I thought medal of honor vanguard was a great game. It is better than what the critics think, also what others think. Im pretty surprised.
I think it is one of the best war games i have ever played. The game has some of the best sound you will ever hear in a video game, it is very loud. Its cool hearing bullets wizzing by and hearing bombs going off. It really feels like you are shooting people in the game, hearing the bullets hit everyone, and seeing your enemies flop around like rag dolls. And blood spurts quite a bit when you shoot people in the game, its pretty bloody and brutal for a teen rating. And the grenades are cool too, they kind of take care of business, and its cool using the bazooka's to blow away tanks and your enemies. The enviorments are not really destructable, but it is really cool shooting up the place. I love shooting at the walls and stuff, i love seeing the dust fly off of walls when you shoot at them, enemies hide behind things a lot. Its fun to shoot up the place in the game, and mow down a lot of enemies, there is lots of shooting. And you can even punch people too which is kind of funny. Enemies will fall off a lot of things, or be blown out of windows onto the street below.
The story really is not engaging, its just doing one mission after another, there are not really cinematics, just those things where it shows real war footage with the black and white picture, and a guy is narrating it. And it shows quotes and stuff before you start a mission. And it has moments where you jump out of airplanes and land on the ground, and you see many paratroopers and explosions in the air. There are many moments when you have to blast open doors with explosives and blow up anti aircraft guns.
The graphics are alright, but not great. I also like seeing your squad in the action, and seeing them shooting and all that.
I had a good time with the game, but it is pretty short, i had a good time with it.
