...given that the last one smelled so bad I don't think too many will be interested in this development. Am I the only person that played Rising Sun for about 15 minutes then threw it in the bin???

well I have to agree... bit of a waste alright... Rising Sun had a lot more potential. At least at this stage now that EA are at the bottom with this series things can only get better...

as for pre-order... hmm dont think so, definitely wait for about 3 reviews first...

I got tired after the 1sr expansion. Havent even played the second one even though I bought it. (PC)
They really should stop milking this title and make a new engine or borrow one like the Source engine and make MOH 2 or something!
Maybe the Korean war? or a fictional WWIII!!!

In all fairness the core development team that created MOH:Allied Assault for the PC split years ago, that is why you have Call of Duty which is an excellent FPS (completed by the old core team) and the MOH dirge that came subsequently which is from the EA churn factory.

I just bought a xbox last week and borrowed a copy of rising sun from my mate.
The medal of Honor games have been really good to play on the pc , but I just dont think they are suited to playing with a gamepad.
Perhaps the Liksang keyboard convertor gadget would make this game a lot better , but at the moment I would never dream of buying it when you have to control it with the gamepad.

I've not entertained buying a MOH game on a console since the original PS1 game. The PS1 original was good and the PC MOHAA was superb but I played Frontline on the XBox and thought it was dire with the Joypad.

Can't say i'm excited to here that there's another MOH game on it's way - Call of Duty is the daddy now IMO.
