News New Medal Of Honor Title Teased In Copies Of Battlefield 3
We know Danger Close has been working on a sequel to Medal Of Honor for a good year now
It seems that EA's strategy to conquer Call Of Duty is to release iterations of Medal Of Honor and Battlefield on alternate years, and true to our prediction EA has teased the latest version of Medal Of Honor inside US copies of Battlefield 3. There's really not...
News Danger Close Confirms The Development Of A New Medal Of Honor
In a surprisingly low-key blog entry on the official Medal Of Honor blog, Danger Close producer Greg Goodrich has confirmed that the studio is working on a new Medal Of Honor title
He wrote: "Yes, Danger Close is currently working on the next Medal of Honor. "Just recently, EA announced that the reboot of Medal of Honor was a big success...

News Medal Of Honor Tops The UK Sales Charts, Stays Frosty

Just Dance 2 jumped into the number three spot, with Wii Party and Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 rounding out the top five. The full chart's after the jump. We reckon Medal Of Honor will stick around for a good few weeks. Medal of Honor...
News First Day Medal Of Honor Sales "Great" In The US, Claims EA
Medal Of Honor has been touted as EA's "Call Of Duty-killer"
While faring well, critically the game hasn't quite lived up to the weight of that kind of expectation. It's still expected to have a strong showing at retail though - and EA's described the game's first day sales as "great". No exact figures were offered, but the publisher did...

News Medal Of Honor Launch Is Oscar Mike, EA Drop Brand New Trailer
We've got to be honest - we never thought we'd be quite this excited about the release of Medal Of Honor this week
But we're actually literally itching for our copy to drop through the letterbox. We think it has something to do with the time of year — it's around this time that there's always a big first-person shooter launch. It's normally a Call...
First Impressions Medal Of Honor on PlayStation 3 Multiplayer
Medal Of Honor's multiplayer is a strange beast
We actually think there's a lot to like about it. But at the same time, it's so very familiar. The game doesn't appear to have any personality of its own; and while it's certainly beyond competent, it's also agonisingly akin to Call Of Duty. Our 16-player hands-on demo saw us checking out the game's...

News For All The Hate Being Lobbied At Medal Of Honor, EA Sure Know How To Make It Look Amazing
People didn't really like Medal Of Honor's beta
It was, after-all, a real beta though. Y'know, a beta where feedback was gathered and changes were made. That isn't the case for most betas these days. Still, whatever public reaction might be to the game; EA sure knows how to make it look awesome. Take the trailer above. It looks properly incredible...
News Beta Feedback Dramatically Changes Medal Of Honor's Multiplayer
Most "betas" these days are multiplayer demos
Sure, they might be put in place to stress-test the servers or balance a couple of weapons but largely, they are a demo. Medal Of Honor's beta was not. EA's shared a gigantic list of changes that have been incorporated into Medal Of Honor's multiplayer component since the beta. Tweaks include improved...
News Britain's Defence Secretary Probably Won't Be Playing Medal Of Honor When It Releases
Shocking
Disgusting. Angry. Tasteless. These are all the words of Britain's defence secretary, Liam Fox, when describing EA's Medal Of Honor reboot. Apparently he's not too happy that players can opt to fight as the Taliban in the game's multiplayer component — it's very "un-British" apparently. Its shocking that someone would think...
News Sony Launches New Gaming Headsets, Come With A Free Copy Of Medal Of Honor

The DR-GA500 comes with support for Dolby Pro Logic IIx, offering 7.1 3D surround sound effects. The other, labelled the DR-GA200, promises superb sound quality at a lower budget. Neither of the headsets have been priced, but we're assuming they're...
News Debut Medal Of Honor Campaign Footage Is Surprisingly Rather Good
Hands up if you thought the Medal Of Honor reboot was going to be a weak Call Of Duty rip-off? A few of you, fair enough
You're all right of course, except for the weak part. This debut single-player campaign footage is surprisingly good. Sure, it's all a bit "dudebro", but whatever. The shooting looks good, and the visuals are pretty...
News Linkin Park Up The Ante, Team Up With Medal Of Honor
This trailer made us a little sick in our mouth

News Because Medal Of Honor Needed More Linkin Park...
Just like Eminem and Call Of Duty; Linkin Park's teamed up with Medal Of Honor to provide some hard-hitting tunes that will really make you think about the consequences of war

In somewhat of an unexpected announcement, EA Los Angeles has revealed the creation of a new studio: "Danger Close"

Feature Multiplayer Shooters Stress Me The Heck Out -- "Twiggy" The Push Square Opinionator
I just don't get it
As a reviewer, I can see the positives and negatives in every game I play. But on a personal level, I just don't get multiplayer shooters. I'm talking about the games that have Team Deathmatch as the default game-mode — your Modern Warfare 2s, Medal Of Honors and even Uncharted 2s. I've always questioned whether I truly have...
E3 2010 Sony Push Multiplatform Games Hard
One of the most surprising elements of Sony's E3 press conference yesterday, was the enthusiasm with which they pushed multiplatform titles

News Medal Of Honor Reboots Contemporary Conflicts On October 12th In USA, 15th In Europe
How would you like to play a Call Of Duty game that's not got Call Of Duty on the box? No - not Respawn Entertainment's new project, nor the half-hearted Modern Warfare 2 (which totally had Call Of Duty on the box)
We're talking about EA's Medal Of Honor reboot, which couldn't look more like a Call Of Duty game if it ran out into the street naked...

News So What You're Trying To Tell Me Is That Medal Of Honor Is Call Of Duty?
Oh look - it's a new trailer for Medal Of Honor
It features guns, shooting and some American-dude talking about war and stuff. It looks a lot like Call Of Duty. Which is actually a good thing we suppose. Though we kind of wish someone would make a shooter about big monsters and stuff instead of military men. Oh well.

We know we said it does, but it actually doesn't
Blah blah. EA has clarified that their Medal Of Honor reboot doesn't actually have two separate single-player campaigns, more over it has one seamless campaign with multiple playable characters. A bit like that other franchise. Oh darn, what's it called? Oh yeah - Call Of Duty. Surprise!"We want...
