Omaha Beach during the Invasion of Normandy and much like Saving Private Ryan (and for obvious reasons feels just like the movie) it's complete total chaos and at the time, you actually felt like youIf GoldenEye on the Nintendo 64 was the best shooter from that console era, then Medal of Honor: Frontline was the best shooter of the PS2/Xbox/Gamecube era. The very first level throws you on Omaha Beach during the Invasion of Normandy and much like Saving Private Ryan (and for obvious reasons feels just like the movie) it's complete total chaos and at the time, you actually felt like you were in a war scenario. The game after that shifts gears and becomes more like what the series is known for, a one man army fighting the entire Nazi forces to help win and end the war. Here and there you'll fight along side other allies but for the majority you're on your own. With impressive graphics, enemy AI, TON'S of weapons to use, and movie level soundtrack, Frontline is one of the best games made from EA and one of my personal favorites growing up.… Expand

    This is the game that I have spent my childhood on. I still remember the all the missions and its objectives. Those times, early 2000 was no internet the way we have it now, so it was hard to find out about new games out there and I did replay that Medal of honor way too many times. Was worth every minute. Game from 2002 could easily beat most new games if remake ever would made. If youThis is the game that I have spent my childhood on. I still remember the all the missions and its objectives.

    MOH: Frontline is an amazing game that set the standards for WWII shooters. Shame what happened after this game though.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Medal of Honor: Frontline is not only the best Medal of Honor, but the best FPS. 20 years have passed since its release and no game yet has been able to equal it. Sure, with games like Call of Duty: Vanguard and Battlefield V we can say the World War II games have its days numbered. The plot of the game is just as excellent as the game itself: connected with the first Medal of Honor! And the game has our favourite Medal of Honor character: Jimmy Patterson. Six action-packed missions, from start in Omaha beach (D-Day) to finish in the heart of Germany (The Horten's Nest). I said this in Allied Assault and I will say it in Frontline, the only thing that makes this masterpiece so authentic and epic, apart from the amazing gameplay, it's the geniuses of Steven Spielberg and Michael Giacchino that can make perfection one step ahead.… Expand

    This is absolutely one of the best games I have completed, the story is very good and precise, the difficulty challenging, customizable controls for all ages and without a doubt the best of all are the impressive graphics for the time. I don't regret buying it at all and I'm grateful to have it.

    It bests its predecessors in one key area: Every mission conveys a nail-biting tension that absorbs the player as never before. [June 2002]

    Frontline isn't perfect, though. For one thing there are the always-problematic control issues. A console system with its gamepad just can't replicate the tight controls offered by a mouse and keyboard.

    Despite its occasional appearances, the game is so incredibly linear it hurts.
