Medal of Honor European Assault (Game Cube, 2005)

I am giving this a poor rating because the Lord's name is used in vain in the game. This was enough to completely ruin an otherwise good game for me.

Aside from that, the graphics were okay and the game plays through well. Unlike Rising Sun, there is no save points which can be very annoying when you spend 30-40+ minutes on a mission just to have to replay it (especially the last mission).

One of the new features in the game is "adrenaline." It offers brief invincibility, unlimited ammo, and more enemy damage, but it seemed pretty much useless for most parts of the game. Another new feature is the ability to walk through your squad members instead of having to push them out of the way. Although this can be helpful, if you both occupy the same spot they can block your view.

One of the most popular complaints would be the AI of your squad members. They don't listen well to what you direct them to do and will run right in the middle of gunfire. This is annoying since they are helpful in the game but you don't want to waste all your medkits trying to keep them alive.

Basically it's not a whole lot different from the rest of the Medal of Honor games. It does seem a little harder then the other games in the MOH series and this was the first time I can remember seeing cut scenes that have actual WWII footage in them.

I would not have bought this game, or any similar game, if I knew the game characters were going to use Jesus's name in vain, though.
