Well, get ready for another romp through 1940’s Normandy, people. EA has announced that a playable demo for Medal of Honor Airborne will be available for download on August 23. Xbox 360 owners will be able to get it through the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, while PC gamers can download it from the official Medal of Honor website. The demo will let players run through one mission in the game, called Operation Husky:
A joint allied operation into the island of Sicily, Operation Husky follows Boyd Travers and the 82nd Airborne on their first combat jump on July 11, 1943. After securing and sabotaging four anti-aircraft guns, Boyd is sent to rendezvous with a group of Airborne paratroopers at the edge of the village. Here, they run into the German Heer army, who is attempting to recapture the village from the Airborne. Boyd must push to the end of this small hamlet, eliminating Germans along the way, then find a sniper rifle and eliminate the German commander. He’s successful, but not before the commander has successfully called in reinforcements.
The game is looking to add a little more strategy to the WWII series by allowing players to choose where they will physically begin each mission. The full game should hit store shelves later this year.
Hell yes
! Can’t wait, hope it going to be awesome. The videos look very realistic which I am not very fond of 
. Like the gun kind of moves everywhere.
Thats what we need, another WWII game!
As much as I hate having a moan, Jesus god when will this franchise die?
The original was immense on the Play Station. The atmospheric levels, music and weapons. Then Allied Assault rocked on-to the PC, but then it just kind of dragged on through each generation.
Something tells me this is going to be just another WW2 shooter in an age that could do without any (at least for a year or so!)
WTF with the CONSOLE DEMOS FIRST… Someone shoot me please!
Um, chill, dude. The demo’s going to be out for PC too.
“Xbox 360 owners will be able to get it through the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, while PC gamers can download it from the official Medal of Honor website.”
It’s a simultaneous release for PC and 360. No worries.
