Medal of Honor: Rising Sun (2003 Video Game)
Almost, but no cigar.
4 February 2006
When I bought it, it was one of my first MOH experiences. The opening title of 'Rising Sun' captured my attention. I'll admit it is a disappointment to some of the Medal of Honor fans. To just an ordinary buyer, it'll keep you entertained for a few hours. Compared to Frontline, it just doesn't have the same feel. In Frontline, many people who've never played it before assume that since it's a World War 2 game, it must have blood to be good, or extreme violence... But those death-animations and the tragic music to accompany is much more than anything. In which, Rising Sun doesn't have. It just doesn't seem like a war game... It isn't a horrible game, but to any Medal of Honor fan, it doesn't amount to the legacy Frontline left.

EDIT: After playing it again, I feel kinda... swindled. On some of those Jungle missions, it's not a forest. After looking again, the forest and trees are just a texture on a flat surface. I just feel ashamed for paying 50 big ones for such game.
