Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

[edit] Guide Note

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault is a first-person shooter video game for the PC created by Steven Spielberg. The storyline of the game is set during World War II. It is the third game in the popular Medal of Honor series, and was the first game in the series to be released for the PC.

In the game, the user plays as US Army Ranger Lieutenant Mike Powell. Critics often compare many of the levels, in particular Operation Overlord, Sniper Town, and Guarding of the Bridge, in the game to scenes in the movie Saving Private Ryan. In total there are six different levels, each of which has multiple objectives that must be completed.

The first expansion pack, Spearhead, includes three additional missions in which the user plays as Sergeant Jack Barnes of the 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. All three missions are based in the European theater of the war. This expansion pack also adds British and Russian weapons to the game.

The second expansion pack, Breakthrough, allows users to take control of Sergeant John Baker of the US 34th Infantry Division. The missions in this expansion pack focus primarily on the battles in Northern Africa, as well as Italy. Italian weapons are added as an addition to the British and Russian weapons added in Spearhead.
