Shipping this week: Woo-tiful edition

Posted Sep 4th 2007 9:30AM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Shipping this week

After last week's glut of new games, the offerings have slimmed down once again. Last week was short on shooters though, so we're sure action fans will be pleased with this week's lineup. This week we (finally) get a crack at Stranglehold and Medal of Honor: Airborne. So, which will it be: John Woo Hong Kong action or World War II paratrooping combat action. Of course, there is the possibility of an even bolder choice: none of the above. But where's the fun in that?

If you need help deciding, don't forget that demos are available for both titles on Xbox Live Marketplace.

Key in your watches and prepare for battle kids, Operation Live Jump is go next Friday even if the game ends up being an icky mess.

Not only can they not get their demo out on time, but now they're jumping the gun on the second release date. Sheesh! EA just placed the on again, off again Medal of Honor: Airborne demo onto the XBLM that was supposed to make an appearance on the 23rd only to get pushed back to the 27th, but it is here now on the 25th. Release date ignored, the demo is available to all Xbox Live regions, weighs in at a satisfying 972MBs and features campaign gameplay from the Operation Husky objective. Next time EA better be punctual with these demo release dates ... we're an angry bunch when we don't get what we were promised on time. Happy parachuting!

Medal of Honor: Airborne demo has gone MIA [update 1]

We were promised a Medal of Honor: Airborne demo today, but lo and behold the XBLM shows no such thing. Word on the street is that the PC demo is available, but the Xbox 360 version has been held up in Microsoft certification and will not make a release until sometime next week. We have yet to hear an official announcement from either Microsoft or EA regarding the MoH: Airborne demo, but we're sure they'll spill their guts soon enough. Until then we advise practicing your parachuting skills outside.

Update 1: Xbox.com now says August 27th is MoH: Airborne demo day ... fingers crossed.

Over at Xbox 360 Achievements, there are a slew of new Achievements listed for retail and arcade games alike. They have Two Worlds, Skate, which came straight from EA, Fatal Inertia, NHL 08, & Medal of Honor: Airborne. On the XBLA side of things, there is the cheaper of the two Arcade games that came out today, Space Giraffe, Fatal Fury Special and we're especially happy to see Sonic 2 make it there as well. A cool little reveal about Sonic 2 is that it will have online multiplayer, derived from the splitscreen multiplayer found in the Genesis version. So, those are plenty of lists for you to examine for your next target of 1000 or 200 Gamerscore.

MOH: Airborne demo falls from the sky Aug 23rd

Filed under: News, Xbox Live Marketplace

EA's Medal of Honor: Airborne has been slightly under the radar as of late, with games in the similar war-shooter genre like Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare demanding everyone's attention. So it's only fitting that EA release a demo for MOH: Airborne to prove to everyone that it can hold its own. And that's exactly what they're doing. On August 23rd a MOH: Airborne demo will be released on the XBLM showcasing the campaign level Operation Husky and allow gamers to decide if the latest installment of the Medal of Honor franchise can hold its own. Prepare to jump fanboys, next week we're going Airborne.

MoH: Airborne to offer very non-linear gameplay

Posted Jul 24th 2007 12:45PM by Dustin Burg
Filed under: News

In an interview with Xbox.com, Medal of Honor: Airborne executive producer Patrick Gilmore talks about Airborne's innovation and what makes it different than all the other WWII games on the market. The biggest difference between Airborne and its predecessors is that players begin levels in the air and can parachute down anywhere in the battle. This creates very non-linear gameplay as any angle, objective or tactic can be accomplished any way the player chooses. Gilmore also talks up the game's weapon upgrades and artificial intelligence dubbed "Affordance A.I." which was created to accommodate such non-linear player involvement and acts realistically to attacking and defending from every angle. All of this "innovation" sounds very satisfying and different, but we'll have to check out all the parachuting fun in August before we can label MoH: Airborne teh greatness.

Medal of Honor goes Airborne in August

Posted Apr 25th 2007 5:45PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: News

Electronic Arts has announced that the newest installment of the Medal of Honor series, Medal of Honor: Airborne, will ship out this August. Specifically, the game will ship August 28th. As many may have guessed from the title, Medal of Honor: Airborne focuses on paratroopers. Levels begin with a combat drop in which players can control their descent, allowing for more free form gameplay. For instance, if you land in a combat hot spot and find yourself instantly overwhelmed, you might try landing in a quieter spot next time. The question is, will the parachute mechanic be enough to lift MOH: Airborne above the bloated WWII genre? After all, it seems like WWIII is the way to go these days.

Airborne is online

Filed under: News, Downloads, Xbox Live, Xbox Live Marketplace

A trailer for Medal of Honor Airborne is now available on marketplace. I have not had the luxury of checking it out yet so, somebody get busy describing it in the comments. Why haven't I gotten it yet, you say? I was doing my patriotic duty, or jury duty to be more specific.

In other news, expect a demo of Rockstar's Table Tennis soonish. The demo is set to feature two-player but no Live play. If you haven't experienced the joy of "Pressing the green button," I hope you'll try it out.

[Thanks, X Budd]
