Medal of Honor Rising Sun

this is a great war game with great co-op play. i think the other two lack the co-op. you also get too shoot down enemy planes which is one of the best parts. the difficulty is hard even on easy but it makes it more fun. play all three of them.

The game tells a great story. You feel just like you are a soldier in World War II. The game takes place in Asia : Thailand, Singapore and the Philippines, and also in Pearl Harbor. You walk around and try to find enemy plans for invasions. You send information you have learned back to base. As you look for information you are shot at by the enemy particularly the Japanese. You fight back with machine guns, pistols and poison dart guns. It is really realistic and exciting. It rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MOH Rising Sun is the 2nd of three MOH games released on the Gamecube. The storyline focuses on a fictional character who takes part in important battles of WWII and is eventually recruited for secret missions that take place throughout the Pacific. In addition to the missions, the game also includes a 4-player battle mode. So far, this is all standard MOH protocol.

After having played all three of the MOH games on Gamecube, Rising Sun remains my personal favorite and is the only one of the three that I still own. Rising Sun's graphics and audio are comparable to those of Frontline, but inferior to those of European Assault. Still, Rising Sun has two features lacking in the other two installments: co-op missions and fully customizable controls.

The co-op mode allows 2 players to play the same missions available in single player mode. This adds significant replay value to the game, as I was able to go back and re-play the missions with friends. The customizable controls allow you to map every button exactly as you want it. Additionally, the controls can be saved to a player profile, so your friends can customize as well and save their setup for future use. I found this feature to be very beneficial for friends who were used to playing other FPS games, which tend to have varying controller configurations.

If you're only interested in the story mode, any of the three MOH games on Gamecube will do. But, if you're looking for replay value and you enjoy playing with a buddy (or two or three), Rising Sun is your best bet.

So, to start out, I bought this game to add to my gamecube collection about 4 to 5 months ago, and have been enjoying it ever since. On vacation I wake up early to play it, and play it all day. The game is action packed, and alot of fun to play. The campaign was a little too easy, beat it in about 4 days. However, the multiplayer mode never ceases to please me. I have 2 other brothers, so we play on split screen alot. I love all the maps we have to play on, and the AI, when cranked up all the way, is TOUGH. Lots of fun, lots of enjoyment, low price. GET IT AND COMPLETE YOUR MOH COLLECTION!!

Ok, so I'm a Medal of Honor FREAK. I have been playing them for years, and I've been COMPLETELY satisfied and MORE for years. That has not changed with this game. I have been playing this game for about a week now, and so far it has packed all the adrenaline, emotion, gameplay, and graphics of the other MOH games.

A must play.
