The best first person shooter on Playstation has returned in Medal of Honor Underground.
This time you play a woman in the french resistance against the evil Nazi empire.
You’ll fight in levels across Europe and in North Africa and go up against not only Nazi storm troopers on foot, but in tanks, half tracks and motorcycles.
Levels are huge with many objectives to fulfill before exiting a level.
Most all the weapons from the first MoH return and added are a crossbow, petrol bombs and a Panzerfaust (a German bazooka).
The enemy AI is a lot smarter then the first MoH. (Sometimes to smart for their own good)
Nazi’s have better aim, catch bombs and throw them back and duck and cover a lot more.
While this does make a excellent challenge, it can get frustrating sometimes watching your self die over and over again.
MoH:U has all that made the first MoH so great. A heart pounding sound track that fells like your in a movie.
Background sounds that make you fell that your really in Germany in the war.
The undercover disguises are also back. This time your a German reporter and pretend to take pictures. If the Nazi doesn’t believe you, sometimes you can flatter him by taking photos of him, then shoot him when he’s distracted. Otherwise he’ll call all his buddies and blow you away.
The Graphics are a equal match to the first MoH. Everything looks and fells true to the era.
The multiplayer returns and is a blast to play against other players. This is one of the best Multiplayer shooters on the PSX.
Also returning are the secrets. Secret modes, multiplayer characters, and cheats are all here.
To any one looking for game that feels like a war movie or couldn’t get enough of the first MoH this game is for you. MoH is a great series and would welcome many more to this or future gaming systems.
